Aktivitas di dalam kelas

Kesalahan umum

• ❌ "I make my homework every night." → ✅ "I do my homework every night." (kolokasi yang benar adalah do homework, bukan make homework)
• ❌ "I go to the school every day." → ✅ "I go to school every day." (tanpa artikel the ketika membicarakan rutinitas bersekolah; the school hanya dipakai untuk gedungnya secara spesifik, misalnya The school is next to the park)
• ❌ "Please hand in your homework for the teacher." → ✅ "Please hand in your homework to the teacher." (hand in something to someone, bukan for someone)
• ❌ "Raise up your hand if you know the answer." → ✅ "Raise your hand if you know the answer." (raise sudah berarti mengangkat, jadi tidak perlu tambahan up)
