Welcome to SandJ English.

I have a busy day today.

I'm going to clean my house.

I'm going to wash the windows,

vacuum my room,

do the laundry

and clean the kitchen.

[sigh]

Do you have any plans?

Yeah.

I'm going to relax and …

relax!

Our topic today is "Future Plans".

Let's look at our phrase.

We use this phrase to talk about a planned activity in the future.

For example

"I'm going to meet my friend tonight"

Usually we talk about our plans in the near future.

In spoken English, we usually don't say “going to”,

but we pronounce it as “gonna”.

For example

Now, I will give you some examples.

Please listen and repeat.

Let's practice!

-- Listen and Repeat --

To talk about the future,

we use “be going to”.

But in other situations we use “will”.

Let's compare them.

"Be going to" is used for a planned future activity.

“Will” is used when the future activity is not decided.

Good practice, everyone.

Sasha.

I'm gonna have a cup of tea.

Would you like some?

Yes, I'd love to.

No milk please.

What are you doing, Jenny?

I'm practicing Kendama.

Cool, isn't it?

I'm gonna take part in a Kendama competition this weekend.

Are you gonna come with me?

I'd love to,

but I'm gonna be busy.

What are your plans?

I can't tell you that.

Sasha, tell me.

See you next time.
