This section is the second section on the future simple and focuses on using going to. Currently 143 Going To worksheets are listed on this page. This is another topic that your students may find rather easy but it is important to explain the difference in meaning conveyed by using going to instead of will so that they can express themselves more clearly. This worksheet actually combines both forms of the future simple tense; it would be ideal for students who have already learned both future simple structures. There is a variety of exercises as well as a summary of the uses of both forms. Do not feel obligated to complete the entire worksheet. Since the file is editable, you can just delete sections you do not want to use or add your own activities. There are more worksheets in this section with some of them focusing entirely on going to so browse through this section before deciding what kind of worksheet you would like to use in class.
