Class Experience

***Each section of the class will require at least 3 students to open. When there aren't enough students to start a class, the starting date will be extended to the following week.

***This is an ongoing class that students will come to class with images they would like to use to steer the weekly conversation.  

Students will collaboratively create a collage with age-appropriate images which they will use as the topic of each meeting's conversation. They will be given the first five minutes of the class to create collages on the shared digital board. When the time is up, students will take turn to practice commenting or asking questions about the collage.  

I will be there as a facilitator of the board and conversation, answering any questions students may have on grammar and expression.  Students are encouraged to use two browsers, or two devices at each meeting, so an online dictionary is always at hand.  

/////////////////////////////////////////////////
We'll tackle these topics if we can't come to a decision on the topics.

Color
Music
Food
Weather
Customs and traditions
Anime you are currently watching
Manga you are currently reading
Musicians you like
Karaoke

These are just suggestions and we'll use a roulette to decide on the topic if no one wants to pitch in a topic.

Learning Goals

Students will strengthen their ability to create with language with words of their choice, converse on impromptu topics, and become comfortable speaking the target language.
