Learning goals

After this lesson:

you know how to use the present simple in questions

you have learned new vocabulary 

Present simple

You use the present simple to talk about habits, facts and things that happen regularly.

You use the base form of a verb --> to walk becomes walk

I cycle to school every day

Present simple

to be changes more

 

I am

you are

she/he/it is

we are

they are

Present simple

To make a negative sentence you add do not to the sentence

I do not/don't walk to school every day

in a sentence using to be you add not

you are not/aren't old

Present simple

To make questions using the present simple you add the verb to do at the beginning of the sentence. 

I like that videogame --> Do you like that videogame? 

You love to sleep --> Do you love to sleep?

Present simple 

If the sentence contains the verb to be, you do not add the verb to do to make a question. The verb to be should be put at the beginning of the sentence.

They are happy --> Are they happy?

That is your father. --> Is that your father?
