Hello everyone! 馃憢 We start a new unit in our English class, and we are learning about daily routines and how to talk about them in English. 馃殌
What Are Daily Routines?
Daily routines are the activities we do every day, like waking up, brushing our teeth, having breakfast, going to school, playing, and sleeping. We use the Present Simple tense to talk about them.
Key Vocabulary 馃彨馃崕
Here are some common actions we do every day:
Wake up – I wake up at 7 o’clock.
Brush my teeth – I brush my teeth in the morning.
Have breakfast – I have toast for breakfast.
Go to school – I go to school at 8 o’clock.
Study – I study English at school.
Have lunch – I have lunch at 1 p.m.
Come back from school - I come back from school at 5 o'clock.
Play – I play with my friends.
Watch TV - I usually watch TV before dinner.
Do homework – I do my homework in the afternoon.
Have dinner – I have dinner at 8 p.m.

Using the Present Simple 馃摑
To talk about daily routines, we use the Present Simple.
馃搶 Examples: ✔️ I wake up at 7 o’clock. ✔️ She goes to school at 8 a.m. (Remember to add -s for he/she/it!) ✔️ We play football in the afternoon.
Adverbs of Frequency 馃攧
We also use adverbs of frequency to say how often we do something:
Always – I always brush my teeth.
Usually – I usually wake up at 7 a.m.
Sometimes – I sometimes play football after school.
Never – I never go to bed late.
Telling the time 馃晳
It is also important to know how to tell the time so we can say at what time usually do different activities during the day.
Final Project: My Daily Routine Schedule 馃棑️✍️
At the end of the unit, each student will create their own daily routine schedule. 馃帹馃搮 We will write and draw our activities for each day and present them to the class.
