The Future Continuous Tense

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

The Future Continuous tense is a verb tense that shows an action happening over a period of time in the future. “I will be driving all night” is an example of the Future Continuous tense, as it indicates an action continuing over a specific future period of time. Compare it to this sentence, written in the Simple Future tense: “I will drive.” Although this example indicates an intention to drive in the future, it does not refer to a continuous action over a specific period of time in the future.

The Future Continuous tense can be confusing because it sometimes seems interchangeable with other future tenses.

This ebook sheds light to all the uses of the Future Continuous tense. It describes how it is formed, when it is used, and has ample practice for students, with plenty of exercises and examples. The relevant answer key to the activities is also included.

The Future Simple Tense

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

When we refer to things that will happen in the future, we often use something known as the Simple Future tense. When we talk or write about plans, expectations, schedules, and predictions, we often use the Simple Future tense. The Simple Future tense helps convey an action or state that will begin and end in the future. We use the Simple Future tense in declarative sentences to state that something is scheduled or planned. It communicates willingness and expresses an expectation, a prediction, or a guess.

This highly practical ebook contains detailed explanations on how the Simple Future is formed, when to use it, and there are plenty of activities in the end for your students to practice and master it. Anwer key is also included.

The Future Perfect Tense

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

The Future Perfect is a verb tense used for actions that will be completed before some other point in the future. For example: "The parade will have ended by the time Chester gets out of bed. At eight o’ clock I will have left."

The Future Perfect tense is used for talking about an action that will be completed between now and some point in the future. On the other hand, the Future Perfect tense is only for actions that will be complete before a specified point in the future. In other words, the action you’re talking about must have a deadline. If you don’t mention a deadline, use the Simple Future tense instead of the Future Perfect tense.

In this ebook, you will find detailed explanations on how to form the Future Perfect tense, when it should be used, and many exercises for your students to practice. There is also the relevant answer key at the end.

The Future Perfect Continuous Tense

By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace

When we describe an action in the Future Perfect Continuous tense, we are projecting ourselves forward in time and looking back at the duration of that activity. The activity will have begun sometime in the past, present, or in the future, and is expected to continue in the future. For example: "In November, I will have been working at my company for three years."

There are similarities and differences between the Future Continuous and the Future Perfect Continuous tense, which might cause confusion. The main difference is that we use the Future Continuous to predict the future, while we use the Future Perfect Continuous to talk about an ongoing action that will finish before another.

This practical ebook will explain how the Future Perfect Continuous is formed, when it is used, and it will also provide plenty of examples and exercises. The relevant answer key is provided at the end as well.

Basic in its main rules and necessary gear, the game can be played nearly anywhere, including official football fields, gyms, streets, schoolyards, parks, or beaches. Football's regulatory organization, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA), projected that around 250 million football players and more than 1.3 billion individuals were "interested" in football at the dawn of the 21st century; in 2010, an overall television viewership exceeding 26 billion tuned in to watch football's top event, the every-four-years monthlong World Cup finals.

The figures by themselves are sufficient to persuade you that football is an excellent motivator for your students. This convenient ebook will enable you to instruct them on fundamental football vocabulary, explore various football-related idioms more thoroughly, and engage in practice exercises to reinforce that understanding. The solutions to the tasks are given at the conclusion.
