In some cases, it is possible and correct putting or not commas, however

the sense of the sentence changes a little.


In other cases, it is not possible to put commas, because you really

NEED that part of the information to define the subject. E.g.


In others, its better to put commas since the subject is really defined by
itself.

vocabulary and simple structures as comparative and superlative. The idea was to

BIG, HAPPY and BEAUTIFUL


Explain we use comparative to say something with respect to another
thing, we are comparing between two similar items. This chair is bigger
than this other chair.
Explain how to make the comparative with each of them:

1.
2.
3.
4.

Short - Shorter (normal)


Big - Bigger (it finishes in Consonant, Vowel, Consonant and stressed).
Happy - Happier (-Y, changes to -IER).
Beautiful - more beautiful (too long adjective)

*We need the word THAN to connect the things we are comparing.
Now time for superlative. When we want to point out the quality of

something among a big group.


Explain how to form it:

1. Short - THE shortest (normal)


2. Big - THE Biggest (it finishes in Consonant, Vowel, Consonant CVC
and stressed).
3. Happy - THE Happiest (-Y, changes to -IEST).
4. Beautiful - THE MOST beautiful (too long adjective)

When using the superlative, we use IN for a place and OF for a

group. Peter is the tallest student in the classroom (place).


Peter is the tallest of his family (Group of people).
You can finish with PRESENT PERFECT +
EVER. It is the most beautiful child I have ever seen.
