Hello everyone! This week, you are writing 1 paragraph about your plans for a one-week vacation.
You can choose any city or country in the world. Say what you are going to do every day of that week.
Just remember, you are using the PRESENT PROGRESSIVE.
As we said in class, this verb tense can be used for actions in the future. To do this, you must specify when the action is happening, so use dates, days, times, moments, etc.
For example:
- When I arrive to Las Vegas, I am eating a big buffet dinner at the Bellagio.
- On Wednesday morning, I am playing poker at the casino. That night, we are watching a Cirque du Soleil show.

Delete(*Good job, but remember to use the present progressive if you are talking about the future, like in this case. When you speak in the present, it is to narrate something you are doing now, or did in the past in a literary form. Also, if you mention a day of the week, you have to say "ON" before.)
