In the Future

This chant/song should help students remember that “in” is used to mark the future (not “after” as usually translated from Arabic). For instance, “See you in a half hour.”

In in in in
In the future, in the future
I’ll be there in a minute
I’ll be there in an hour
I’ll be there in a week
I’ll be there in a year
In in in in
In the future, in the future
A minute from now – in the future
An hour from now – in the future
A week from now – in the future
A year from now – in the future
In in in in
In the future, in the future
This song will end
In a second, in a second.
