Week 22
Práctica combinada: pasado y futuro con going to.

What will we achieve today?

Session Objective: Differentiates between past actions and future plans, using past simple and 'be going to' correctly in context.

Community Connection: We will connect this language structure to describe our own life experiences, family stories, and community realities in Popayán and the Cauca region.

Key Concepts

• Contrast: Past simple is for finished actions (yesterday I studied); going to is for future plans (tomorrow I am going to study).
• Time signals contrast: yesterday/last vs tomorrow/next.
• Verb changes: past simple verbs inflect, while 'going to' uses the base verb after 'to'.

Practical Challenge: Time Traveller

Write a postcard from the year 2050 describing what you did yesterday (past simple) and what you are going to do tomorrow (going to).

Reflection & Wrap-up

Self-assessment Question: Correct the tense errors: 'Yesterday I am going to eat pizza, and tomorrow I went to the park.'
