Hello!

So what do you do on Wednesday morning? I am sure you go to school, just every week day.

In our last lesson we talked about what Mr.( the man) and Mrs. (the woman) do at weekends.
We talked about Saturday morning and Saturday afternoon, Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon. 

When we talk about days we say ON. On Monday, on Tuesday, on Wednesday and so on.

Students have a little difficulty remembering that when we are talking about somebody in the 3rd person singular - somebody who is not you or I like he or she or my friend or my brother or my mother- we add an s to the verb. We say:

My mother cooks spaghetti on Saturday.

My friend Joe plays football with me on Friday afternoon.

Ana goes (go is special and we add es instead of s) to the cinema on Sunday afternoon.

We reviewed daily actions with the flashcards and played a game with them. And we watched a video some of the students already knew from last year. It is a fun video. You can watch it now if you want:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUXkj6j6Ezw

Nene told us about Darkred timetable, what he does each day of the week. And that's what Sergio, who took Darkred home for the week, has to do. Have a great week Darkred and you two enjoy yourselves!

Hello again!

Yesterday we continued studying actions that we do regularly: that means that we repeat them every once in a while: every day, sometimes, often, etc.

Like have lunch, we do it every day. Or have a music or a judo lesson, we have the lesson every week.

We studied 2 ways of asking questions. When we are talking to somebody and say:

What do you do after school?

or

Do you go school on Saturday?

When we are talking about somebody (1 person):

Does your brother walk to school?

Does he drink milk for breakfast?

Does your father clean the car every week?


HOMEWORK

1.Follow this link and do the exercise. I hope it helps you remember when to put the s at the end of the verb.http://www.agendaweb.org/verbs/present-simple/index.html

2. Say 4 things you do after school. Example: First I have a glass of milk and some cookies; then, I do my homework; then I ride my bike with a friend; then I eat dinner with my family.

Then, ask your brother or sister or a friend: What do you do after school? And write what your brother/sister/friend tell you.
Example: First, Juan does his homework, then he plays video games; then, he eats dinner and then, he sleeps.
