The Future Tenses - Other Future Forms - Present Continuous - Teaching Idea

 

This teaching idea is very similar to the activity we can use for the future continuous. We pair up our students, give them diaries and have them find the day on which both of them are free to meet. This video shows you exactly how to execute this activity in the classroom.
