Futures

Anna: Hey, Sarah! What are you doing this weekend?

Sarah: I’m visiting my grandparents. What about you?

Anna: On Saturday, I have my guitar lesson in the morning. It starts at 9:30, so I have to wake up early.

Sarah: That’s cool. Are you going to practice a new song?

Anna: Yeah, I’m going to learn one for our school concert next month.

Sarah: Oh, I didn’t know about the concert! It sounds fun! I think I’ll ask my parents if I can come.

Anna: You should! By the way, are you free on Sunday?

Sarah: I don’t think so. My cousin is coming over, and we’re going to bake cookies together.

Anna: Nice! Let me know if you have any left—I might stop by!

Sarah: Sure, I will.

The dialogue shows examples of intentions, using 'going to', scheduled events using present simple, already organised plans using present continuous, and spontaneous decisions and promises using will.
