- 3. Introduccion: The next presentation will show us the difference between using THERE IS – THERE ARE, we will learn different ways and situations to use it. We will be practicing a brief activity basing us on some grammar notes.
- 4. Objective: Show students the different ways and situations in which we can use THERE IS – THERE ARE. By the end of the lesson students will be able to identify in which situation we are going to use either one or another.
- 6. There is - There are ** We use there is and there are to say that something exists.
- 7. Positive Sentences We use THERE IS for singular and THERE ARE for plural Example: There is a library on the main street. There are coffe stores on the center.
- 8. Contractions The contraction of there is is there's. Example: There's a Train station next block. There's a laundamet next to the coffe store.
- 9. Negative Form The negative is formed by putting not after is or are: Example: There is not a horse in the field. There are not eight children in the school.
- 10. There Are with ANY When we want to indicate that a zero quantity of something exists we use there aren't any. Example: There aren't any book stores here. There aren't any hotels here.
- 11. Questions To form a question we place is / are in front of there. Again we use any with plural questions or those which use uncountable nouns. We also use there is / are in short answers. EXAMPLE: Is there a supermarket? - No, there isn't. Are there any park? - Yes, there are.
- 12. How Many with Are There. If we want to find out the number of objects that exist we use How many in the following form: How many + plural noun + are there (+ complement). EXAMPLE: How many clothing stores are in the main street? How many schools are there?
