activities, I will approach students’ chairs by checking their work and help them if
necessary.

ROUTINE: (2 minutes)
I will greet students, I will say: ‘hello! How are you?’ and I will write the date on the board.
Purpose: to greet my students and create a good atmosphere

WARM UP: (10 minutes)

I will start the lesson by saying writing on the board: “my next holidays”, and I will tell
students that my plans for my next holidays are:

- I’m going to travel to Mar del Plata, I’m going to travel by bus, I’m going to go to the
beach and I’m going to go to the center at nights.

I will say that now, in pairs they have to write something about their next holidays. I will bring
colour papers so they can activate their creativity.
After that, we can make a big poster with the students’ plans for their holidays.

Purpose: to involve students into the topic, to reinforce going to

Transition: good plans for your holidays!!!

PRESENTATION: (15 minutes)

I will write on the board: I cannot go to your birthday party, I’m travelling tonight.

I will ask students in what tense is the sentence is written, underline present continuous. Ask
students: is that present continuous reflecting an action done at the moment? No! Very good, it
is future!! But how do we use present continuous for future? I will explain that present
continuous for future reflects an arrangement made. I will say that there are some time
expressions used: tonight, at …… o’clock, later, this weekend…

Then I will ask for more examples: what are you doing when you leave school? Elicit examples.

Activity: I’m going to give students a worksheet in which they have to use the present
continuous for arrangements. Students can do it in pairs and once they finish we check it orally. Commented [AV1]: True sentences for them?
This way, it would be more meaningful.
