Future Continuous Tense: Video and Gapfill Worksheet

Video: Future Continuous Tense

Worksheet: docs, pub

I used this video from Easy English when introducing the Future Continuous.

In my class, I briefly set the video up by showing the first 20 seconds of it, and establishing that one character is going to visit New York City.  I then stop the video, and have the class predict what she is going to do there.  We then listen to check the predictions.  (The video is quite long, so I only do the first 2 minutes).

I then hand out the worksheet (docs, pub), and have the students fill in the gaps, and then play the video to listen and check.

I think take one sentence from the video to draw a timeline and concept check.
