This B2 First & First for Schools Future Tenses Discovery Task is a student-centred, movement-based grammar lesson designed to help learners notice, analyse, and internalise future tense forms and uses through guided discovery.
Instead of presenting rules first, students actively explore authentic-style texts, identify real examples of future tenses, and collaboratively construct meaning, making complex grammar more memorable and exam-ready.
What’s included in this resource:
Guided discovery worksheets covering all future tenses (will / going to, present simple for future meaning, future continuous, future perfect simple and future perfect continuous)
4 engaging reading articles rich in contextualised future tense examples
Clear answer key
Step-by-step teacher guidance for smooth classroom implementation
Methodology & Pedagogical Approach
This resource is grounded in guided discovery learning, a core principle of communicative language teaching (CLT) and cognitive grammar instruction.
Key pedagogical features include:
Noticing hypothesis (Students identify and categorise target structures in context, encouraging deeper cognitive processing rather than passive rule memorisation).
Inductive grammar learning (Learners infer form–meaning relationships themselves before rules are confirmed as a class, promoting autonomy and long-term retention).
Meaning before form (Grammar is introduced through purposeful reading texts, mirroring how language appears in Cambridge exams).
I am sure there is more but this is what we took into consideration when preparing this resource.
