Is There Any Milk? Using Some and Any

About This Resource

A complete Grade 3 ESL grammar pack on some and any with countable and uncountable nouns. Students use some in positive sentences, any in negatives and questions, and some in polite offers and requests (Would you like some juice?). They check a kitchen picture, complete a shopping list dialogue and write about what is and isn't in their own fridge. Includes slides, a lesson plan, worksheet, quiz, homework, flashcards, a rubric and answer keys.

Overview

Students learn a simple rule for some and any. We use some in positive sentences (There are some apples. There is some milk.) and any in negative sentences and most questions (There isn't any bread. Are there any eggs?). When we offer or ask for something politely, we use some in the question: Would you like some juice? Can I have some water? Both words work with plural nouns and uncountable nouns. Students practice with a kitchen and shopping theme, then write about their own kitchen at home.

Learning Objectives

Use some in positive sentences and any in negatives and questions.
Use some in polite offers and requests.
Use some and any with plural and uncountable nouns.

How to Use This Resource

Show the slides: a picture of a fridge. Ask: "Is there any milk? Are there any eggs?"
Do worksheet activities 1 and 2 together.
Students complete activities 3 to 6, then use the quiz and send the homework page home.

Classroom Activity Ideas

Fridge game: one student draws a fridge with food; a partner asks Is there any…? Are there any…?
Shopping list: partners plan a picnic and say We need some bread. We don't need any cheese.
Polite café: students role-play offers: Would you like some tea? Yes, please.

Differentiation

Support: give a chart with positive, negative and question columns and focus on There is/There are. Challenge: students use a lot of and no as well (There is no milk) and explain the difference.

Assessment

Use the worksheet and quiz to check some and any. Use the rubric to assess the fridge game and homework.

Teacher Tips

Students often use any in positive sentences (There is any milk). Give a quick check: Is it positive? Use some. Negative or question? Use any. The exception is offers and requests, where we expect the answer yes, so we use some.
