Welcome to today's English lesson on the topic of Simple Present. To begin, let's get up and moving.

Classroom Activity:

Stand up and walk around the room. When the music stops, find the closest person to you and introduce yourself using the simple present tense. For example, "Hi, my name is Jane and I love reading books."

Now, let's sit back down and review what we just did. What tense did we use to introduce ourselves? That's right, we used the simple present tense.

Explanation:

The simple present is used to talk about things that are regularly true or habitual. For example, "I brush my teeth twice a day" or "She enjoys playing soccer."

Practice:

Now, let's practice using the simple present tense together. Complete the following sentences with the correct verb tense:

  1. My family ___ dinner together every night. (eats/eat)
  2. The sun ___ in the sky during the day. (shines/shine)
  3. Tom ___ basketball with his friends on the weekends. (plays/play)
  4. I ___ my homework every night. (do/does)
  5. She ___ to school by bus every day. (goes/go)

Great job! You have successfully reviewed and practiced using the simple present tense.
