A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Use page 1 and reserve the suggested answers. Page 2 gives models, not the only acceptable plans; imagined responses are welcome.

  1. Model a rain question using if + present simple and will + base verb. Include both the condition and its result.
  2. Write answers to the ten prompts, then practise them with a partner. Change the question's you to I where needed.
  3. Compare structure with the suggested answers, accepting different plausible content. Ask one follow-up question about the plan.

Support and extension

Support with If..., I will... frames. Extend by reversing clause order and adjusting punctuation; learners need not disclose real money, work or sleep problems.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
