Objective:
The student will learn the use of the Simple Present in affirmative, negative and question form. The simple present tense:

We use the simple present to talk about repeated actions or habits. Actions that are permanent.

The structure of the simple present in English is formed by the basic form of the verb for all the persons, except the third person in which you have to add s or es ies at the end of the verb.

3.1 Affirmative:

I yo u, w e, t he y go wor k Dr e am l i ve fly Examples: I work at the university She dreams every night Daniel lives in Puebla

p e rs on: he , she , it goes W or ks dr ea ms liv e s fli es

When the verb ends in -s, -ss, -sh, -o, -ch, -x; we add at the third singular person the end -es'. When the verb ends in y and we have before the 'y' there is a consonant we must change the y to 'ies'.

What is a reptile?
Reptiles are vertebrates, they have scaly skin that keeps their bodies from drying out, their young do not go through a larva stage like amphibians, but instead look like small versions of the adults when they hatch. Reptiles are ectotherms, so they must bask in the sun or find a warm spot to get warm and become active, and they must find shade or a cool spot to cool off. There are more than 6,500 known species of reptiles. The heaviest is the saltwater crocodile Crocodylidae porosus, weighing up to 2,200 pounds (1,000 kilograms). The smallest is the dwarf gecko Sphaerodactylus ariasae, measuring only 3/4 of an inch (19 millimeters

Dinosaurs

From 230 million to 65 million years ago, reptiles called dinosaurs lived on the Earth. They varied tremendously in size and shape. Some were about the size of a dog but others were huge, weighing many tons. The largest species ate plants, but others were flesh eaters. Most were four-legged, but many walked and ran on their hind legs only.
