4:10 Class

Ryuki (3) and Ryuha (1) did very well in class. We sang an ABC song and played two ABC games.  When I say the letters and the phonics, they repeat after me. We played some card games. We sang songs and counted our body parts. They are doing well in class.


5:00 Class

Ren(10) is very energetic. He is learning how to make seven different grammatical sentences with verbs. Today’s word was “block”. The sentence he thought of was “私はドアをふさいだことがあります。”  He understands what nouns, verbs and the articles - a, an, the.

The sentences he made with the word “block” are

1. I black a door.
2. The door is big.
3. I am blocking a door.
4. I have blocked a door.
5. I had blocked a door.

He has two more sentences to make.

1. There I am blocking a door.
2. There is a big door.

The two students are learning to read. The students are 4 and five year old. They smasvamced to the reading class level two weeks ago. The four year old joined my class four months ago. The five year old student joined about a month ago. Both are very energetic and are soaking up the information very quickly. The reading lesson for today was:

Let’s Play Together

A. Where are you going?
B. I am going home.
A. What will you do?
B. I will play a game.
A. I want to play a game too.
B. Let’s play together.
A. Thank you.
B. You are welcome.

A vocabulary list is accompanied with this conversation.

7:00 Class

This class has four students in it. The students are from six years old to a sixth grader. In this class, the students are earning how to make questions from statements. This class is really fun. The sixth grader is new to the class and naturally a bit overwhelmed at the knowledge the other three students have. The class is easy so she will reach their level soon.

The statement we used today was

“I climb a big mountain everyday. “

The question this made was “Who climbs a big mountain every year?”

They are doing superb in class.

March Classes

This month has been very fun! We got some new students. One student advance to the next level. In my first class the student is a two years old. He did a great job looking for the letters on a sheet filled with letters. His hearing is very good. He also repeats what I say with ease. I am so happy about that. He has started learning to use a dictionary. He enjoyed looking at the pictures inside of the dictionary. From the next class, I will put more emphasis on the alphabets and phonics. I hope he will be able to advance to the reading class by the end of this year. We play games with shapes and cards. The cards are action verbs, nouns, and adjectives. He is starting to remember the cards and say them verbally upon site. I am really excited about his hearing abilities. That is a great indicator that he should excel in the phonics games we play and eventually pass the phonics test. My second class is really cool. All of the students are doing grammar tests. They are doing very well. T...

The students have to pick the correct card from a group of cards. They are gradually memorizing the cards. I think one of them is actually reading some the words on the cards. We also played with blocks that had different shapes. This class is progressing well.
