This is the place to keep all the wonderful things we shared on Edmodo during our distance learning period which would have been lost after Edmodo closed its doors. It is also used as a notice board to keep track of our lessons at school.
What do you do when you're happy? Maybe you sing your favourite song.
What will you do if it rains at the weekend? Will you stay inside and play games, or go out with your umbrella anyway?
These are the examples of conditionals - sentences that show a condition and a result. To talk about facts, we use Type 0, and to talk about possible results in the future, we use Type 1 Conditional.

As you know, there are different ways of talking about the future in English. We can use going to + infinitive, will + infinitive, the present simple or continuous, depending on what we want to say.
Watch the videos for some more examples:
Do you play computer games every day, or just at the weekend?
How often do you practise sports?
Do you always eat pizza on Fridays?
When we talk about what we do every day, we use the present simple tense. Watch the video for some more examples.
As you remember, for most verbs, we use the base form of the verb. But, for the third person singular (he, she, or it), we add -s or -es to the end of the verb.
Some verbs even change their spelling! Can you figure out the correct spelling and sort the verbs? Enter your name to start the game.
Make some funny sentences using the present simple tense.
To ask questions or say no in the present simple, we need help - DO/DOES, DON'T/DOESN'T. Can you tell the difference between these? Let's see!
Reflect on the last few weeks and the shift in your daily routines due to the suspension of lessons. These questions might help you organise your thoughts:
Paragraph 1: How did your daily routine change? How did you spend your days? Who did you spend them with?
Paragraph 2: How did you feel about your days without lessons? What was the most memorable moment during this period? What were your thoughts? Did you discuss this situation with your family and friends? How did they feel?
Paragraph 3: How did this experience change your view of school, learning, or life in general? How did you continue your learning outside of school?
Paragraph 4: What are you most looking forward to when lessons start again? What changes or improvements do you hope to see?
Write about your favourite day of the week. You can make your timeline first. Organise your writing in paragraphs. These questions can help you:
P1: Which is your favourite day of the week?
P2: What time do you usually get up? What do you do first? Do you make your bed? Who makes your breakfast? What do you usually eat? What do you do after breakfast?
P3: What time do you usually have lunch? What's your favourite lunch? Do you have lunch with your family?
P4: What do you do in the afternoon? Do you play with your friends/pets, go to the park, walk your dog, or go shopping?
P5: What do you do in the evening? Do you watch TV, read books/comics, listen to music, or play games? What time do you usually have dinner? Who prepares it? Do you help? What do you usually eat?
P6: What time do you go to bed? What do you do before you go to bed?
P7: Why is it your favourite day?
- If it's a workday, how many lessons have you got then? Can you name them? Do you like morning or afternoon shifts better? Why? What do you do in your break time? What after-school activities do you do?
You can use the following game as the example.
There are rules everywhere, at home, at school, online... Think of your ideal school. What rules are there? Use must for your duties and mustn't for the things that are not allowed.
