What Time Is It?
Optional support — your core lesson stays exactly as it is.
🧩 Supplementary Practice
Present Simple — every day
Use this if the -s on he/she/it still feels confusing.
Extra support for language you've already met.
Step 1 · Let's Understand
Grammar Support — Present Simple
Another way to see the same rule.
Understand it
UnderstandWe use the Present Simple for things that are always true or that happen again and again: habits, routines, timetables.
- I / you / we / they → the verb does not change. → I work.
- he / she / it → add -s. → He works.
- Think: 'he, she, it — the -s must fit.'
Notice the pattern
NoticeRead each pair aloud. Where is the -s?
- I get up at seven. → She gets up at seven.get → gets
- We start at nine. → He starts at nine.start → starts
- They finish at five. → It finishes at five.-sh → add -es
- I go to bed late. → My brother goes to bed late.go → goes
