Future tense

The future tense is used when we talk about something that will still happen in the future (in an hour, a day, a week, a month etc).

We use words like will and going to and sometimes we use shall (we shall).

Example:  He will go do some shopping tomorrow.  The winter will soon be here.  I'm going to need a lot of food to survive in the wild next month.

Example: night - I sleep during the night.  Knight - The knight rescued the princess.

First of all make sure you know the meaning of the different homophones and then fit them in the correct sentences.
