Hello guys, how’s it going? On the post of
this week, I’m going to show you how to talk about future using the present
continuous. Are you curious? So, keep on reading…
If you want to write or talk about
arrangements made for the future you can use the PRESENT CONTINUOUS tense. Present Continuous is used to say that something was already organized, for example; a
birthday party, a marriage, a trip. Read some sentences:
Examples: • Next week I’m going to the
theatre.
• When are you getting
married?
• She is travelling to Dublin
on the weekend.
Read a dialogue in order to help you understand it
better:
A: Hi, are you doing anything this evening?
B: Yes, I'm going to the cinema.
A: What are you going to see?
B: Pirates of the
Caribbean.
A: What time does it start?
B: 7.30.
A: What are you doing (are you going to do)
after that?
B: I'm having dinner with Doris. See you
later!
An exercise was made by teacher Claudia’s
students from semester 5, class K5, regular English about this topic. Her
students were asked to write some sentences in order to show if they understood
the explanations. Here are some sentences.

I’m finding many adventures. – Alicia Rebeca

Rodrigues
I’m living in Brazil in 2016. – Diego Alves
I’m travelling to Africa next vacation. – Davi Silva Damasceno
I’m doing basic necessities for human survival. – Levi Silveira
That’s it for today. I hope we have helped
you a bit more in your studies. Thanks for your attention.
