Describing what others do everyday (Part 3)


In this link there is a video.  We can see an example of a daily routine (Melina's daily routine) using third person singular, that is when we talk about others (he, she).
Watch it carefully and then post, in the "comments" section, the daily routine of a family member.  Remember the "s" in  verbs for affirmative statements, or "doesn't" for negative ones.

Describing what I do everyday (Part 2)

In this video, you are going to see an interview.  Listen carefully and then anwer the questions.
1.  What time does she wake up?
2. What does she do next?
3. What does she have for breakfast?
4. Does she brush her teeth right after breakfast?
5. What does she do after the shower?
6. What does she drink and eat for lunch?
7. What time does she finish work?
8. What does she do when she gets home after work?
9. Does she go to bed at midnight?

Describing what I do everyday (Part 1)

When I want to describe what I do everyday (habits and routines)  I use the Present Simple Tense.  The structure is very simple:  Subject, Verb and Object.  In negative statements, I use don't or doesn't  ("doesn't" for 3rd person singular).  In questions I use Do or Does, then the subject, then the verb and finally the object and the question mark (?).
Remember that in affirmative statements if I use Third person singular (he, she or it)) I must add "s" to the verb.

Now, watch the video and see an example of a Daily routine in First Person Singular (I).  Then, post in the comments section your daily routine.  Remember to include times, connectors, etc.
