Hello everyone! 🙂
Monday:
This week we are going to start by look at -er, ing, and -ed endings.
Before we get started with the Powerpoint explanation and games I’ve prepared, first I want you to answer the following questions:
When do we use -ing endings with verbs?
Can you explain the structure of the different verb tenses that use -ing endings?
When do we add -er to a verb tense to turn it into a noun? Can you think of examples?
Is it correct to say «I am teacher» in English? What’s missing from this sentence?
How is this different to Spanish?
When do we add -ed to verbs and why?
How do we pronounce different verbs which end in -ed?
Now let’s go through the powerpoint explanation, test you knowledge and play a game!
Wednesday:
Today we are going to look at the difference between the use of the verbs «do» and «make» in English.
First I’d like you to answer some questions for me:
What do the verbs «do» and «make» mean exactly?
Can you give as many examples as possible of the very «do» being used in a sentence?
Can you give as many examples as possible of the very «make» being used in a sentence?
Is there any general rule we can apply do know when we have to use «do» and when we have to use «make»?
Will there be exceptions to this general rule?
Now let’s look at the Powerpoint Presentation which explains the use of these verbs in more details and let’s practice separating different household activities (chores) depending on whether they take «do» or «make».
Finally, in the second part of the Powerpoint presentation, let’s look a little at phonetics and practise our pronunciation of household vocabulary.
