Bonjour Sirine,

- Voix Passive - Passé Simple:

Les gardes amenèrent le chevalier devant le roi the guards brought the knight before the king 

  -> le chevalier fut amené devant le roi par les gardes = the knight was brought before the king by the guards

Le chien suivit les enfants dans le jardin = The dog followed children in the garden

 -> les enfants furent suivis dans le jardin par le chienthe children got followed in the garden by the dog

- Here is a link to find out how to form La Voix Passive with compound tenses, such as Le Passé Composé: how-to-form-the-passive-voice-with-compound-tenses-la-voix-passive

Also, I can see that you have not taken the sorter test yet. I would encourage you to do so as it will help in creating a personal studyplan for you.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !

I would like to second Jim's link to https://leconjugueur.lefigaro.fr/verbe/avoir_voix-passive.html

It helped me immensely when I discovered the passive voice.  I had used the site before, but hadn't noticed that is includes inks for the passive voice, etc.
