4. The world tomorrow
Create a list of changes you expect to see by the year (at least 5 items)
Discuss these changes with a partner.

5. Will and be going to
For the most part will and be going to, they are interchangeable and mean the same thing. The only exception is when we use will to talk about a decision that was made at that instant. Be going to is used to talk about planned events.
Note- be going to is FAR MORE COMMON in speech that will.

6. Simple present Meanings
Use it to refer to programs, timetables, itineraries and public events that we have no direct control over.
The plane leaves on the 20th.
When does the film start?
We leave on Saturday at 8:00 PM.
The plane arrives in Rome at 8:30AM.

7. Your turn
Create a future sentence with a simple present tense.

8. Present Progressive with future
Meanings
While the going to future form is often used to discuss intentions (possibly prearranged), the Present Progressive is used more for referring to solid arrangements and plans. For example, we are more likely to prefer this form when we have made a booking at a restaurant or theatre or have bought tickets for a train/plane journey. This tense is often accompanied by a time adverbial such as next month, in July etc.
Next holiday we're staying in a five-star hotel. (the reservation has been made)
They're all taking the day off on the 7th.
I'm spending Christmas in the Bahamas.
We’re traveling to Japan in August. We already bought our tickets.

9. Your turn…
Create a future sentence with present progressive.

10. To talk about two separate actions in the future, use will or be going to in the independent clause and the simple present in the dependent clause.
independent clause
Ex. We’ll rent/ we’re going to rent a car when we get to Italy Dependent
As soon as the class is over, I’m going to go shopping.
When I get home, I’ll make a list.
I’m going to watch a movie after I finish dinner.
Which events are happening first?

11. Your turn
Write a sentence using will or be going to in the independent clause, and the simple present with the dependent clause.

12. Exercise 2
Remember, the teacher’s job is not to know everything about the English language. The teacher’s job is to teach you how to use the language so that others can understand the meaning of your message.
Now that I said that…
What were the directions on pp. 38?
Use the present progressive if possible.

So far, we have been in class for _____.
By 11:30, we will have been in class for _____.
The class is not over, but the last sentence describes what things will be like when class ends.

15. Future perfect
We use the future perfect to show an action, state, or event that will happen before a certain time in the future.
By the end of our trip, we will have seen a lot of wonderful things.
You can also use the future perfect in the progressive.
By the end of summer, we’ll have been traveling for several weeks.
NOTE- we often use the future perfect with by and by the time.
By the time we finish our trip, we’ll have visited 10 countries.
