Abstract: The first topic that students have learned in the English language is parts of speech. The curriculums for primary schools in countries that have taught the English language as a foreign language (second language) are designed to teach students firstly how to distinguish between words. Students for these grades have learned to classify words as nouns, subjects, objects, verbs, adverbs, etc. The parts of speech in the English language are categories of words based on their functions and roles within a sentence. They classify all words in the language and are also known as word categories. These are the building blocks of grammar. Learning the parts of speech is a step toward understanding sentence structure.The second topic that primary school students have to recognize perfectly is the tenses of verbs. Al-Hamash, K. I., & Al-Jobouri, A. (1990). Both topics are involved in grammar, which is the center of the structure of sentences in the English language. These sentences lead students to read, write, speak, and listen to the English language successfully. Teachers of the English language can teach students the importance of parts of speech and tenses of verbs by using new strategies and approaches in a unified lesson: comprehension passages.
