Sometimes can go before the subject, before the main verb, and after the main verb. (3) Examples: Sometimes we go fishing. We sometimes go fishing. We go fishing sometimes.

Take note: Adverbs of Frequency and Present Progressive

We usually use adverbs of frequency with the present simple, but they can also be used with the present continuous. The adverb comes between the auxiliary and the main verb. (3) Example: She’s always losing her phone.

let's act

1. I will split the class into two groups. 2. Team A nominates one player from their team to act. 3. I will decide on a sentence in Simple Present + Frequency adverb, and will privately message it to the chosen actor. 4. I will set a timer (1 minute) and the game starts. The actor must act out the sentence using facial expressions and actions, but without saying a single word. 5. Team A must keep trying to guess the action until the timer is up. You can guess as many times, by constantly shouting out their guesses.
