Speaking class Activity: RESTAURANT 2

  We have little time, because each of our group member is very busy. We have a lot of bother in having a meeting, but we could do it this week.
  We decided which part each member covers, so I am working hard to prepare for speaking now.
   I'll challenge to make a better speech than ever.

Speaking class Activity: RESTAURANT

  In next project, we are going to make our own restaurant and final presentation on video. My group is planning to make curry dishes, but I think it is difficult to attract many people in the world only with curry. So in the meeting this week, I want to suggest that we serve delicious sweets of the world. I hope our restaurant will be so nice.

My reading: Four books for children

  I read four books for children this time. They were pleasing, I think.
  One of them is "THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR". This book is translated into Japanese, and I have read this story as a small child. I like the bright-colour pictures.
  And I read two books of "THE ORIGINAL PETER RABBIT BOOKS" series. The pictures are very soft in tone,and very pretty. I also have read these stories in Japanese.
  "Cat and Cat-face" was interesting. There was the friendship between different species in this story.

My reading this week 10

  A book that I chose this week is "Vanity Fair".
  I thought Amelia will lead a happy life, when she married George. But she was not happy after the news of her husband's death. And she had many problems.
  What I realized in this reading is that my level has a little risen. Next, I will challenge level 4!

Speaking class Activity: Song!

  We worked on a song this week. Its name is "Blackbird".
  "Take these broken wings and learn to fly~~~You were only waiting for this moment to arise", it says.
  I think it is a song for encouragement. Even when we feel down about our failing, we must take broken wings, that is, we must keep trying rather than give up. Everyone sometimes fails. I was encouraged to keep going by this song.
