1º ESO Daily Routines

0 comentarios
Objetivos de la actividad:

- En esta actividad recordaremos como se construye el presente simple (Present Simple).
- También recordaremos cuales son sus usos.
- Luego redactaremos un breve texto sobre nuestras propias rutinas diarias usando el presente simple.


PRESENT SIMPLE

- FORMATION


We use the infinitive of the verb. In the 3rd person Singular (he, she, it - or a name) we put an -s at the end of the infinitive.
infinitive - 3rd person Singular (he, she, it) infinitive + -s

Affirmative sentences:
I/we/you/they play football.

He/she/it plays football.

NOTE: he, she, it - Do not forget the -s.


Negative sentences:
We use the auxiliary do.

I/we/you/they do not play football.

He/she/it does not play football.

NOTE: We often use short forms in negative sentences in the Simple Present:


I/we/you/they don't play football.

He/she/it doesn't play football.


Questions:
Do I/we/you/they play football?

Does he/she/it play football?

- USE:

The simple present expresses an action in the present taking place once, never or several times. It is also used for actions that take place one after another and for actions that are set by a timetable or schedule. The simple present also expresses facts in the present.
