  • Let's start this checkup for the future perfect tense.

  • Take a look at the first sentence.

  • It says, 'We _blank_ that book by tomorrow.'

  • The verb to use is 'read'.

  • Remember, in the future perfect tense, we start with the subject,

  • and we have that here, 'we'.

  • Then say, 'will have' and the past participle of the verb.

  • So here we need to say 'will have'.

  • What is the past participle of 'read'?

  • The correct answer is 'read'.

  • They're spelled the same, but they are pronounced differently.

  • 'We will have read that book by tomorrow.'

  • The next sentence says, 'She _blank_ the video by bedtime.'

  • Here we have 'not' so I want you to try the negative form.

  • And the verb to try is 'watch'.

  • In the negative form, we start with the subject.

  • And instead of 'will have', we say 'will not have'.

  • 'She will not have …' Then we need the past participle of the verb.

  • In this case, it is 'watched'.

  • 'She will not have watched the video by bedtime.'

  • Now find the mistake in the next sentence.

  • 'Ryan will not have be to Cuba by summer.'

  • This is the negative form because we have 'will not have'.

  • That's correct.

  • But we need the past participle of 'be'.

  • So we need to change it to 'been'.

  • 'Ryan will not have been to Cuba by summer.'

  • The last sentence says, 'I will have go to school by 8 30 a.m.'

  • Here, we have the affirmative, 'will have'.

  • But, uh oh, we forgot the past participle of 'go' which is 'gone'.

  • 'I will have gone to school by 8 30 a.m.'

  • Great job, everybody.

  • Let's move on.

  • Good job, guys.

  • Now you have a better understanding of the future perfect tense.
