Unit 7: Conditionals and Vocab

The goal of today's lesson:

• to know the difference between different sentences with 'if.....'
• in short, know all about the conditionals
• to be able to use these sentences in different situations

'If' statements - 4 kinds:

• 0: facts - If water reaches 100 degrees, it boils.
• 1: real or likely situations - If a soldier kills the ogre, he will be named champion.
• 2: unlikely or hypothetical situations - If I won the lottery, I would go travelling around the world.
• 3: situations that cannot be changed - If I had studied for the test, I would have passed. (But I didn't study, so I didn't pass.) 

Fact: If + present simple = > present simple

condition: If + present simple (If I win)

result: present simple
(don't eat)

Facts:   0 conditional
