How to Unlock the Genki Past Tense Songs/Lessons!

On today’s zoom call Maria asked for a list of the Genki English Past Tense Lessons/Songs.   You’ll find these “hidden” throughout the curriculum. Then when you’re ready you can go back and “unlock” them, often by changing just one word,  which makes them really easy to teach! 🙂

So they are …..

Adventure Lesson 7:  I, you, he, she pronouns song transforms from “I am, you are” etc. into “I was, you were” etc.

 

Giant Level 46:  Summer sports transforms from “I like scuba diving” into “I went scuba diving” etc. with the question being “What did you do in the Summer?”

 

Incredible Lesson 50:  “What are you doing?” transforms into “What were you doing?” and “I’m eating, reading etc.” change into “I was eating, reading” etc. 

 

The “Oh My” Level Checklist song covers “Did I celebrate, get enough sleep, ask for help etc.” 

 

 And of course for irregular past tense we have Miracle/Mega Lesson 86 with “Baby Dinosaur, what did you do?” 

 

All the lessons you can find in your Teacher’s Set And/Or Student Set menus!  Enjoy!

    Hi Richard, this is great !
    I’m just reading previous comments and I’m in the same situation. I have all 15 volumes but can’t see the past versions in “pronouns” and “what are you doing”. Is there something I should do ? Thank you Richard

    Hi Sophie! I just sent you the full set update links! As I do each updated theme I send out an email so keep an eye out for those in the future (or check the spam folder!) and I also upload them in the VIP Facebook group, so keep an eye on that one too! Do let us know what you think of the new past tense songs! 🙂
