Blog Example

My Day So Far

Today has been a bit crazy but fun! I got up late because I watched a movie last night. Then I had a quick breakfast and went to the gym.

Question 1

So far, I’ve cleaned my room and done some homework, but I haven’t finished my English project yet. I’m feeling quite relaxed now, just listening to music before lunch.

Question 2

Later, I want to meet my friends in the park if the weather’s good. Hope the rest of the day goes well! 🌤️

Question 3

(~130 words)

Imagine you are writing in your diary or updating your status on a social media site about today (100–160 words).

Include the following points:

  • How are you feeling?
  • What did you do when you got up?
  • What have you done today?
  • What haven’t you done yet?

Write your draft

In pairs, ask and answer:

  • What time did you wake up today?
  • What’s the first thing you did this morning?
  • How are you feeling right now?
  • What have you done so far today?
  • What do you still need to do later?

Try to use present perfect (I’ve had breakfast already) and past simple (I got up at 7).

I’ve already… / I haven’t… yet / This morning I…

Think Before You Write: Planning Questions

Make some notes to answer these questions.

  • What kinds of screens do I use?
  • What do I use them for?
  • How much time do I spend each day?
  • Do I think I spend too much time? Why or why not?
  • What’s one small change I could make to improve my habits
Think–Pair–Share: Why do we use screens?

Feeling tired but happy today! I got up early for a run, finished my project, and now I’m watching my favourite show. Haven’t cooked dinner yet though! 😅

What emojis or expressions make it more natural?

What tenses are used?
