5th Grade English Review - Affirmative and Negative Sentences

Hello Fifth Grade!


Today I think we should practice and understand how to make sentences affirmative or negative.


Affirmative - means "yes", is the most simple, you must conjugate the verb

Ex: I speak Spanish.      /      He speaks Spanish.           /          They speak Spanish.

Negative - means "no", you must add "do not" or "does not" before the verb, verb is INFINITIVE

Ex: I do not speak Spanish. / He does not speak Spanish.  /  They do not speak Spanish.


NOTE: "don't" is the conjunction of "do not" and "doesn't" is the conjunction of "does not"

NOTE2: In negative the verb must be INFINITIVE after don't/doesn't. See how it is "He speaks Spanish" and "He doesn't speak Spanish" without "s'?



Watch this video for a quick review:




Activity:   Change all affirmative sentences to NEGATIVE.   Change all negative sentences to AFFIRMATIVE.

Ex: She doesn't ride her bike.   She rides her bike.
Ex: Maricarmen doesn't live in Madrid.        Maricarmen lives in Madrid.
