Be: I am, you are, she is…

Objective

The lesson

To give your name, your age or your job, use the verb be: I am, you are, he / she / it is, we / they are. When we speak, we often say I'm, she's, they're. The negative is am not, isn't, aren't.

Lesson 2 · 40 min

My day at home: the present simple

Objective

Describe your daily routine with the present simple.

The lesson

We use the present simple for habits. With I, you, we and they, the verb doesn't change: I get up at 8. With he, she and it, add -s: she works, he watches. For the negative, use don't or doesn't + verb. Useful words: always, usually, sometimes, never.

Worked example

Every morning, I get up at half past seven. I have breakfast and I check my school messages. At nine, I start my English lesson on my laptop. My sister works in a bakery, so she gets up very early. We never watch TV in the morning. In the afternoon, I usually go for a walk.

Listen to the model

Look at the verbs: I get up, I start (no -s), but my sister works, she gets up (-s with she).
