Short explanation

Present Simple

vs Present Continuous

Working alone

I found the explanation + exercises we did together:

• VERY easy=exercise 4 on p. 5-6
• Okay-ish, it rung a bell=exercise 2 on p. 3-4
• Not quite sure yet=exercise 1 on p. 2

Done early=Breeze through the exercises you

haven't done from the list above.

Working together (10m)

• Work on p. 3-4, exercise 2.
• You don't need to write down the whole sentence, but make sure you write down part of the sentence if the word order or something like that changes.

Done early? Log on to lessonUp and find something to do on your chromebook.
