Slide 1 - Drag question
The Present Simple
Negations
Now you know how to make a normal present simple sentence and questions in the present simple.
Now we are going to look at
negations
.
Slide 2 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
Negations tell you that something is
not
happening.
You can see the word
not
in negations, but almost always as a short form
n't
, as in do
n't
or does
n't
.
An example of a negation is:
She doesn't see very well.
Slide 3 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
So you make a negation by adding
don't
or
doesn't
to the sentence. Think about the SHIT Rule!
So not like this:
I like not cookies.
But like this:
I don't like cookies
Slide 4 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
Look at what happens to the verb in this sentence when we turn it into a negation:
He play
s
video games every day.
He doesn't play video games every day.
The +s disappears after doesn't. The same happened with the questions!
Slide 5 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
In the next exercise, try to turn the normal present simple into a
negation
. Pay attention to capital letters, full stops and the SHIT Rule.
Use short forms!
Slide 6 - Slide
The girls wear the same dresses.
Slide 7 - Open question
The sun shines very brightly.
Slide 8 - Open question
The Present Simple
Negations
Again, the verb '
to be
' is special.
If the first verb in the sentence is
am, is
or
are
, you can just add
not.
You don't need do or don't in that case.
I am an English teacher.
Becomes
I am not an English teacher.
Slide 9 - Slide
The Present Simple
Negations
For the next exercise, turn the normal present simple sentences into negations. Pay attention to capital letters, full stops, and the SHIT Rule!
Use short forms!

Slide 11 - Open question
