"Talk About the Future: Helping Verbs “Will, Shall” for Class 3

This Grade 3 worksheet introduces students to the helping verbs *will* and *shall*, which describe future actions. Through a mix of underlining, blanks, MCQs, sentence correction, and picture-based writing, learners practice expressing what they or others plan to do in the future.

Why Helping Verbs “Will, Shall” Matter in Grammar?

These verbs help children talk about future intentions and promises. For Grade 3 learners, they are important because:

1. “Will” expresses future actions or plans.

2. “Shall” is a polite form used with *I* and *we* for future intent.

3. They strengthen sentence variety and tense control.

4. They help students describe schedules, plans, and ideas effectively.
