This lesson plan outlines a 135-minute lesson for an 8th grade English class focusing on writing predictions and promises for 2017 using the future tense "will". The lesson involves three stages: 1) An introduction where students discuss their objectives and promises for 2016 and learn about using "will" for promises. 2) A task development stage where students discuss promises in groups, write 5 promises individually, and present them to the class. 3) A post-task analysis where the teacher provides feedback on common grammar mistakes and pronunciation errors from the student presentations. The overall aim is for students to be able to write a prediction letter about their promises for 2017 using "will".
