Ask students which responses are a promise (C, E, F, H), an offer (B, G) and a decision (A, D).
6. You are going to receive a set of cards with statements. Student A takes a card and reads the
statement to their partner. Student B continues the conversation using will or won’t. Student A
answers with will or won’t, too. Then, swap roles using a new card.
You can find two sets of the cards at the end of the worksheet.
If students are not sure how to use will/won’t in their immediate responses, tell them they can
continue for as long as they need to until have both used will/won’t at least once. You can also suggest
that they continue the conversation after they have both used will/won’t.
