history: I had given my two older daughters a small math assignment to do in my absensents.  When I returned home they were playing video games and the work had not been done. I had to run some errands.  While gone I instructed my older daughters to complete some math assignments.
current: I see.. did they complete them?
next: When I returned I found them playing video games, the math work was not even attempted.  I tunred their stuff off and we did it together.
