Hello!

Yesterday most students had done their homework but there was a bit of confusion about how to do it. So finally some students had drawn lost of clocks but had not written down the time in the clock.

Oh well! You are all learning how to tell the time, I have no doubt.

Besides checking homework, which took quite a while, we did some of the exercises in the book. Students had to complete some questions and answers about Molly' routine. Most students did quite well.

Remember,  we use the Present Simple to talk about routines, actions we do everyday or often. To ask questions in the Present Simple we use an auxiliary verb: do. When we talk about one person who is not part of the conversation (3rd Person Singular) we use does, not do.
To make a questions we use

First:                                                           do                 or                  does
Second: subject (or person)                    I/you             or        he/she/Name: Mary
Third:  verb                                    Ex:    get up, go, have, sleep

The question:  do you go ...?        or       does he/she go...?

That's easy, isn't it?

After completing the exercises students wrote 5 things they do everyday and the time when they do those things. Example: I get up at half past seven.
Then, they interviewed a partner: What do you do first? and wrote down the information:

get up    7: 30

When they were finished the whole group got together again and they asked other students:

What does X (Pablo, David, etc.) do first?
and the student answered:
X gets up at half past seven. (with the -s at the end of the verb)

HOMEWORK

Put these words in the correct order to form sentences;
1. get/I/at/7/up/o'clock 
2. I/a/at/shower/have/o'clock/8
3. breakfast/at/he/has/half/past/8 
4. goes/school/to/she/at/o'clock/9 
5. has/she/lunch/at/o'clock/12
6. past/half/3/home/I/go/at 
7. dinner/have/I/o'clock/5/at 
8. bed/I/to/at/go/o'clock/9 
 
Ask a question for each sentence. Examples: 1. What time do you get up?

4. What time does she go to school?
