Simple worksheet with a clear explanation on structure on the near future and a translation exercise. I did this with a mixed ability Y7 class, Mira 2, Module 2.

I used this video with my Y8 class in order to practise the immediate future. After a quick review on the tense (on the sheet), we had a competition to find the meaning of the verbs in the box. Then I played the video and stopped it in the timings specified in the worksheet so they could guess the answers to the questions. I only allowed them to use the verbs in the box or the ones they knew, but no more dictionary here. They were very creative and came up with lots of different ideas and they also enjoyed the film.
