(Teacher writes the students’ answers

in the board in a form of conditionals)

[Key concepts:
Conditionals describe the result of something
that might happen (in the present or future) or
might have happen but didn’t (in the past).
They are sometimes called “If clauses”. They
are made using different English verb tenses.
There are three kinds of conditionals:
 The first conditional
(If + present simple,… will + infinitive)

Example: If it rains tomorrow, we will go

to the cinema.

 The second conditional

(If + past simple,… would +infinitive)

Example: If I had a lot of money, I would

travel around the world.
 The third conditional
(If + past perfect,… would +have + past
participle)

Example: If I had gone to bed early, I

would have caught the train.)

-The story tells us not to rush things. We need to

What is the message of the story? advices of our family because they just want well
for us. Making decisions without thinking the
consequences can lead u to regret.
