In a sentence, you know if it is a fact or routine by looking at signal words.
Words like everyday, never, always, every Wednesday tell you it is about a routine. It happens often.
If there are no signal words, the sentence tells you a fact.
Slide 18 - Slide
Look at the words below. Which ones are signal words for the Present Simple and which ones are not?
Signal word
Not a signal word
Next Friday

Questions
To make a present simple question, you have to put the verb do in front of the sentence:

If the subject is a he, she or it, you have to use does. Also, look at what happens with the +s of the original verb.
Bob plays football. becomes Does Bob play football?

The Present Simple
Negations
Now you know how to make a normal present simple sentence and questions in the present simple.
Now we are going to look at negations.
Slide 30 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
Negations tell you that something is not happening.
You can see the word not in negations, but almost always as a short form n't, as in don't or doesn't.
An example of a negation is:
She doesn't see very well.
Slide 31 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
So you make a negation by adding don't or doesn't to the sentence. Think about the SHIT Rule!
So not like this:
I like not cookies.
But like this:
I don't like cookies
Slide 32 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
Look at what happens to the verb in this sentence when we turn it into a negation:
He plays video games every day.
He doesn't play video games every day.
The +s disappears after doesn't. The same happened with the questions!
