Hello my dear.

Today I come to your aid in the fight against a frequent guest of the English sentence: the verb to be. Don't be afraid, he's not as scary as he seems. Therefore, arm yourself with knowledge and practice ahead, because you have a minimum of theory and a maximum of practice ahead of you.

Then I officially start the lesson called: verb to be - exercises for children.

Few rules

Verb to be translated means “to be.” And it is used in almost EVERY sentence of the English language. How? - you ask. - What about the sentences “I’m beautiful”, “I’m a schoolboy”, “Are you at home?”, “I’m in class”? The answer is simple: in English this verb is helped by 3 little friends, who in Russian simply remain invisible. These are verbs am, is, are.

You can remember the use of the verbs am, is, are using the example of your family. If we talk about ourselves beloved, then we use the form am . If a sister, brother, or even a cat lives with you, then you can talk about each of them is . But we need to talk about parents together are .

See:

Exercises

Let's practice verb forms. If your child has entered 1st grade, then the most important thing for him now is to remember which form is used with which pronoun.

Exercise 1:
Insert the correct form of the verb to be: am, is, are.

1. I _____ a girl.
2. He ____ my brother.
3. She ____ my sister.
4. I ____ from London.
5. He ____ 17 years old.
6. She ___ a student.
7. They ____ our parents.
8. We ____ a family.
9. It ____ our dog.
10. You ____ our friend.

Once in 2nd grade, his vocabulary will be much larger and he can already put forms of verbs without the presence of explicit pronouns.

Exercise 2:

My name (1) ____ Kate Rusak. I (2) ___ 12 years old and I (3) ____a student. My family (4) ____ from Moscow. My address (5) ____ Pushkina str., 9. My telephone number (6) ____ 345 78 54. I have a sister and a brother. Their names (7) ____ Pasha and Valya. Pasha (8) ____ 17 years old. He (9) ____ a sportsman. His team (10) ____ the winner of the local championship. Valya (11) ____ 7 years old. Her school (12) ____ not far from our home.
Our parents (13) ____ busy. My mother (14) ____ a doctor and my father (15) ____ a lawyer. We (16) ___ a very happy family. We spend every weekend together.

If your child has already entered 3rd grade, then he simply needs to understand how the negative form of verbs is formed. Here's how it happens:

Let's practice.

Exercise 3:
Write a sentence with contracted and negative forms of verbs.

1. We are a big family.
2. He is a good student.
3. He is a swimmer.
4. My parents are doctors, and my aunt is a teacher.
5. You are a nice person.
6. It is a beautiful picture. We are happy to have it.
7. I am good at writing, and my sister is good at drawing.
8. She is a singer. Her song is very beautiful.
9. It is cold today. We are going to school on the bus.
10. They are very happy. They have a big family.

Exercise 4:
Choose the correct option. Translate into Russian.

1. They aren’t/aren’t doctors. They are/is teachers.
2. I am/is a student. I go to school by bus. The bus stop is/are not far from our home.
3. I am/is sure that you are/are wrong. They are not/is not liars.
4. She is/is proud of you. You are/are a worker.
5. It is/am getting cold. You sweater are/is in your backpack.

Well, if your child is already quite an adult and has entered the 4th grade, or even better, the 5th grade, then feel free to give it to him collection of exercises on English grammar for children . I'm sure he can handle it just fine. And I have one more exercise for you.

Exercise 5:

My name is Kirill. I am 10 years old and a schoolboy. I'm in 4th grade. I have a big family. My mother is a doctor. She's in the hospital now. My dad is not a doctor. My dad is an athlete.
