Speaking
Talk about habits in your family. You can guide you with these questions:

1. How many people do you live with? Who are they? Which are their ages?
2. What do you do in the morning/ afternoon/evening/ at night?
3. Do you like your family’s habits? Why/ why not?
4. Talk about the activities you like doing with your family.
Eg: In the weekends, we like…

5. Describe the different pictures. What can you see? Are you in favour/ against
family’s diversity? Why/ Why not?
Grammar awareness: The Present Simple
➔ When do we use the present simple?
- Talk about general facts that are true and will be true for some time.
Eg:She lives in London./ The earth travels round the sun.
- Talk about repeated actions or habits. Eg: He gets up at six-thirty every
morning./ I always cry during romantic films.
- To tell the stories of films and plays, and in sports commentaries. Eg:
So then he makes his way back to Rome and becomes a gladiator. /
Beckham passes the ball to Owen. Owen scores!
- To talk about future schedules and arrangements. Eg: The bus leaves
at ten o’clock. / Her exam finishes at two o’clock.
- Some verbs usually take the present simple rather than the present
continuous, whatever the context.
- Mental states: believe, know, realise, recognise, suppose, think,
understand.
- Wants and likes: want, like, love, hate, need, prefer.
- Appearance: appear, seem, look like.
