What your student will learn in level 4

Each topic builds on the one before it.

  1. Irregular past: went, saw, did you...?Use common irregular past verbs (went, saw, bought, took, wrote, began) and ask and answer about the past with Did you...? and I didn't...
  2. Past continuous: I was walking when...Describe actions in progress in the past with was/were + -ing and tell what happened in the middle with when and while (I was walking when it started to rain)
  3. Present perfect: Have you ever...?Talk about experiences and recent events with have/has + past participle (Have you ever been to a concert?), use ever, never, already, yet and just, and choose the simple past for a finished time
  4. Modal verbs: can, should, must, mightUse can, could, should, must, have to and might for ability, permission, advice, obligation and possibility, and make polite requests with Could you...?
  5. If it rains: the first conditional and willUse will and won't for promises, offers and predictions, and build first conditional sentences like If it rains, we will stay home, with if and unless
  6. Phrasal verbs for every dayLearn the phrasal verbs used most at home and at school (get up, look for, find out, turn off, hand in), understand them in context and place it and them correctly
  7. False friends and cognatesSpot the false friends between Spanish and English (actually, embarrassed, library, carpet, exit) and use true cognates like important, family and information to read faster
  8. English for school: math and science wordsLearn the English words for math and science class (sum, quotient, fraction, average, hypothesis, conclusion), read tables and graphs, and follow lab and word-problem instructions
  9. English for school: social studies and short articlesLearn social studies words (government, vote, law, citizen, economy, trade) and read short articles to find the main idea, details, context clues and fact vs opinion
  10. Writing in English: paragraphs, emails and messagesWrite clear sentences and paragraphs with a topic sentence and linking words (first, then, because, however), use capital letters and punctuation, and write formal and informal emails and messages safely
  11. Real-life conversations: calls, directions and orderingHandle everyday conversations: phone calls and messages, making an appointment, asking for and giving directions, ordering food and asking for help, with polite requests like Could you...? and Would you like...?
  12. Idioms and figurative languageUnderstand and use common English idioms (piece of cake, break the ice, under the weather, once in a blue moon), tell literal from figurative meaning and build similes like as busy as a bee
