Crossword

Generally speaking, the word order in English sentences tends to be pretty strict and less flexible than, for example in Spanish. 



This is why you should remember that adverbs of time (yesterday, today, in three weeks, two days ago, tomorrow, for three days, since October….) are almost always placed at the end of a sentence:



I’ll see him tomorrow.

She went to China yesterday.

They have been married for ten years.

I’d like to see you now.



Most of these adverbs of time, may sometimes be placed at the beginning of the sentence, though this is not so common:



Yesterday I saw a very good film.

Tomorrow we’ll fly to New York.





Exceptions



The adverb of time just, which is used with the present perfect tense  has to be placed after the auxiliary verb have/has,  never at the end of the sentence:



She has just left the office.

They have just finished the meeting



PLease notice that the adverbs of frequency are also places between the subject and the verb:



I often listne to music in the evening.

However, when we have a modal verb (to be, can, could, must, should, will..) the adverbs of frequency are usually put behind them:



She is always late.

This is part two of my previous ws in today´s new contributions category. It is slightly more difficult than part 1. There are TWO practice exercises. Although the first is relatively simple, the second requires that students use picture prompts to write original sentences using adverbs of frequency. Teachers should mark for sentence structure and for the correct usage and placement of the adverbs in each sentence.
