About this lesson
In Lesson 24 we review and consolidate everything we have learned so far in the A1 course. We practise using "there is" and "there are" for existence, "have got" for possession and the modal verb "can" for abilities. We revise when the definite and the indefinite article are used, as well as the quantifiers much, many and some/any. The lesson ends with practical writing of a personal letter to a new friend, following a ready-made model.
