4.. METHODOLOGY
・Students practice Japanese by activities that are done with visual aids of by means of pair works,
group works, imagining the real situation.
・As a preview, sutents have to check new vocabulary in each lesson in the text and read the
grammer explanation that is learned on the day in advance.
・As a review, students have to do some pages of WorkBook at home.
NOTE
・Use as much Japanese as possible
Students have to try to SPEAK IN JAPANESE, using the words, expressions, and grammer
already
learned. If you use English or Spanish frequently in class for what can be expressed in
Japanese,
it will affect your “ class performance ” points.
・Preview and Review to master what is learned on the day.
Preview and Review steadily so that you can use what you learned on the day. Failure to do
this will easily lead to falling behind.
・Late homework will be accepted with penelty.
・Students must be on time for class.
