Introduction and notes for teachers
Grammar Friends is a six-level series of grammar
reference and practice books for children aged from
about six to about twelve, taking them from beginner
to elementary (CEF A2) level.
The books can be used as supplementary support
and resource material in class or at home and
can be used alongside any primary course for
beginners. Each unit introduces an element of
English grammar through a picture or series of
pictures with speech bubbles or captions. The
grammar is then explained in simple language,
with additional examples if necessary. This is
followed by exercises increasing in difficulty from
straightforward concept check exercises (e.g.
matching tasks) to sentence-writing activities. The
units are four pages long and they cover one, two
or three grammar points.
The units can be used in any order, depending on
the syllabus being followed. However, where there
is more than one unit on a particular topic you are
advised to follow the sequence indicated by the
numbers in brackets alongside the topic description
(see the Student's Book Contents list and the first
page of each Student's Book unit).
Each topic is carefully broken down into separate
elements, as is appropriate for primary pupils. For
example, the present simple of like is presented in the
first person singular affirmative and negative forms
only in unit 11 of Grammar Friends 1. The second
person interrogative form is introduced in unit 12,
along with first person singular short answers. The
second person singular form with the added 's' is not
introduced until unit 7 of Grammar Friends 2.
Sometimes it is appropriate for pupils to see the
bigger picture, so occasionally the grammar
explanation will introduce elements of the topic
that pupils are not expected to use in the exercises.
Sometimes there are reminders of the grammar that
they will probably have covered in earlier units.
The pencil with the exclamation mark is used to
signal these reminders as well as to highlight other
important points. The grammar reference pages at
the end of the book bring all the main grammar
structures covered together in tables.
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
The contexts and situations
The grammar is presented within everyday
contexts, usually one related to a particular family
or group of friends of the same age as the learners.
The contexts or situations will probably be familiar
to pupils from their own lives – and from the other
materials they use in class. Because the vocabulary
will be known and familiar, this means that pupils
will be able to concentrate on the grammar. The
clear illustrations and familiar contexts will help
them to recall the vocabulary (or work out the
meaning of any words that they may be unfamiliar
with). At the lower levels the vocabulary sets in
each unit are small, but at the higher levels it is
assumed that pupils will have a wider vocabulary.
Teachers and parents can be assured that the
contexts and situations are appropriate for primary
pupils who are learning the importance of good
moral and social values at home and at school. The
action in the grammar presentations and in the
exercises centres on three siblings – Charlie, Molly,
and Harry, and their parents and grandparents.
The exercises
The exercises challenge pupils to make use
of their understanding of the meaning of the
grammar as well as their ability to manipulate
grammatical forms. This is why, especially at
the lower levels, pictures are important. With the
limited linguistic resources at their disposal, it is
only through pictures that pupils can be expected
to differentiate between the meaning of our, your
and their, for example. Pupils are expected to use
correct punctuation in the exercises in Grammar
Friends 3. They are also expected to use short forms
wherever it is most natural to do so and to put the
apostrophe in these.
All exercises have a completed example for pupils
to follow. In exercises where a list of words or
phrases to be used is given, the word used in the
example is scored through to indicate that it has
been 'used'. Where the word (or phrase) used in the
example is not scored through, this means that
most of the words in the list are used more than
once in the exercise.
Introduction
3
In exercises where the instruction is to 'look', pupils
may sometimes have to look at an illustration
elsewhere on the page, or on a facing page.
The review units
After every three units there is a review unit.
These are shorter units of exercises which provide
additional practice of the grammar topics presented
in the three preceding units. There is no new grammar
material presented or practised in these units. They
can therefore also be used as progress tests to check
that learners have remembered what they have
learned.
The Teacher's Book
This Teacher's Book contains the answers to the
exercises in the Student's Book. There are also six
photocopiable tests. Five of the tests are a single
page and cover three units each. The final test is a
review of the grammar covered in the whole book
and is two pages long. The answers to the test
questions are supplied.
The CD-ROM
The student's CD-ROM contains simple interactive
exercises with instant feedback that learners can do
at home on their own. The exercises are grouped in
relation to sets of three units (in a similar way to the
Review units) and there are also multiple-choice tests
on the grammar topics covered in the book.
Notes on the units
Starter Unit: My family
• A gentle reminder of two topics that were
introduced in Grammar Friends 2: comparative
adjectives and the past simple of be.
• Reminder of formation and use of the past simple of
be (affirmative and negative, including short forms).
• Exercise 7 ensures that pupils practise combining
both grammar topics in single sentences.
• Comparative adjectives: smaller, louder, quieter,
faster, slower, older, younger, taller, shorter.
Unit 1: My friends
• Introduction of the present simple of be (affirmative
and negative, including short forms).
• Expansion of 'Where are you from?' to 'Where is he/
she from?' and corresponding short answers.
• Before starting the exercises in this unit, ensure
pupils know the flags for the following countries:
Australia, Egypt, the USA, Brazil, Russia, the UK.
• Question words: where, when, why, what, who,
which, how old?
• Countries: Australia, the UK, Egypt, Spain, the USA,
Brazil, Russia, Thailand, Canada, Scotland.
Unit 2: My hobbies
• The present simple: like + -ing (affirmative, negative,
and negative short form).
• Exercise 1 concentrates on formation of 'like + -ing'
sentences, and exercise 2 builds on this knowledge,
to incorporate complete sentence formation, with
reduced prompting.
• In exercises 4–6, pupils practise forming questions,
identifying correct responses to questions, and
finally (in exercise 6) forming their own questions
and answers, using minimal prompts from the table.
• Hobbies: playing computer games, reading
newspapers, going to the cinema, playing chess,
fishing, climbing trees, playing tennis, horse riding,
skateboarding, playing the piano, drawing, playing
volleyball, reading, swimming, cooking, surfing.
Unit 3: Our things
• Extension of can from ability to also include
permission and requests.
• Extensive practice of using 'can' for forming
requests or requests for permission.
• In exercise 5, pupils should use can in the first
person to construct permission sentences and can in
the second person to construct request sentences.
4
Introduction
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
• Introduction of possessive adjectives and practice
of our, your and their.
• Verbs in the base form: use, play, ride, turn on, buy,
turn off, pass, go, go out, have, turn up, turn down,
take, borrow, listen to, open, wash, sit, give, help.
Review 1
• In exercise 6, pupils are expected to fill the gaps
with your, our and their, using the characters
closest to the audience as the speaker.
Unit 4: At the seaside
• Spelling rules – -ing form.
• Explanation and practice of the present continuous
(affirmative and short forms, negative and short
forms), form and use. It may help pupils to be
reminded of vowels and consonants before they
begin the exercises.
• Pupils should be encouraged to use short forms in
their answers whenever possible, particularly in
exercises 3–5.
• Verbs: helping, playing, writing, snorkelling,
swimming, carrying, reading, playing, drawing,
liking, putting, making, studying, talking, staying,
windsurfing, combing, reading, skateboarding,
listening.
Unit 5: A visit to the zoo
• The present continuous (questions and short
answers).
• This unit builds on the knowledge pupils have
acquired from unit 4.
• In exercise 4, pupils will need to remember to
include an article before each animal when
formulating their questions.
• Make sure your pupils do not forget to include
question marks at the end of all question
sentences, and full-stops at the end of all short
answers in this unit.
• Animals: lion, monkey, parrot, kangaroo, zebra,
chimpanzee, snake, penguin, mouse, crocodile,
spider, lizard.
Unit 6: My day
• Review of the present simple and presentation of
the present simple of have.
• In exercise 1, pupils practise the formation of the
present simple in a simple revision exercise. In
subsequent exercises, they are required to use the
present simple in different contexts.
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
• In exercise 2, pupils must decide whether the
sentences are true or false, then write a correct
sentence using a pronoun instead of a name. These
are all listed in the verb table on page 30 of the
Student's Book.
• Daily routine verbs: get up, get dressed, walk, brush
my teeth, go to school, have dinner, play outside.
Review 2
• Remind students to use the short form of the
present continuous whenever possible throughout
this Review.
• The answer key for exercise 6 gives short answers to
questions 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8 in the first person. It is also
acceptable for pupils to respond in the first person
plural.
Unit 7: Free time
• Adverbs of frequency: always, usually, often,
sometimes, never.
• Position of adverbs of frequency in a sentence is
explained at the start of the unit. Pupils should be
reminded that the adverb goes before most verbs
but after be.
• Time expressions: in, on, at.
• In Exercise 6, pupils are required to use both
grammar points in individual sentences. Some
sentences feature both grammar points.
Unit 8: Going shopping
• Countable and uncountable nouns.
• Please note that although asparagus can also be
used as a countable noun, pupils are only expected
to know it as an uncountable noun in Grammar
Friends 3.
• Would like.
• Pupils should be encouraged to use short forms of
would like whenever possible.
• In exercises 3 and 4, pupils are expected to combine
both grammar topics that are taught in this unit.
• Nouns: cat, orange, rice, fruit, asparagus, water,
coffee, melon, ice cream, date, bread, banana, fruit,
lemon, apple, aubergine, glass of water, broccoli,
grape, raisin, spinach, milk, orange juice, lemonade.
Unit 9: Comparisons
• Comparative and superlative adjectives.
• Formation of regular comparative adjectives.
• Use of 'than' with comparative adjectives and
'the ...in the world' with superlative adjectives.
Notes for teachers
5
• Adjectives: big, small, long, high, short, deep, slow,
wide, tall, young, loud, quiet, fast, old.
young, hungry, sunny, shy, kind, generous, mean,
miserable, old, relaxed.
Review 3
Review 4
• In exercise 5, pupils must use the words in the
wordpool. This means that sometimes, letter 'A' will
not be at the start of the sentences, e.g. 3 'B is older
than A. B is the oldest.'
• In exercise 4, there are alternative possible answers
for questions 1, 3, 4 and 6. These are provided in the
answer key.
Unit 10: Play time
Unit 13: Party time
• Must and mustn't.
• Imperative and negative imperative.
• In exercise 2, pupils may be tempted to complete
each column separately, as this makes the exercise
easier. Encourage them to complete each row in
turn, slowly working through each form of the verb
independently.
• Imperative forms: stay, play, come, stay, listen,
wait, go.
• Regular past simple verbs (affirmative, negative and
negative short forms); ago.
• In exercise 6, pupils may need some prompting to
work out that 1990 is 10 years before 2000 and that
February is four months before June.
• Exercise 7 requires pupils to combine the past simple
with ago to form complete individual sentences.
• Past simple verbs: waited, lived, watched, loved,
cooked, started, finished, listened, hated, worked,
played, laughed, wanted, washed, started.
Unit 11: Past times
Unit 14: School time
• There was, there were.
• Past time expressions: last, yesterday, on.
• In exercise 4, pupils should note that Friday is
marked as 'TODAY', so all the week's activities take
place in relation to this.
• In exercise 5, questions 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8 have
two possible answers. Both of these answers are
marked in the answer key and both are correct.
• Places and objects in town: tree, cars, buses, park,
bus stop, museum, computer, train station, tram,
cinema, post office.
• The past simple: questions and short answers.
• In exercise 2, whilst pupils are actively practising
the past simple of regular verbs, they will also be
revising past time expressions.
• In exercise 3, if the prompt sentence is affirmative,
the short answer that pupils give should also be
affirmative. If the prompt sentence is negative, the
short answer should also be negative.
• In exercise 5, pupils are asked to correct the
sentences that are incorrect. In each case, the
answers provided use the original prompt that
students are given and change the past time
expression in order to correct the sentence.
• What, when and where.
Unit 12: Family memories
• The past simple of be.
• The past simple of have (affirmative, negative and
negative short forms).
• In exercise 3, pupils should write true sentences
about the Hill family (featured in exercise 2). In
frames 1, 4 and 5, the notes provided are not true, so
pupils will need to write a true negative sentence
followed by a true, positive sentence.
• Connectors: and and but.
• Before pupils start working on 'connectors', they
might find it useful to revise the meanings of the
adjectives used in the exercises, so that they can
decide more easily whether each adjective used has
a negative or positive meaning.
• Adjectives: long, handsome, clever, friendly, pretty,
red, fair, dark, black, brown, short, happy, cheerful,
6
Notes for teachers
Unit 15: Holiday time
• Going to (affirmative, affirmative short form,
questions and short answers).
• In exercises 2 and 3, encourage pupils to use short
forms of be going to whenever possible.
• Future time expressions: next, this, tomorrow, later,
soon.
Review 5
• Note that in exercise 5, the questions should be
answered as though today is Friday of the week
before the one that appears in Sally's diary.

Introduction and notes for teachers
Grammar Friends is a six-level series of grammar
reference and practice books for children aged from
about six to about twelve, taking them from beginner
to elementary (CEF A2) level.
The books can be used as supplementary support
and resource material in class or at home and
can be used alongside any primary course for
beginners. Each unit introduces an element of
English grammar through a picture or series of
pictures with speech bubbles or captions. The
grammar is then explained in simple language,
with additional examples if necessary. This is
followed by exercises increasing in difficulty from
straightforward concept check exercises (e.g.
matching tasks) to sentence-writing activities. The
units are four pages long and they cover one, two
or three grammar points.
The units can be used in any order, depending on
the syllabus being followed. However, where there
is more than one unit on a particular topic you are
advised to follow the sequence indicated by the
numbers in brackets alongside the topic description
(see the Student's Book Contents list and the first
page of each Student's Book unit).
Each topic is carefully broken down into separate
elements, as is appropriate for primary pupils. For
example, the present simple of like is presented in the
first person singular affirmative and negative forms
only in unit 11 of Grammar Friends 1. The second
person interrogative form is introduced in unit 12,
along with first person singular short answers. The
second person singular form with the added 's' is not
introduced until unit 7 of Grammar Friends 2.
Sometimes it is appropriate for pupils to see the
bigger picture, so occasionally the grammar
explanation will introduce elements of the topic
that pupils are not expected to use in the exercises.
Sometimes there are reminders of the grammar that
they will probably have covered in earlier units.
The pencil with the exclamation mark is used to
signal these reminders as well as to highlight other
important points. The grammar reference pages at
the end of the book bring all the main grammar
structures covered together in tables.
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
The contexts and situations
The grammar is presented within everyday
contexts, usually one related to a particular family
or group of friends of the same age as the learners.
The contexts or situations will probably be familiar
to pupils from their own lives – and from the other
materials they use in class. Because the vocabulary
will be known and familiar, this means that pupils
will be able to concentrate on the grammar. The
clear illustrations and familiar contexts will help
them to recall the vocabulary (or work out the
meaning of any words that they may be unfamiliar
with). At the lower levels the vocabulary sets in
each unit are small, but at the higher levels it is
assumed that pupils will have a wider vocabulary.
Teachers and parents can be assured that the
contexts and situations are appropriate for primary
pupils who are learning the importance of good
moral and social values at home and at school. The
action in the grammar presentations and in the
exercises centres on three siblings – Charlie, Molly,
and Harry, and their parents and grandparents.
The exercises
The exercises challenge pupils to make use
of their understanding of the meaning of the
grammar as well as their ability to manipulate
grammatical forms. This is why, especially at
the lower levels, pictures are important. With the
limited linguistic resources at their disposal, it is
only through pictures that pupils can be expected
to differentiate between the meaning of our, your
and their, for example. Pupils are expected to use
correct punctuation in the exercises in Grammar
Friends 3. They are also expected to use short forms
wherever it is most natural to do so and to put the
apostrophe in these.
All exercises have a completed example for pupils
to follow. In exercises where a list of words or
phrases to be used is given, the word used in the
example is scored through to indicate that it has
been 'used'. Where the word (or phrase) used in the
example is not scored through, this means that
most of the words in the list are used more than
once in the exercise.
Introduction
3
In exercises where the instruction is to 'look', pupils
may sometimes have to look at an illustration
elsewhere on the page, or on a facing page.
The review units
After every three units there is a review unit.
These are shorter units of exercises which provide
additional practice of the grammar topics presented
in the three preceding units. There is no new grammar
material presented or practised in these units. They
can therefore also be used as progress tests to check
that learners have remembered what they have
learned.
The Teacher's Book
This Teacher's Book contains the answers to the
exercises in the Student's Book. There are also six
photocopiable tests. Five of the tests are a single
page and cover three units each. The final test is a
review of the grammar covered in the whole book
and is two pages long. The answers to the test
questions are supplied.
The CD-ROM
The student's CD-ROM contains simple interactive
exercises with instant feedback that learners can do
at home on their own. The exercises are grouped in
relation to sets of three units (in a similar way to the
Review units) and there are also multiple-choice tests
on the grammar topics covered in the book.
Notes on the units
Starter Unit: My family
• A gentle reminder of two topics that were
introduced in Grammar Friends 2: comparative
adjectives and the past simple of be.
• Reminder of formation and use of the past simple of
be (affirmative and negative, including short forms).
• Exercise 7 ensures that pupils practise combining
both grammar topics in single sentences.
• Comparative adjectives: smaller, louder, quieter,
faster, slower, older, younger, taller, shorter.
Unit 1: My friends
• Introduction of the present simple of be (affirmative
and negative, including short forms).
• Expansion of 'Where are you from?' to 'Where is he/
she from?' and corresponding short answers.
• Before starting the exercises in this unit, ensure
pupils know the flags for the following countries:
Australia, Egypt, the USA, Brazil, Russia, the UK.
• Question words: where, when, why, what, who,
which, how old?
• Countries: Australia, the UK, Egypt, Spain, the USA,
Brazil, Russia, Thailand, Canada, Scotland.
Unit 2: My hobbies
• The present simple: like + -ing (affirmative, negative,
and negative short form).
• Exercise 1 concentrates on formation of 'like + -ing'
sentences, and exercise 2 builds on this knowledge,
to incorporate complete sentence formation, with
reduced prompting.
• In exercises 4–6, pupils practise forming questions,
identifying correct responses to questions, and
finally (in exercise 6) forming their own questions
and answers, using minimal prompts from the table.
• Hobbies: playing computer games, reading
newspapers, going to the cinema, playing chess,
fishing, climbing trees, playing tennis, horse riding,
skateboarding, playing the piano, drawing, playing
volleyball, reading, swimming, cooking, surfing.
Unit 3: Our things
• Extension of can from ability to also include
permission and requests.
• Extensive practice of using 'can' for forming
requests or requests for permission.
• In exercise 5, pupils should use can in the first
person to construct permission sentences and can in
the second person to construct request sentences.
4
Introduction
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
• Introduction of possessive adjectives and practice
of our, your and their.
• Verbs in the base form: use, play, ride, turn on, buy,
turn off, pass, go, go out, have, turn up, turn down,
take, borrow, listen to, open, wash, sit, give, help.
Review 1
• In exercise 6, pupils are expected to fill the gaps
with your, our and their, using the characters
closest to the audience as the speaker.
Unit 4: At the seaside
• Spelling rules – -ing form.
• Explanation and practice of the present continuous
(affirmative and short forms, negative and short
forms), form and use. It may help pupils to be
reminded of vowels and consonants before they
begin the exercises.
• Pupils should be encouraged to use short forms in
their answers whenever possible, particularly in
exercises 3–5.
• Verbs: helping, playing, writing, snorkelling,
swimming, carrying, reading, playing, drawing,
liking, putting, making, studying, talking, staying,
windsurfing, combing, reading, skateboarding,
listening.
Unit 5: A visit to the zoo
• The present continuous (questions and short
answers).
• This unit builds on the knowledge pupils have
acquired from unit 4.
• In exercise 4, pupils will need to remember to
include an article before each animal when
formulating their questions.
• Make sure your pupils do not forget to include
question marks at the end of all question
sentences, and full-stops at the end of all short
answers in this unit.
• Animals: lion, monkey, parrot, kangaroo, zebra,
chimpanzee, snake, penguin, mouse, crocodile,
spider, lizard.
Unit 6: My day
• Review of the present simple and presentation of
the present simple of have.
• In exercise 1, pupils practise the formation of the
present simple in a simple revision exercise. In
subsequent exercises, they are required to use the
present simple in different contexts.
Grammar Friends 3 © Oxford University Press
• In exercise 2, pupils must decide whether the
sentences are true or false, then write a correct
sentence using a pronoun instead of a name. These
are all listed in the verb table on page 30 of the
Student's Book.
• Daily routine verbs: get up, get dressed, walk, brush
my teeth, go to school, have dinner, play outside.
Review 2
• Remind students to use the short form of the
present continuous whenever possible throughout
this Review.
• The answer key for exercise 6 gives short answers to
questions 1, 2, 4, 5 and 8 in the first person. It is also
acceptable for pupils to respond in the first person
plural.
Unit 7: Free time
• Adverbs of frequency: always, usually, often,
sometimes, never.
• Position of adverbs of frequency in a sentence is
explained at the start of the unit. Pupils should be
reminded that the adverb goes before most verbs
but after be.
• Time expressions: in, on, at.
• In Exercise 6, pupils are required to use both
grammar points in individual sentences. Some
sentences feature both grammar points.
Unit 8: Going shopping
• Countable and uncountable nouns.
• Please note that although asparagus can also be
used as a countable noun, pupils are only expected
to know it as an uncountable noun in Grammar
Friends 3.
• Would like.
• Pupils should be encouraged to use short forms of
would like whenever possible.
• In exercises 3 and 4, pupils are expected to combine
both grammar topics that are taught in this unit.
• Nouns: cat, orange, rice, fruit, asparagus, water,
coffee, melon, ice cream, date, bread, banana, fruit,
lemon, apple, aubergine, glass of water, broccoli,
grape, raisin, spinach, milk, orange juice, lemonade.
Unit 9: Comparisons

• Formation of regular comparative adjectives.
• Use of 'than' with comparative adjectives and
'the ...in the world' with superlative adjectives.
Notes for teachers
5
• Adjectives: big, small, long, high, short, deep, slow,
wide, tall, young, loud, quiet, fast, old.
young, hungry, sunny, shy, kind, generous, mean,
miserable, old, relaxed.
Review 3
Review 4
• In exercise 5, pupils must use the words in the
wordpool. This means that sometimes, letter 'A' will
not be at the start of the sentences, e.g. 3 'B is older
than A. B is the oldest.'
• In exercise 4, there are alternative possible answers
for questions 1, 3, 4 and 6. These are provided in the
answer key.
Unit 10: Play time
Unit 13: Party time
• Must and mustn't.
• Imperative and negative imperative.
• In exercise 2, pupils may be tempted to complete
each column separately, as this makes the exercise
easier. Encourage them to complete each row in
turn, slowly working through each form of the verb
independently.
• Imperative forms: stay, play, come, stay, listen,
wait, go.
• Regular past simple verbs (affirmative, negative and
negative short forms); ago.
• In exercise 6, pupils may need some prompting to
work out that 1990 is 10 years before 2000 and that
February is four months before June.
• Exercise 7 requires pupils to combine the past simple
with ago to form complete individual sentences.
• Past simple verbs: waited, lived, watched, loved,
cooked, started, finished, listened, hated, worked,
played, laughed, wanted, washed, started.
Unit 11: Past times
Unit 14: School time
• There was, there were.
• Past time expressions: last, yesterday, on.
• In exercise 4, pupils should note that Friday is
marked as 'TODAY', so all the week's activities take
place in relation to this.
• In exercise 5, questions 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8 have
two possible answers. Both of these answers are
marked in the answer key and both are correct.
• Places and objects in town: tree, cars, buses, park,
bus stop, museum, computer, train station, tram,
cinema, post office.
• The past simple: questions and short answers.
• In exercise 2, whilst pupils are actively practising
the past simple of regular verbs, they will also be
revising past time expressions.
• In exercise 3, if the prompt sentence is affirmative,
the short answer that pupils give should also be
affirmative. If the prompt sentence is negative, the
short answer should also be negative.
• In exercise 5, pupils are asked to correct the
sentences that are incorrect. In each case, the
answers provided use the original prompt that
students are given and change the past time
expression in order to correct the sentence.
• What, when and where.
Unit 12: Family memories
• The past simple of be.
• The past simple of have (affirmative, negative and
negative short forms).
• In exercise 3, pupils should write true sentences
about the Hill family (featured in exercise 2). In
frames 1, 4 and 5, the notes provided are not true, so
pupils will need to write a true negative sentence
followed by a true, positive sentence.
• Connectors: and and but.
• Before pupils start working on 'connectors', they
might find it useful to revise the meanings of the
adjectives used in the exercises, so that they can
decide more easily whether each adjective used has
a negative or positive meaning.
• Adjectives: long, handsome, clever, friendly, pretty,
red, fair, dark, black, brown, short, happy, cheerful,
6
Notes for teachers
Unit 15: Holiday time
• Going to (affirmative, affirmative short form,
questions and short answers).
• In exercises 2 and 3, encourage pupils to use short
forms of be going to whenever possible.
• Future time expressions: next, this, tomorrow, later,
soon.
Review 5
• Note that in exercise 5, the questions should be
answered as though today is Friday of the week
before the one that appears in Sally's diary.
