Captivate the imagination of your learner with a tale from Hayo Miyazaki, one of the key creators behind the Studio Ghibli films. In this six-week novel study, we'll not only journey along the path of the wind (the path Totoro takes), but we'll also explore life in Japan in the 1950s. By the end of this class, we will be able to confidently engage in book discussions. We'll enrich our study with excerpts from a memoir, 'Where are you from?' written by Yasuko Horioka, a young girl who grew...
12 lessons//6 Weeks
Week 1Lesson 1Introduction (Ourselves, Hayao Miyazaki, Tsugiko Kubo, and the novel)In this first lesson, we'll take a few minutes to get to know the members of the group. We will set the expectations for our novel study and discussions, and I'll explain our reading journals. Then, we'll get to know the creator of the story and the writer (they are different for this novel) and we will talk about the setting (Japan in 1958).Lesson 2On the road to MatsugoBefore Class: Read Chapter 1: The New Old House (pgs. 9-37) 1- Mini-lesson about shrines and some notes about the role of nature in Japanese culture. 2-Reading discussion (Chapter 1)Week 2Lesson 3Life in the Old HouseBefore Class: Read Chapter 2: Is the house haunted? (pgs. 38-59) 1-Mini-lesson about traditional Japanese homes. I will share an excerpt of a first-hand account from a young girl living in Japan around this time. The vivid description of her childhood home will enrich our understanding of Mei and Satsuki's world.

Totoro (pgs. 227-244) 1- Let's make connections between this chapter and ourselves. The book talks a lot about the passage of time. We'll think about how time feels for us at different points.

I am a certified teacher, and most of my brick-and-mortar classroom experience is specifically with upper elementary (grades 3-5) reading. I have facilitated many book discussions in my classes. I also currently serve as a reading tutor (K-8). These experiences prepare me to facilitate the discussion here and also to differentiate the instruction to meet the needs of your learner.

Homework
빈도: 1-2 per week피드백: 포함됨세부 내용: Homework is an absolute must for this novel study because students will be expected to have read the assigned chapter before they come to class. The readings are typically around 20 pages per lesson. They will not get as much out of class if they do not do the reading in advance. We may read some sections of the book together in the lesson, but this is no replacement for independent reading time. Students will have a reading journal, which I will provide electronically. This is a space where they can take notes that will help them participate in class discussions. It is meant to instill in them some good reading habits and help them think about the sections they've read. This pre-work will help students feel prepared for the class discussion. If you would like to have specific feedback about your learner's reading journal at the end of the course, please send me their completed journal after lesson 11. I will provide feedback within one week after the final class.채점
빈도: 포함됨세부 내용: Their reading journal will be graded upon the caregiver's request. If you would like for me to provide specific feedback to your learner about their reading journal at the end of our course, please send it to me after the final lesson. I can also provide feedback to learners about reading journals on an ongoing basis. Learners or caregivers will have to be sure that I have received the pages they'd like me to review for this to happen. Please give me at least 48 hours to review materials. It is important to me to give you high-quality feedback. If caregivers are interested in a specific aspect of their child's learning, you can request feedback as well. I take notes during every class about learner progress, and I'd be glad to share more about how your child is doing. Please feel free to reach out.
1. The novel study reading journal, which I will provide in an electronic format after our first class meeting, is a must. This may be filled out electronically, students may print it and fill it out by hand, or they may transfer the writing onto their own paper. (If they use their own paper, they should label the sections clearly.) Students will ultimately turn this in for feedback (at the discretion of their caregivers). Even if students do not plan to turn in the work, it will still be valuable for them to complete the reading journal so that they can come to class prepared. 2. Learners will need a copy of the novel called, 'My Neighbor Totoro: The Novel.' The original story is written by Hayao Miyazaki, and the novel itself is written by Tsugiko Kubo. It was published in 2013. ISBN-13978-1421561202 There are other books about 'My Neighbor Totoro', and there is a movie with the same name. Please be sure you are getting the novel written by Tsugiko Kubo. It is available new and used. The cost for a new copy is around $20, but I have seen it for less. You may also check with your local library.
The story of My Neighbor Totoro is told through the eyes of children who are grappling with some challenging life circumstances. The biggest challenge for them is that their mother is sick with tuberculosis and must stay at a sanitorium for an extended period. Students who are grappling with the illness of a loved one may find this content relatable, but I wanted to point it out in case a child is particularly sensitive to this topic.
For information about growing up in Japan, I will rely on a firsthand account called 'Where are you from?' by Yasuko Horioka. Yasuko's story is roughly contemporary with My Neighbor Totoro. She explains concepts such as the layout of a traditional Japanese house, what students ate in their lunches, the significance of bowing, and the role of nature in her life. It is important for students to hear from a Japanese student living in that time in her own words.
