- Hello, everyone! My name is Benny. And I’m a teddy-bear.

- Hello, boys and girls! I’m Legoman!

- Welcome to our lesson!

- We are happy to see you!

- All right! Now we can start our lesson.

And today in the lesson we will:

Сегодня на уроке мы:

· revise the modal verb “can”;

повторим модальный глагол “can”;

· learn new words and revise the old ones;

выучим новые слова и повторим старые;

And

· put the knowledge into practice.

и применим знания на практике.

Let’s start! And first, we will revise the modal verb “can”.

It’s translated as “мочь, уметь”.

Now let's answer the question:

How do we form sentences with the modal verb “can”?

If we want to form positive sentences, we can say:

I can walk

He can walk

She can walk

It can walk

You can walk

We can walk

They can walk

Look at the examples:

Caroline can drive a car.

Кэролайн умеет водить машину.

Or

Christopher can skate.

Кристофер умеет кататься на коньках.

If we want to form negative sentences, we can say:

I can’t walk

He can’t walk

She can’t walk

It can’t walk

You can’t walk

We can’t walk

They can’t walk

Look at the examples:

Caroline can’t drive a car.

Кэролайн не умеет водить машину.

Or

Christopher can’t skate.

Кристофер не умеет кататься на коньках.

And if we want to form questions, we can say:

Can I walk?

Can he walk?

Can she walk?

Can it walk?

Can you walk?

Can we walk?

Can they walk?

Look at the examples:

Can Caroline drive a car?

Кэролайн умеет водить машину?

Or

Can Christopher skate?

Кристофер умеет кататься на коньках?

Now look!

If the answer to the question is positive, we can say:

Yes, I can.

Yes, he can.

Yes, she can.

Yes, it can.

Yes, you can.

Yes, we can.

Yes, they can.

And if the answer to the question is negative, we can say:

No, I can’t.

No, he can’t.

No, she can’t.

No, it can’t.

No, you can’t.

No, we can’t.

No, they can’t.

- Boys and girls, that’s all you need to know about the modal verb “can”!
