Hello dear pupil and welcome to my English class!
In the last lesson, you learned about the meaning and the use of the Present Simple tense and how to make sentences in the positive form. Example: 'Teachers usually teach English face to face'.
Please take a look at the photo above. Tell me anything that comes up in your mind. Just a few words are good enough.
Well.... What comes up in my mind are changes, face-to-face learning, online learning, the internet, etc.
Because of the Covid-19, there is a huge change in education: Teachers don't teach face to face anymore. Pupils don't go to school. Are these 2 sentences in positive form? No, they are in the negative form. Negative form betekent ontkennende vorm.
So... How to teach and where to learn? Do teachers teach online? Do pupils stay at home to study online? Are the sentences in bold in positive form? No. In which form are they? How do you know it? The answer is that they are in the question form (oftewel vragende vorm) because of the question mark (?).
But how to make sentences in negative and question form? What can you do with the Present Simple tense and after this lesson? In today's lesson, we will go through the negative and question form of this tense, and practice using it in contexts.
In the introduction clip below, I'll review the last lesson, present the goals and the overview of today's lesson, and tell you briefly how to work with this website.
