Itami OCC Saturday Classes - Saturday, June 6

Level 100

Started off with a fun "Alphabet Worldwide Names" activity, then per Susette's request, the students got into new pairs and went over Activity 1 on p. 23 one more time. We then reviewed the menu on p. 24 and spent some time doing the Restaurant "Model Conversation" on the same page.

Homework: Please complete Activity III on p. 25: Design a sample menu for your restaurant. Follow the example menu on p. 24. 

Level 200

We did the same warm-up activity as in level 100, then dove into the Discussion Questions from p. 28. That took up pretty much the rest of the lesson (great group discussions, they were excited to chat about travel in Japan). We finished by reviewing the vocabulary on p. 29.

Homework: Do the reading on p. 30 and answer the questions in Parts 3 (Active Outline) and 4 (Comprehension Questions) on p. 31.

Level 300

We started off with a brief discussion about "Home," then moved into the unit about "Housework." Lots of spirited discussion about this topic. We ended on "Extending the Topic," Part A.

Homework:

Extra Activity: Debate on p. 32. Please choose either A or B and prepare 3-4 supporting points for your position. Be prepared to discuss in pairs or groups next week. 

Level 400

We started off with a lengthy discussion about "Laziness," then moved into Lesson 5. We covered the homework from last week, then forged ahead a bit in the unit. The students seem to find the book sufficiently challenging, which is a good thing. Lots of new and difficult vocabulary, especially.

Homework: Please do the "Writing with Idioms," "Word Forms," "Using Key Concepts" and "Vocabulary Expansion" activities on pp. 34-35.
