What do you notice about how each future form is used — is it a plan already decided, or a decision made now?
Complete the sentences with will or be going to (correct form).
Well done — you can tell the difference between a quick decision and a planned intention!
Build full sentences from the cues using will or be going to.
✓ I will help you with the assignment.
We are going to use a new app next term.
I will revise more carefully.
The teacher is going to give a handout tomorrow.
I will focus on grammar tonight.
They are going to do a project on technology.
Write 2-3 original sentences about your study plans for this week, using will for quick decisions and be going to for plans you have already made.
Use will for decisions made at the moment of speaking, promises, offers, and predictions without evidence. Use be going to for plans already decided before speaking and predictions based on present evidence.
TRKonuşma anında verilen kararlar, sözler, teklifler ve kanıta dayanmayan tahminler için 'will' kullanılır. Konuşmadan önce zaten karar verilmiş planlar ve mevcut kanıta dayanan tahminler için 'be going to' kullanılır.
We use will for spontaneous decisions ('I'll answer that') and be going to for plans ('I'm going to study tonight').
TRAni kararlar için 'will' ('Ben cevaplarım'), planlar için 'be going to' ('Bu akşam ders çalışacağım') kullanılır.
Be going to needs the verb 'be' before 'going to'.
TR'Be going to' yapısında 'going to'dan önce 'be' fiili kullanılmalıdır.
Will never takes -s, even with he/she/it.
TR'Will' hiçbir zaman -s eki almaz, he/she/it ile bile.
| will | be going to | |
|---|---|---|
| Decision | made nowI'll open the window. | made earlierI'm going to open a new notebook for this class. |
| Prediction | opinion / no evidenceI think we will enjoy this topic. | based on evidenceLook, the projector isn't working — we're going to have problems. |
What do you notice about the difference between advice (should) and obligation (must/have to)? What is added at the end of the first sentence, and why?
Complete the sentences with should, must, have to, or a correct question tag.
Great — you're using advice, obligation, and question tags accurately!
Build full sentences from the cues, choosing should, must, have to, or a question tag.
✓ You should focus on grammar.
Students must not use phones in class.
I have to submit the homework today.
You ought to ask for feedback.
This app is useful, isn't it?
You don't like group work, do you?
Write 2-3 original sentences giving study advice or describing a classroom rule, and add one sentence with a question tag.
Use should/ought to for advice and recommendations. Use must for strong personal obligation or rules from the speaker, and have to for obligation coming from outside (a rule, a teacher, a schedule). Add a question tag to a statement to check information: positive statement + negative tag, negative statement + positive tag.
TRTavsiye ve öneri için 'should/ought to' kullanılır. Konuşanın kendi koyduğu güçlü bir zorunluluk için 'must', dışarıdan gelen bir zorunluluk (kural, öğretmen, program) için 'have to' kullanılır. Bilgiyi teyit etmek için cümlenin sonuna bir soru eki eklenir: olumlu cümle + olumsuz soru eki, olumsuz cümle + olumlu soru eki.
We use should/ought to when giving advice, must for strong rules or feelings, have to for outside obligation, and question tags when checking or confirming information in conversation.
TRTavsiye verirken 'should/ought to', güçlü kurallar veya kişisel görüşler için 'must', dışarıdan gelen zorunluluk için 'have to', konuşmada bilgi teyit ederken soru ekleri kullanılır.
Should is followed directly by the base verb, without 'to'.
TR'Should' fiilinden sonra 'to' kullanılmadan doğrudan fiilin yalın hâli gelir.
A positive statement takes a negative question tag.
TROlumlu bir cümlenin sonuna olumsuz bir soru eki gelir.
| must | have to | |
|---|---|---|
| Source of obligation | speaker's own feeling/strong ruleI must finish this tonight (I feel it is important). | external rule/authorityWe have to wear a uniform (school rule). |
| Negative meaning | must not = prohibitionYou must not cheat in the exam. | don't have to = no obligationYou don't have to attend the extra class. |
What do you notice about the words ending in -self/-selves, the pronouns showing ownership, and the two modal verbs — how sure or certain is each speaker?
Complete the sentences with a reflexive pronoun, a possessive pronoun/'s form, can, or might.
Excellent — you're mixing pronouns and modals accurately!
Build full sentences from the cues using reflexive pronouns, possessives, can, or might.
✓ She did the project by herself.
Can I borrow your dictionary?
This laptop isn't mine — it might be Deniz's.
We might have a quiz next week.
He taught himself how to use the app.
Can you help me with this exercise?
Write 2-3 original sentences: one about doing something by yourself, one asking for permission with can, and one about a possible plan using might.
Reflexive pronouns (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves) show that the subject and object of an action are the same. Possessive pronouns (mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs) and 's show ownership. Can is used for ability, permission, requests, or possibility. Might is used for a weaker, less certain possibility than may or can.
TRDönüşlü zamirler (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, themselves) eylemin öznesi ve nesnesinin aynı kişi olduğunu gösterir. İyelik zamirleri (mine, yours, his, hers, ours, theirs) ve 's eki sahiplik bildirir. 'Can' yetenek, izin, rica veya olasılık için kullanılır. 'Might', 'may' veya 'can'e göre daha zayıf, daha az kesin bir olasılık bildirir.
We use reflexive pronouns when the subject does the action to itself, possessives to avoid repeating a noun, can for everyday requests/permission, and might when we are not sure something will happen.
TRÖzne eylemi kendine yaparken dönüşlü zamir, bir ismi tekrar etmemek için iyelik zamiri, günlük rica/izinlerde 'can', bir şeyin olup olmayacağından emin olunmadığında 'might' kullanılır.
Reflexive pronouns are not used as possessives before a noun.
TRDönüşlü zamirler bir isimden önce iyelik sıfatı olarak kullanılmaz.
Possession for people is usually shown with 's, not 'of'.
TRİnsanlar için sahiplik genellikle 'of' ile değil, 's eki ile gösterilir.

Özgün metin ve anlama soruları.
Every morning, our classroom is full of different learning activities. In the first lesson, we usually work in pairs and check our homework together. Our teacher walks around the room, listens to our conversations, and gives quick feedback when we make a mistake. Some students prefer working alone, but most of us enjoy pair work because we can help each other understand new words.
Later in the day, we often do a short presentation. Each group chooses a topic, prepares a few slides, and speaks in front of the class. At first, many students feel nervous, but after a few presentations, they become more confident. Presentations are also a great way to practise pronunciation and organise ideas clearly.
In the afternoon, we sometimes use a tablet or a computer for an online quiz. This is going to be a normal part of every lesson soon, because our school is going to buy more digital devices next year. Some students are visual learners and remember new grammar better when they see a diagram on the screen, while others are auditory learners and prefer listening to a short recording.
At the end of the day, the teacher gives us a handout with revision notes and says, 'You should read this at home tonight.' Not every student agrees on the best learning style, but everyone must complete the homework by the next lesson. For most of us, a mix of pair work, presentations, and technology makes learning more interesting than just reading from a book.

Not every student learns in the same way, and understanding your own learning style can make studying easier. Some people are visual learners: they remember information better when they see it as a picture, colour, or diagram. Other people are auditory learners, who understand a new grammar point more easily after listening to an explanation or a recording rather than reading it silently.
There is also a third common style, sometimes called hands-on or kinaesthetic learning. Students with this style often say that they learn best by doing something practical, such as acting out a dialogue, building a model, or moving around the classroom during an activity. If you often find yourself doodling in the margin of your notebook, you might actually be a hands-on learner who needs movement to concentrate.
Of course, most students are not only one type. You might be mainly a visual learner but still enjoy listening to a short podcast, and you should try different methods before deciding what works best for you. A simple way to discover your style is to keep a short learning diary for two weeks and write down which activities helped you remember new vocabulary or grammar most easily.
Teachers can support different learning styles by mixing activities: showing a diagram for visual learners, playing a short recording for auditory learners, and adding a hands-on task like a role-play for kinaesthetic learners. As a student, you don't have to wait for the teacher to do this — you can also adapt your own revision at home, for example by turning your notes into a mind map, a short recording, or flashcards you can hold and sort.

DenizOkay, so for our project on learning styles, what are we going to do first?
ElifI think we should make a short survey and ask our classmates about their favourite way of studying.
DenizGood idea. I'll design the questions tonight, and you can ask people tomorrow, right?
ElifSure. We also have to include some information about technology, don't we?
DenizYes, the teacher said we must add at least one section about using apps or devices for revision.
ElifOkay. I might use my own tablet to make a simple presentation, if that's fine with you.
DenizThat's a great idea. Can I help you choose the pictures for the slides?
ElifOf course! And we shouldn't forget the handout — the teacher wants a printed summary too.
DenizRight. I'll finish the survey questions by myself tonight, and we'll meet again on Thursday.
ElifPerfect. This project is going to be really interesting, isn't it?
NarratorHi, I'm Kaan, and I want to share how I study for English lessons.
NarratorFirst, you should always revise your notes on the same day, not just before a test.
NarratorI usually make my own flashcards, and I test myself every evening for about ten minutes.
NarratorYou don't have to use expensive materials — a simple notebook is enough.
NarratorI'm a visual learner, so I often turn new grammar rules into small diagrams or colour codes.
NarratorIf you're not sure about your own learning style, you might try a few different methods this month.
NarratorI also use a vocabulary app on my phone, but I must remember to close social media apps first!
NarratorFinally, ask your teacher for feedback regularly — it really helps you see your progress.
