Everyday Grammar - Your Evening Routine

From the creator

Jill: Hi, John! How was your holiday? Didn’t you have relatives come to stay with you? John: I did. And they brought their children. We had ten people for dinner! Jill: I know it was fun to see all your nieces and nephews. Where did they sleep? John : Sleep? I don’t remember them sleeping at all! Jill: You need to learn about evening routines, John. John: Will a routine help me get the children to sleep? Jill : Sure! First, they should pick up their toys. John: I see. So they don’t have something to play with. They all go in the box! What’s next? Jill: They should listen to a story. Read to them in a quiet place, and talk about the story with them. John: Hmm. I think that will help them to learn, too. Jill: Right. Next, they should brush their teeth and go to bed. Help them with their blankets, then turn out the lights and say goodnight. John: I remember my mother tucking me in at night. You know, all of these verbs can help people write about their own evening routines. Jill: Good idea! They can use pick up, listen, read, talk, brush, tuck in, and turn out. John: And that’s Everyday Grammar! Originally published at - https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/6438299.html
