Future Talk for A2 Pre-Teens

Ten-to-twelve-year-olds are full of wishes and plans, from what they want for their birthday to what they might be when they grow up. These 50 questions channel that forward-looking energy into A2-level English conversation, asking pre-teens to share their plans for the weekend, describe their dream holiday, talk about what they want to learn next, and imagine what they will do when they are older.

Vocabulary focuses on the words pre-teens need to express hopes and plans: 'want', 'hope', 'dream', 'wish', 'plan', and 'maybe' combine with structures like 'I want to...', 'I am going to...', 'when I grow up, I will...', and 'I hope to...' that introduce future forms through genuine personal expression.

Why Pre-Teens Love Dreaming Out Loud

Pre-teens still dream without embarrassment. A ten-year-old who says 'I want to be an astronaut and live on Mars' is neither joking nor being impractical; they are expressing a genuine wish. This uninhibited dreaming is perfect for A2 speaking practice because it removes the self-consciousness that often blocks language production.

Making A2 Future Talk Fun

Start with near-future questions about tomorrow or the weekend, then gradually expand to bigger dreams. YapYapGo sequences questions to build confidence. The pair format means every child speaks for half the time, and the timer keeps rounds short enough to maintain A2 attention spans.

Frequently Asked Questions
