UNIT 1 (English 5th grade)

The main grammar in this unit is the PRESENT PERFECT. 


PRESENT PERFECT + EVER / NEVER


Use the present perfect + ever to ask questions about experiences in someone's life.

   Have you ever taken dance classes?
   Yes, I have. I took 6 weeks of lessons before my wedding!

   Has your brother ever been to India?
   No, he hasn't. 

Don't use ever in the answer. Only use it in questions
If you want, you can use before in the answer.
  
 Yes, I've ever taken dance classes.
 Yes, I've taken dance classes before. 


Use the present perfect + never to talk about things you have not done at any time in your life.

  I've never studied Italian. I studied English and Spanish in school, but Italian wasn't available.

  He's never heard of Michael Jackson. I can't believe he doesn't know the King of Pop!
