Are you going to ...?
In this intriguing teaching activity, students ask and answer questions about their future
plans.

Before class, make one copy of the worksheet for each student in the class.

Procedure

Give each student a copy of the worksheet.

Tell the students to read each question in the first column and then write a follow-up
question using going to in the third column.

Example:

1. Are you going to go out for dinner this evening?

Follow-up question - Where are you going to have dinner?

When everyone has finished writing their follow-up questions, divide the students into pairs.

Students then ask their partner the questions on their worksheet.

When a partner answers yes to a question, the student puts a tick () next to the question
and asks his or her follow-up question.

If a partner answers no to a question, the student puts an X and moves onto the next
question.

When they have finished interviewing each other, students tell the rest of the class about
their partner's future plans.
