Task 3. Read Jack’s note to his sister. Find and correct mistakes in the use of the future tenses. The first mistake is already corrected. Ann I go/ am going to Peter with the kids in a few minutes. We’ll be play cards until 10.30 or so. While we’ll play cards, Peter’s daughter will be watching the kids. It will rain, so I closed all the windows. Don’t forget to watch “Friends”! It will start at 10.00. If you will be hungry help yourself to pizza and ice-cream – you find them in the fridge. I call you after the card game because by the time we get home you’re sleeping. Enjoy your evening! Love, J.
