Good morning,
everybody.
We will get started at
11:00.
Cameras on. Mics
muted.
Today’s
agenda:
· Replacement test
· Causative verbs
· “Grandparent’s Day” I emailed this to you a few minutes ago. Check
your email.
**
Replacement test:
You will have an opportunity to do a replacement test
on Monday. This will be exactly the same deal as the replacement quiz that we
did last month.
If you have a test that are not happy with, you can
replace the mark with this mark.
Test#1 4/6
Test#2 3.7/6
Test#3 5/6
Test#4 3/6 4/6 2/6
You can choose to replace one of these marks.
Replacement test 4/6
Replacement test 2/6
If you are reasonably satisfied with your test marks,
then just leave them as they are. This replacement test is people who had a bad
test, had a bad day, missed the test, etc.
Email me by 1PM Friday, tomorrow if you want to do a
replacement test. No lates.

Causative verbs – very useful verb form
A causative verb makes
another verb happen.
e.g. help

I will help you to fix the bicycle.
help, allow, invite, require, hire, encourage,
tell, ask + infinitive ‘to ABC’
e.g
-allow to ABC

-invite

-encourage

help, make, let +
infinitive – ‘to’

his truck.
‘help’ can be used both ways

need /
require

sit down, please.
-require –

Two groups of causative verbs:

tell, ask + infinitive

infinitive ‘to’, base form
