“The future depends on what you do today.”
This worksheet helps students understand and practice the difference between “will” and “going to” for future meaning. It includes a clear explanation followed by four differentiated sections: identifying correct usage, completing sentences, rewriting for accuracy, and applying knowledge in real-life contexts. The activities gradually increase in difficulty, making it suitable for mixed-ability classrooms. A complete answer key is provided for easy correction and self-assessment.
