Training Class 研修授業

Weather: Cloudy   Plan: Sakugi JHS

I finished making pair wheels for Sakugi Junior High School this morning. Now whenever we have to do pair work, all we have to do is take out the whell, spin it and assign pairs. That way students are able to pair with others that are not sitting next to them. The other teachers in Sakugi and some people from Hiroshima city came to observe our 7th grade class in 5th period today for Tomomi-sensei's 10th year evaluation. Teachers in Japan are evaluated in their 1st, 3rd, 6th, and 10th years of teaching. All the observers said I was really interesting in class. I was surprised that I wasn't nervous at all!

PS: I'm sick in bed today, so no new

今朝、作木中学校で使うためのペア作りシーツを作った。今からペアワークの時、隣通しだけではなくて、さまざまな生徒とペアになれる。5校時、英語のトモミ先生の10年経験者研修について他の先生方や来賓は僕たちの1年生英語授業を見てコメントした。みんなは「トレバー(Trevor)は面白かった」と言った。全然緊張しなかったのがびっくりした!

Pants! ズボン!

Journal for 2006-11-28 Tue..
Weather: Rainy   Plan: Sakugi JHS

It is always fun going to Sakugi Junior High since it is so small. Today was like any other Tuesday, I taught all the grades and the special ed. class and sat around making teaching materials in my spare time. There was one bad thing that happened though. I went to crouch down and my pants got caught on the edge of a desk and ripped! It's too bad. They were beand new pants I bought here in Japan. I have lost 10 kg since I started the diet I am on, so at least I can finally buy new pants here!

人数が少ない作木中学校に行く日々はいつも楽しい。今日はだいたいの火曜日と同じ、1,2,3年とのびのび授業をした。暇で色々な教材を作った。1つの大変なことがあったけど。うずくまりながら、ズボンは机の角に引っ掛けた割れてしまった!残念だ。このズボンは日本で買った新しいものだ。ダイエットが始まるときから約10キロをやせたので、少なくともここにはついにズボンを買える!
