Let's solve these exercises step by step! 📚

1️⃣ Exercise 1 - Completing sentences with forms of "be":
1. I'm going to do karate next weekend. (already complete)
2. My parents are going to visit Canada.
3. We are going to have dinner at home.
4. My sister and I are going to do our homework together.
5. Lucas is going to buy a new bike.
6. I am going to play video games all evening.
7. She is going to make lunch for us.
8. They are going to start school tomorrow.

2️⃣ Exercise 2 - Making negative sentences:
Just add "not" after the form of "be". Example given:
- I'm not going to do karate next weekend.

3️⃣ Exercise 3 - Writing sentences with prompts:
Example shown:
- I'm not going to get a new bike tomorrow. I'm going to get a new bike next weekend.

For the others, follow the same pattern using ✓ (correct) time expressions:
2. We're not going to take an exam in a few days. We're going to take an exam this afternoon.
3. I'm not going to write a letter tonight. I'm going to send an email tonight.
4. They're not going to move house tomorrow. They're going to move house next week.
5. She's not going to go running this evening. She's going to do aerobics this evening.
6. I'm not going to start university next month. I'm going to start university next year.

4️⃣ Exercise 4 - Making questions:
1. Are you going to use a computer next weekend? (example given)
2. Is your best friend going to visit you tonight?
3. Are you going to travel abroad next summer?
4. Are your friends going to start university next year?
5. Are you going to take any exams next year?
6. Are you and your classmates going to have maths tomorrow?

Remember: For questions, move the appropriate form of "be" (am/is/are) to the beginning of the sentence! 🎯
