Hi everybody! I am teaching future tenses ( will/ to be going to) to my teens class ( 14 ys) and they are not showing much enthusiasm!!! I was thinking about using songs...but I am not very good at finding out the right ones... Can you help me ?
THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Hello Manu,
There are both "will" and "gonna".
My students love this song and I explained them the difference between going to and "gonna".
Have a nice day,

I used "when I �m sixty-four" by the beatles..
(worksheet uploaded here)
I also used a speaking/writing prompt, predicting the future, which worked really well
(also uplaoded here) |

Teens probably want something recent. How about the new Robbie Williams song "This Time"?

I am suggesting you some songs where the futture is used; "I Will Always Love You" by Whitney Houston, "Meet Me Halfway" by the Black Eyed-Peas, "I Will Survive" by Donna Summer, "She will be loved" by Maroon 5 or "I �m Yours" by Jason Mraz I hope this will be helpful for you |

I was looking for answers myself and I found Blank Space by Taylor Swift it uses the contraction of will with different pronouns. |

I also thought of another! The musical Rent has a song called "Will I?" which is sung in a round made of three questions beginning with "Will." Will I lose my dignity? Will someone care? Will I wake tomorrow from this nightmare? |
