Having a wide range of vocabulary is important 

because it helps you say what you mean clearly. 

It makes reading, writing, and speaking easier. 

When you know more words, you can understand 

texts and conversations better. 

It also helps you feel more confident when you 

talk to others and use the right words in 

different situations.

Grammar past simple 

Als iets in het verleden gebeurde, gebruik je de past simple. Regelmatige werkwoorden in de past simple eindigen op -ed. Onregelmatige werkwoorden in de past simple zijn allemaal verschillend. You have to learn them by heart.

Je gebruikt de past simple als het duidelijk over het verleden gaat. Dat kun je zien aan woorden in de zin die duidelijk een moment in het verleden aangeven, zoals when I was a child, in the Middle Ages en yesterday in de zinnen hieronder.

• When I was a child, I really liked knights.
  
• In the Middle Ages, people died at a young age. 
• She officially got her coat of arms yesterday.

Grammar present perfect

Je gebruikt de present perfect om te praten over iets dat in het verleden is begonnen en nu nog steeds belangrijk is, of wanneer het resultaat in het heden zichtbaar is.

De vorm is:

have/has + past participle (voltooid deelwoord)

Voorbeelden:

• I have visited London twice.
• She has just finished her homework.
• We have never seen a real castle.

Woorden die vaak bij de present perfect horen: ever, never, just, already, yet, since, for, recently, so far.

Choose between past simple and present perfect.

Choose between past simple and present perfect.

How did you do? 

           Goals today

• I can write an introduction (script) for my SA vlog. 

The introduction 

“Hi everyone! Have you ever heard of a man who was so smart and brave that he changed his country’s history? Well, today I want to tell you about one of the most important people from Dutch history — Johan de Witt.”

“My name is X, and I love learning about people who made a difference. Johan de Witt is special to me because he was from my own country, the Netherlands, and he showed what real leadership and courage mean.”

The introduction 

“Johan de Witt lived in the seventeenth century, during what we call the Dutch Golden Age. He was the leader of the country for many years and helped make the Netherlands strong and successful in trade and politics.”

“In this vlog, I’ll tell you who Johan de Witt was, what he believed in, and what we can still learn from him today. I think his story teaches us about teamwork, honesty, and standing up for your ideas — even when it’s hard.”

The introduction 

“So, let’s travel back in time to the 1600s and discover how Johan de Witt became one of the greatest leaders in Dutch history.”

What is going to be your hook for your vlog?
