🏎️ The "Order" Pattern
To reach A2, you need to describe who did what first, second, and last. This text shows us how to use Ordinal Numbers to list results.
The Logic: Name + Verb + Position
- Matt Payne → first

- Brodie Kostecki → third
- Cam Waters → fourth
- Thomas Randle → fifth
- Will Brown → sixth
🛠️ Quick Tool: "The Past State"
Look at how the story changes from the accident to now. We use was/were for the past and is/are for now.
Past (Then)
- He was fast.
- His truck caught fire.
Present (Now)
- He is okay now.
- Matt Payne is the leader.
A2 Tip: Always use "now" with the present tense to make your timing clear to the listener.
