How Would You Spend Less Money?

Today in class you talked about ideas to spend less money.   Spending less money is called being frugal.   You gave your ideas and you heard ideas from other students.

You also read the ideas of other people on three websites:

• http://tinyurl.com/pclr8q
• http://tinyurl.com/lpytgv
• http://tinyurl.com/km9a6o

You probably thought some of the ideas were good and some of them were bad.   Different students have different opinions about this.  It is very interesting to hear the different opinions.

Type a comment to this post and answer these two questions:

1. What is one idea you would use, and why would it be good?
2. What is one idea you would not use, and why would it be bad?

Remember to practice Present Unreal Conditional grammar when you write your answers and to always write your name.

What Would You Do With Extra Money?

Today during class you talked about what you would do with extra money.   You asked each other this question and you shared your opinion.

You also used Present Unreal Conditional grammar when you answered.   For example,

• If I found $10, I would buy a new notebook and pens.

Today in class your teacher also asked you to write a paragraph about what you would do with extra money and why.

Now, make a comment to this post.  Type the paragraph you wrote in class in the comment. Make sure to also write your name!

Reaching Your Goals

Hello, students!  Welcome to the blog!

Today in class you talked about your goals and ways to reach them.   Then you wrote sentences about them in Present Unreal Conditional.

For example, my goal is that I want to be a better teacher.  I think I can be a better teacher if I teach a lot.   If I want to write this in Present Unreal Conditional then I would write:

• “If I taught more, I would be a better teacher.”

Always remember that when you write in Present Unreal Conditional the first verb is in the past tense, and don’t forget you have to use “would.”

Now why don’t you share one of your goals in Present Unreal Conditional.

Please type a comment to this post..  In the comment, type one of your Present Unreal Conditional sentences.  If you have time, type more than one.

Make sure you sign your name too!
