I used to be a rebel

Lesson objectives:

-  Correctly  pronounce and use key school subjects in the speech

- Use the structure "used to + infinitive" in the affirmative, negative, and interrogative 

- Understand key details and target vocabulary from the audio to match specific school subjects (History, Geography, Math, etc.) with the corresponding past habits or behaviors mentioned by the speaker. 

 Past Habits & States (Something you did before)Use "used to + base verb" to describe a repeated action or a long-lasting situation that happened regularly in the past but is no longer true today

Rule: Subject + used to + verb

Example: I used to play the piano. (I did this often in the past, but I don't play anymore). 

The Negative and Question Rule (Did/Didn't)This is the most common mistake in English grammar. Because "used to" is a past tense form, you only use the -d at the end for positive statements. When you ask a question or make a negative sentence, the helper verb did / didn't  so it drops down to "use to" (without the "d").

Negative: Subject + didn't use to + verb

Example: I didn't use to like coffee. (NOT I didn't used to like coffee)

Question: Did + subject + use to + verb?

 Example: Where did you use to work? (NOT Where did you used to work?)
