HELLO!

Hope you are well and that you had a great Christmas break :)

Grades are on their way, they will take some time though (49 x 10 minutes = 490 min / 60 = 8 hours and a bit of marking time)

Today

No more new stuff: revision

First: go through everything and make a test together

the goal: help you think about which tense to pick, challenge you to look at grammar from another angle, end up with lots of practice material 

Leftover time: time for you

Use the document in classroom

I put a document in Classroom with a list of topics

We will go through everything together with questions here in LessonUp

As we go: add to your own notes

As we go: make quiz questions and put them down to share

Present simple Present continuous Present perfect Present perfect continuous	Past simple Past continuous Past perfect Past perfect continuous	Future with will Future with going to Future perfect Future perfect continuous	Passive: present simple Passive: present continuous Passive: present perfect Passive: past simple Passive: past continuous Passive: past perfect

with "work": I am ___right now

I ___ never ____ here before, love the view though!

Present tenses

- facts

- ongoing things

- link past and present

- link past and present with focus on duration

I have been waiting for you

I have waited for you

Question time

1. Make four test questions that use: X present simple X present continuous X present perfect X present perfect continuous

2. When do you use these? Think of a situation in which you might need these forms and create one or more writing exericises.

Past tenses

- same types as present

- but remember the auxiliaries! 

I am working

I have worked

Do I work?

when making a past tense, which verbs change?

making test questions: problems

I am ___right now

I always ____ here, what are you talking about?  

I ___ never ____ here before, love the view though!

Turn these in to past tense test questions:

I am ___right now
I always ____ here, what are you talking about?
I ___ never ____ here before, love the view though!

making test questions: problems

I am ___right now

I always ____ here, what are you talking about?  

I ___ never ____ here before, love the view though!

- signposting language such as right now

- other verbs in the sentence: what tense are they in? what are you talking about

- when moving the sentence to the past, does it even make sense still? 

Function of tenses

present continuous: ongoing things	past continuous: one thing was going on, then got interrupted
present perfect: relevance of past activtity for now	past perfect: .....

what does a past perfect do?

Zero conditional

first conditional

second conditional

third conditional

You have learned 3 types of condtionals. Zero conditional: general truth. First conditional: to describe what is possible/likely in the present or future. Second conditional;talk about sth that is very unlikely to happen in the fure. Third cond: to describe sth in the past that could have happend but it didn’t, or that should haven’t happend but did. These types of conditionals are fantastic and they talk about events in their own time frame: Present, future, and past.

Zero conditional

First conditional

Second conditional

Third conditional

Facts

Things that are generally true

Events in the past that did not happen
