GRAMMAR FOCUS-PRESENT
  1. Verb To Be
    1. The structures with the verb "to be" serve to communicate several very useful aspects such as "talking about a person" and "describing the characteristics of someone or something".
      1. The basic structure of the verb affirmative "to be": Subject + Verb To Be + Complemet.
        1. The basic structure of the negative of the verb "to be": Subject + verb To Be + not + complement .
          1. The basic structure of the interrogative of the verb "to be": Verb To Be + subject + complement + ?
            1. I = Am He= Is She= Is It= Is You= Are We= Are They= Are
              1. +. I am a student. -. I am not a student. ?. Am I a student? A. Yes, I am
    2. Simple Present
      1. To express habits and routines, general events, repeated actions or situations, emotions and permanent desires. To give instructions or directions. To talk about scheduled, present or future events. To refer to the future, behind some conjunctions.
        1. The affirmative basic structure is: Subject + Verb infinitive + complement
          1. The negative basic structure is: Subject + Aux. Do/Does + Not + Verb infinitive + comlement
            1. The basic interrogative structure is: Aux . Do/Does + Subject + Verb infinitive + comlement
              1. I=Do He=Does She=Does It=Does You=Do We=Do They=Do
                1. In the third person singular, the verb always ends in -s. For negative and interrogative forms, DOES is used. Verbs ending in -y: in the third person singular, -y is changed to -ies. Exception: when a vowel precedes -y. We add -es to verbs ending in: -ss, -x, -sh, -ch:
                  1. +. He drink. -. He does not drink. ?. Does he drink?
      2. Present Continuous
        1. The present continuous is used in English to express events that take place at the moment of speech. Plans or appointments scheduled for the near future. Temporary actions. Current events. Situations that indicate evolution or change.
          1. The affirmative basic structure is: Subject + Ver To Be + Verb infinitive + ing + complement
            1. The negative basic structure is: Subject + Verb To Be + Not + Verb infinitive + Ing + Complement
              1. The basic interrogative structure is: Verb To Be + Subject + Verb infinitive + Ing + Complement
                1. To form the gerund of an English verb, just add the ending -ing to the infinitive, without having to modify the spelling of the word. If the infinitive ends in -e, it is necessary to remove this vowel before adding -ing. In the case of -ee, -oe or -ye, the e is maintained. In words with a short pronunciation vowel before a final consonant, the final consonant is doubled. This is not the case with the final consonants -w, -y, or -x. Verbs ending in -ie replace these vowels with one and before adding the ending -ing.
                  1. +. I am speaking
                    1. -. I am not speaking
                      1. ?. Am I speaking?
