Part B. Power Point Presentation:
Should is a modal verb. Modal verbs follow these rules:
Modal verbs do not take any endings like -s, -ed or -ing (never ‘shoulds’ or ‘shoulded’)
Modal verbs are followed by the base form of another verb (should do, should be)
Modal verbs make questions by inverting the subject and the modal verb (should you?)
I should do
You should do
He/she/it should do
We should do
They should do
Should is most commonly used for making suggestions and recommendations.
You should try the new Vietnamese restaurant!
We should leave now so we don’t miss the bus.
You shouldn’t wash white clothes with brightly colored clothes.
The city should fix these potholes!
In some cases, should can also express a duty or responsibility that isn’t being fulfilled, especially when the structure is should + present continuous.
