Sixth graders (year 6) verb to be

Let's see if you remember the verb to be.... (have your copy ready just in case...)
easy (check up)
exercise 
advanced (for A grades) (sobresaliente)


Sixth graders (year 6)

Read the story:

Copy and answer the questions in the notebook. 

Write a short summary (20-40 words)


Sun

Lost and Found

Donna and her husband John go to the beach every Saturday in the summer. Today is no exception. Donna packs a picnic lunch. She packs the beach umbrella and sun lotion.

She cannot find their beach towels. Donna always loses things. The towels are not in the laundry basket or dryer. They are not in the closet, either. She finally looks in her beach bag. She sees the towels folded in the bottom. Of course, the beach towels are exactly where they should be.

Donna puts on her swimsuit and floppy sun hat. She is almost ready. She just needs her sunglasses. She thinks they are on the table by the door. Or maybe they are in the bathroom. They could also be in her purse. Donna sighs.

John puts the picnic basket, umbrella, and beach bag in the car.  He  checks his fishing poles and equipment. He places them in the car beside the picnic basket.. Daisy, their dog, jumps in the backseat. She loves the beach! John is ready to leave. Where is Donna? She knows he likes to arrive at the beach before the crowds.

John groans and shakes his head. Donna is always late!

Donna searches for her sunglasses. She cannot find them, and she knows John is waiting. He hates when she is late! She grabs her purse and locks the door.

"You are late," John says as Donna gets in the car. Donna tells John that she could not find her sunglasses.

John looks at her and laughs! He flips down the sun visor so Donna can see herself in the mirror. Donna looks in the mirror and laughs too. Her sunglasses are on top of her head. They were there the whole time!

"It is always in the last place that you look," Donna giggles!

THE END


Questions: (remember to copy them in the notebook)

1. What is the meaning of:

crowds
fishing pole

 2. Where were they going?

3. What was Donna looking for before she closed the door?

4. Why does Donna say "It is always in the last place that you look,"?

Sixth graders (year 6) Reported speech

Unit 6 teaches us how to use reported speech. What is reporting? let's have a look!
Prezi explaining what is reported speech

Ok this prezi teaches more than we need to know in year 6.

So, this is what we must know in unit 6:

Quote                                                           Report
Direct                                                           Indirect
"........"                                                            No "...."
 Fer said: "It's my birthday!"                         Fer said it was his birthday.

                                                     Verbs  
  Mr T: "......."                                                  Mr T said that someone   .........                    
Present Simple    Aff: (go)                                      Past (went)
                              Neg (don't go)                             Didn't + infinitive (didn't go)

Present continuous Aff (am going)                         Past continuous (was going)
                                Neg (am not going)                                           (wasn't going)

Can   (can go)                                                         Could (could go)
Can't (can't go)                                                       Couldn't (couldn't go)

Will   (will go)                                                       Would(would go)
Won't (won't go)                                                     Wouldn't (wouldn't go)

                                       Possessive adjectives
My, your                                                           his, her, its
Our, your (plural)                                              their

Remember: The report always has two subjects:

Marta: "Daniel is my brother"                           Marta said Daniel was her brother.
                                                                           or She said he was her brother.

Juego avanzado para los que quieran practicar otros verbos que no sean Say o tell.
(se tendrá en cuenta para la nota del trimestre si usáis estos verbo, so go 4 it!) Os hará falta diccionario.


Remember in unit 3 we reported orders with ask and tell:

Quote                                                             Report
Direct                                                              Indirect
"........"                                                            No "...."
 The captain ordered: "Clean the ship!"        The captain told us to clean the ship.
The captain ordered: "Don't fall asleep!"      The captain told us not to clean the ship

                          Verbs                                     
Imperative:"Go!"                                              to go
Negative imperative: "Don't go!"                     not to go                          

My, your                                                           his, her, its
Our, your (plural)                                              their



We can use  tell to report statements, not only orders. But, we have to use it with an object pronoun:
 The captain: "I like swimming"                   The captain told us he liked swimming.
                                                                       The captain said he liked swimming
                                                                       The captain said to us that he liked swimming




For advanced players:

  • Past continuous – changes to past perfect continuous
  • Present perfect – changes to past perfect
  • Past perfect – remains past perfect
  • Past perfect continuous – remains the same
  • Will – changes to would
  • Can – changes to could
  • Have to – changes to had to 

So let's report these comic strips
