宿題が提供されます
Homework will be assigned. Typically if there is not enough time during class, or there are less than 4 lessons in the month, students will be asked to complete certain tasks during the week:
* Complete writing assignment
* Prepare for the read aloud by practicing their reading part
* Prepare for the read aloud by drawing a picture to accompany their part

Additionally, one of the keys to language learning and maintenance is repeated exposure. We ask all parents help facilitate learning by providing lots of exposure to Japanese at home during the week. Here are some suggestions:
* Age appropriate Japanese TV shows 
* Reading Japanese books to your child
* Speaking to your child in Japanese if one or more parents speak it.
授業以外に週あたり 1 - 2 時間の学習が期待されます
