It’s always the simplest things that seem to be in demand. So the other day I put up a series of 12 number picture cards. The first eight fit in with the numbers mix ( e.g. “I have 2 rabbits” etc.) of the “Do you have any pets?” song, and I’ve added in an extra 4 to bring it up to 12. Plus I wrote down a few hints & ideas to help with teaching numbers.
Today I put up an English version of the Numbers Hip Hop song. The track has been a huge success over on the Genki Japan site, and it was a not too tricky task to re-record an English version. It’s in the CD Owners Club so you can download and enjoy it now. The really cool thing is for people who still aren’t sure of the value of using songs, just a few listens to the Japanese version will have you convinced of how songs get a foreign lanugage stuck in your head like nothing else!
