Warm-up

Before we look back at the last five lessons:

1. Are voice messages fun for you, or are they a problem?
2. Who is a good English partner for you: a friend, a teacher or an app?
3. Are your English classes online or in a classroom?

Grammar rule

Grammar from lessons 1–5

Lesson	Grammar	Example
1	am, is, are, and not	My uncle is a chef. We aren't busy today.
2	questions with be, short answers	Are they in class? — No, they aren't. Where is the bank?
3	my, your, his, her, its, our, their	Yuri and his sister · the bird and its cage
4	a and an: the first sound	a sofa, an onion, a one-hour class
5	plurals	two benches, three puppies, six people

Five things to watch: a sentence needs be (not She a chef); be comes before the person in a question, and yes takes the long form (Yes, I am); his or her goes with the owner, not the thing; a or an goes with the sound, not the letter; and the new-word plurals take no -s (people, men, feet).
