1 Grammar in a nutshell

2 These words usually come at the beginning of sentence. Who are you?Who What would you do?What Where are we? Where When can you call me?When Why would he do that?Why How is this possible?How Interrogatives http://youtu.be/He82NBjJqf8http://youtu.be/He82NBjJqf8 (3:15) Wie Wat Waar Wanneer Waarom Hoe MIND: There is an extra ‘w’ in English: which (welke) NOT witch! You use which when you can make a limited choice. Which T-shirt do you want? This one or that?

3 1. ________________________________do you want? I’d like a box of chocolate. 2. ________________________________ old is this building? It's about 200 years. 3. __________________________________ did the packet come from? It came from London. 4. _________________________________ hand do you write with? With my right hand. 5. ________________________________ ‘s bag are you carrying? It’s Judy’s. Exercise

4 Got it? Brilliant! Now do exercises 1A and 1B (p. 76/77 WB)

5 We have already discussed personal pronouns before. Remember this guy? (We’ll see him again!) I’m sure you all remember… Anyway, let’s check out this crazy song: http://youtu.be/Eu1ciVFbecw (3:01)http://youtu.be/Eu1ciVFbecw Personal Pronouns

6 Use the correct personal pronouns. Watch the words in brackets. Example: ___ often reads books. (Lisa) Answer: She often reads books. 1)………… is dreaming. (George) 2)………… is green. (the blackboard) 3)………… are on the wall. (the posters) 4)………… is running. (the dog) 5)………… are watching TV. (my mother and I) 6)………… are in the garden. (the flowers) 7)………… is riding his bike. (Tom) 8)………… is from Bristol. (Victoria) 9)………… has got a brother. (Diana) 10) Have …………. got a computer, Mandy? He It They It We They He She you Short Exercise Now you do exercises 2A + 2B (p. 77 WB)!

7 Articles The and a/an are called articles. We divide them into "definite" and "indefinite" like this: Definite (de / het) When you talk about one thing in particular Indefinite (een) When you talk about one thing in general Think of the sky at night: in the sky we see 1 moon and millions of stars. That’s why we say: I saw the moon last night, but: I saw a star last night.

8 Look! It’s our friend again :) http://youtu.be/urq83C363uMhttp://youtu.be/urq83C363uM (5.24) Careful: this guy is American, so sometimes his accent (with ‘the’) is different! When do you choose ‘a’ and when ‘an’? Use ‘an’ when the next word starts with a vowel (klinker) sound. A melonAn apple A giraffeAn elephant A secondAn hour (you write it with an h, but you don’t hear the h!) The is sometimes pronounced with an ‘ie’-sound  ‘die’. You say ‘die’ when the next word starts with a vowel (klinker) sound. The nightThe evening The ballThe ice-skates

9 Sometimes it depends on the situation to know which word to use… We want to buy an umbrella. (Any umbrella, not a particular umbrella.) Where is the umbrella? (We already have an umbrella. We are looking for our umbrella.) Do exercises 3A + 3B now (p. 78 WB)! Work in silence please!

10 WARNING Always write YOU not U! Always write I never i! ‘gonna’ and ‘wanna’ doesn’t exist! If you do these thing wrong, it will cost you points!
