Places In Town # 2 - Plans For the Weekend BE GOING TO - 4 Pages

This is a simple ESL song activity. I tried to avoid the usual "fill-in the gaps" kind of activity, so, if you have some more time to spend, try to play the song before students can read the lyrics, and have them trying to listen how many times they sing "gonna" and "will". Another idea, if they are creative, you can discuss the story in the song. What is she going to do about the situation? How is the boyfriend going to react?
