1 Unit 1: Present Tense   Simple Present Tense   Present Continuous Tense   Subject & Object Pronouns (I, you, it, he, she, they) vs. (me, you, him, her, it, us, them)   Possessive Adjectives (my, yours, his, her, its, our, their)   Time Expressions

2 Vocabulary: Agent Nouns  By adding ‘er’ to a verb, we create Agent Nouns  Agent Nouns are typically jobs Note: Some Agent Nouns are irregular!

3 Present Continuous Tense & Subject Pronouns   Subject Pronouns: I, he, she, it, we, you, they   Remember to abbreviate the forms of the pronouns (am = ‘m is = ‘s are = ‘re)   To make the Present Continuous, we’ll use: 1. Yes/No + Subject Pronoun + am. 2. Subject Pronouns + am + verb + ‘ing’ *Note: When answering questions, don’t just use Yes/No

4 Do   In the negative, ‘do’ changes to: ‘do not’ = don’t   Now, we’re using the Present Continuous along with the Simple Present Tense   Remember, when using ‘does’ (he, she, it), we must also add an ‘s’ to the verb

5 Do you like…?   Now, let’s add ‘er’ (but not always!) to make agent nouns

6 How Often?: Time Expressions   We use Possessive Adjectives (my, yours, his, her, its, our, their) to change the meaning of a noun Example: Grandchildren are people (nouns), and by adding ‘their,’ we’re making a more accurate sentence   We use Object Pronouns (me, you, him, her, it, us, them) when the object has already been identified Example: We already know the object is ‘Grandchildren,’ so now we can just use the OBJECT PRONOUN to shorten the sentence.
