Classwork

• Wrote a 10-minute paragraph for Task 6 (Some people think that children should begin their formal education at a very early age and should spend most of their time on school studies. Others believe that young children should spend most of their time playing. Compare these two views. Which view do you agree with? Why?)

1. The combinations that are most commonly written as two separate words are every time, any day, and no one. 
2. When someday, sometime, everyday, and anytime are used as adverbs or adjectives, they are one word. 
3. When some day, some time, every day, and any time are used as nouns, they are two separate words.
