Activities for Teaching the Simple Future (PART II)


1. A Camping Trip

Have your students even been camping? Have group 4-5 brainstorm what they will need to prepare for a camping trip. Then have students discuss what role they will play in preparation for the trip using the simple future. For instance: one person might say : “ I will collect the fire wood”

2. World Tour

If your class comes from all around the world, have each person plan a trip to a city in his home country for the whole class. Each person should take 3-35 minutes to share with the class what they will do on the trip.

3. Story Stoppers

You can use simple fairy-tales to help your students practice using the simple future. Tell them a traditional story, but stop before the resolution to the problem. Students predict what will happen at the end of the story. You can also use this technique with any literature you may be reading in class.
