I've been .....

shoppingI had a number of things to do on my last day of my home live in Minnesota. You can see one of my activities in this video. Notice, that I began by using the present perfect to make a general statement about the activity. The reason I did that was that I had just finished what I was doing and you could still see the results of what I did. After that, I used the past tense to describe each of the parts of the activity.

1. Watch the video and finish this sentence:

I've been ......

2. What verb did I use to describe the four things I did during this activity?

3. What four things did I show in the video?
