700 Days... "The Cafe"

Well...This week...

The boys will arrange to meet again at the coffee shop again.

While they are at the coffee shop, they will learn how to order from Jamie....

They will also meet and fall in love with the beautiful girl who works at the coffee shop.

I think this week's story is going to be a lot of fun...

I am also TRYING to make a new game to go with it....wish me luck!

I know that some students who did the lesson on Wednesday and Thursday got a little bit confused with some of the grammar points ...

so to make it a little easier...I made a vocabulary sheet for you guys...

If you have time .. please take a look at it and try to remember the words...it will really help you out in class.

Good Luck!

Summer Vacation is Over...

Well...The summer vacation is over and regular classes started from yesterday.
I decided to stay in Nagano this year and catch up on some work.

I spent most of the vacation making a new file for the kids class....I finally finished it yesterday! Yaaaaaay!!!  It is a little bit too big now.... 250 pages....but I tried to make the new file more fun.

Try a page and see.. from one of the phonics sections...
Oh and remember  ... U says "u", "u"...umbrella

Only 2 of the 6 pictures are exactly the same...

Which 2?

Could you figure it out?  Was it tough?

Anyways....

I also spent time weeding the garden (草取り) at the new Canadian Voice

As you can see the クラピア　is growing very well.

Ayako sensei likes these flowers that grow on the  クラピア ... and the BEES seem to love them but I am not so crazy about them.  I would prefer just a nice "green" colour.

Well..I pulled out a lot of weeds but I think the weeds won...I managed to get most of them but I was surprised at how fast they keep growing back.

While I was working in the garden, I saw so many mosquitoes.

My legs were covered in mosquito bites.

I am sure they come from all the rice fields which are near the school.

I am sure the mail man was relieved to see our new mailbox.

 Now he doesn't have to ring the doorbell every day.  

Take a look!  What do you think of it?

Alright...That's all for now...Hope to see you in class this week...

Adjective + to .....
