🏀 Tracking Progress

Look at how we describe someone getting better at something:

"Fudd is a new player and she is playing better every game."

The Pattern: [Person] → [Verb + ing] → Better

Why this helps you (A2): Instead of just saying "She is good," you can show change.

Quick Examples:

  • I am speaking better. $
  • He is cooking better.
  • We are learning better.

📅 The 'Next Event' Logic

Notice how the text talks about the future using the simple present:

  • "They play Toronto on Friday."
  • "New York plays Minnesota on Saturday."

The Trick: When you have a fixed schedule (like a game or a bus), you don't always need "will." You can just use the basic action word.

Simple Swap: The bus leaves at 8:00 \rightarrow The bus will leave at 8:00 (Both are okay!)
