GRAMMAR. PAST SIMPLE (REGULAR VERBS).


Remember!


To form the past simple of a verb we add -ed to the verb.


Invent-invented.
Work-worked.
Look-looked.
Play-played.


Rules:


- When a verb ends with consonant-vowel-consonant, we double the final consonant and add -ed.
(Cuando un verbo acaba en consonante-vocal-consonante, doblamos la última consonante y añadimos -ed).


Travel-travelled.


- When a verb ends with -e, we only add -d to form the past simple.
(Cuando un verbo acaba en -e, sólo añadimos -d para formar el pasado simple).


Dance-danced.


- When a verb ends with -y after a consonant, we change -y into -i and we add -ed.
(Cuando un verbo acaba en -y tras una consonante, cambiamos -y por -i y añadimos -ed).


Cry-cried.
 
Watch these videos about the use of the past simple.

Comparative of adjectives (short and long adjectives)

Hi everyone! 

In our class we are studying the comparative form of short and long adjectives.
Let's remember how to form it:

Short adjectives:

- We add -ER to the adjective, which must be followed by the particle "than".

Example: José Luís is taller than Carmen.

- When the adjective ends with CVC, we duplicate the final consonant and add -er to the adjective.
Example: Spain is bigGer than Portugal.

- When the adjective ends with "y", it becomes "i" and we add -er.
Example: Tom is happier than Hannah.


Long adjectives:

We add "more" before the adjective, followed by the particle "than".

Example: Lisa is more intelligent than Bart.

NOW, PRACTISE!


Have a look at this presentation. Write comparative sentences and check.
