Hi everybody!
Hope you are doing well!
Let´s go on revising the future tense.
In English, there are several ways of talking about events in the future.
Be Going To is used for intentions and predictions based on current circumstances.
Simple Future Will is used for promises, requests, instant decisions, predictions and future facts.
Present Continuous is used for arrangements, when it’s about a plan with a specific time and date.
I leave you a video where you can state the differences between them.

After watching this video let´s start with PRESENT CONTINUOUS as future.
This is a tense that we have already seen but for the present.
The structure is the same as for the present, but we can use it for future arrangements, as well.
So, let´s start reading some Facebook messages and put them in order, page 22 (exercise 1B).
Then, in exercise D we are going to match the highlighted words in the conversation with the definitions:
E.g. FOR A LONG TIME: FOR AGES.
After that we are going to listen to the audio and complete the information about Lili´s flight (audio 1,62).
Finally, we are going to practice saying dates (exercise 1A, audio 1,61).
That´s all for now!
Take care and stay safe!
Mrs. Valeria.
