Vocabulary Learning
The Power of "Did Not"
In the text, we see: "They did not make the big playoffs" and "He did not go to Penn State."
When we talk about the past and want to say something is false/no, we use this pattern:
Person/Thing did not Action (Basic Form)
- Wrong: He did not went. (X)
- Right: He did not go. (✓)
Word Grouping: The "New" Connection
Look at how the author uses the word "new" to describe different things. This is a great way to build A2 sentences by adding a describing word before a person or a plan:
- New plans
- New coaches
- New leader
Tip: Put the describing word first, then the thing. Example: New shoes, New city, New coach.
