PRESENT CONTINUOUS for PRIMARY SCHOOLERS

Hello, young ones! How are you doing today? How are things doing this week at school? What are your mom and dad doing at the moment while you are reading this layout? Wow, it seems that I have just turned into a nosy journalist all of a sudden, doesn't it? Well, don't panic! This is neither an interview nor a test.

The purpose of all these questions is to give the proper introduction to the Present Continuous Tense. This is why we have started asking so many questions. We will be studying and practicing the Present Continuous through this layout today. First, we are learning how to express actions at the moment of speaking as well as describing what we see in a picture or in a real scenario. Secondly, we are going to do some exercises. Let's start, then!

The Very Hungry Caterpillar: Story time

Nature is mysterious and magical. It's impossible not to be mesmerized by its diversity and the fantastic ways it enhances wildlife on our planet. Nature itself is caretaking and jealous of the flora and fauna that sparkle in the universe.

Today, we'll be working on this beautiful story: The Very Hungry Caterpillar, designed, illustrated, and written by Eric Carle. Storytelling has been, for centuries, the most effective introduction for children to appreciate reading and books. Most of our grandparents and parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, teachers and friends were our first storytellers. Let's enjoy this story by watching the following animated film.

GERUNDS and INFINITIVES

Hey everyone! Summer is finally here! So that means longer days, warmer weather, and all the fun that comes with it. Beach days, countryside picnics, family visits, camping adventures, or just relaxing with friends under the sun may be your coolest options these days to come. Doesn’t that sound amazing?

Today, we’re going to tap into that summer spirit by talking about the things we love doing during this season. Besides, we’ll use English grammar to help us express those ideas more clearly and naturally, focusing today on Gerunds and Infinitives. These two grammar tools may sound technical, but they’re actually super useful in real-life conversation and writing. Once you understand how they work, you’ll be able to say things like “I enjoy swimming in the ocean,” “She wants to travel this summer,” “They decided to go camping.” Cool, right? Let’s break it down.

Let’s start with a fun video that shows how gerunds and infinitives are used in real-life situations. It’ll give you a clear, simple explanation with examples you can relate to. Let’s dive in and make your English shine as bright as the summer sun!

Introductory video

Remember, you can pause it every time you need.

Take down notes for further exercises.

Enjoy it!

PAST SIMPLE TENSE

Hello everyone! Great news seeing you around again. Let's start with today's meeting about telling past events in English.

We, humans, spend most of our lives looking back on the past events we have lived, whether good or bad. The reason why may be longing for the best memories we have experienced so we have treasured them in our seven-keys chest. Whenever we meet friends or relatives, we start talking about the events that have happened before: the last week, the last summer, or just two minutes ago.

Although the Past Simple Tense is one of the most studied tenses at school, many of you easily forget how to use the correct spelling while writing, and pronunciation while speaking or get confused between regular or irregular verbs. Today, we will be reviewing the Past Simple Tense through interactive exercises.

FILL in the BLANKS
The following exercise will help you remember

some verbs used in the context of the Past Simple Tense.
