2.1My day

These are things we do every day. Say them aloud.

Five children: one doing homework, one brushing his teeth, one having a shower, one getting dressed, one combing her hair — Everyday activities

Textbook, p. 15.

comb my hair	in the morning
go to school	in the morning
have lunch	in the afternoon
do my homework	after school

Song: Mike's day

Textbook, p. 15.

In the song, Mike always gets up at eight o'clock. He always has lunch at three o'clock. He sometimes plays football with Keith and Howard. He never has a shower!

Always, sometimes, never

These words tell us how often we do something.
always = every time sometimes = some of the time never = not at all

Bars for always (full), sometimes (half) and never (empty) with example sentences — A full bar is always. Half a bar is sometimes. An empty bar is never.

Textbook, p. 15.

Who	how often	action
I / You / We / They	always sometimes never	brush my teeth. do my homework. play football.
He / She	always sometimes never	brushes his teeth. does her homework. plays football.

Put it in the middle. The word goes between the person and the action: I always get up at 7 o'clock. She never plays football.

With he and she, the action word gets an -s or -es.
He combs his hair. She brushes her teeth. He does his homework. He has a shower.
Not: ~~He comb his hair.~~ ~~She have a shower.~~

Mike plays football on Monday and Friday only. Choose the right word: Mike (always / sometimes / never) plays football.

Mike sometimes plays football. He plays on some days, not every day.

Correct the mistake: "She always brush her teeth."

She always brushes her teeth. (She needs -es.)
