Lesson aim

At the end of the lesson, you will be able to recognize and understand the usage of the future tense, apply it correctly in tasks and assignments, and know how to form this tense.

The Present Simple

Gebruik:

Geplande gebeurtenissen in de nabije toekomst , met een vast tijdschema (aankomst-, vertrektijden, openings-, sluitingstijden, begin-, eindtijden) 

Vorm:

 - infinitief ('sing' of 'work') 

- bij he/she/it (SHIT) --> infinitief + s ('sings' of 'works') 

Voorbeeld:

'My bus leaves at 5.05'

'The show starts at nine o'clock'

The Present Continuous

Gebruik:

Wanneer iets in de nabije toekomst zal plaatsvinden. Het gaat dan om dingen die afgesproken zijn (bijvoorbeeld een afspraakje, een concert of een verjaardag, die in je agenda staan). Je hebt er dus al dingen voor geregeld of voorbereid. 

Vorm:

 - vorm van to be + ww + ing (' am singing' of 'are working')

Voorbeeld:

'Tom is taking Karen out for dinner tonight.'

'We are visiting our grandparents next Saturday.'

Denk aan de vorm van 'to be'!!!

To be + going to + hele ww

Gebruik:

Aangeven wat je van plan bent of iets dat waarschijnlijk zal gebeuren. 

Vorm:

- to be + going to + hele werkwoord (''am going to watch' of 'are going to eat') 

Voorbeeld:

'I am going to study for the next test.'

'Look, it is going to rain.'

Vergeet ook hier de vorm van 'to be' niet!! 

will + hele werkwoord

Gebruik:

Als je iets wil beloven, aanbieden of voorspellen voor de toekomst (maar het is niet zeker) 

Vorm:

Will + hele werkwoord ('will be' of 'won't sleep') 

Voorbeeld: 

'It will be sunny in summer. '

'He won't be late next time' 

Ontkennende vorm van will + not = won't 

Questions with will and shall
