Japanese Language Course 2025

We studied how to talk about our names, countries, jobs, and hobbies. We talked a lot with the other participants. We also studied how to read dates and days of the week.

We studied how to speak when shopping at a supermarket. We learned the names of things we want to buy and how to read prices (money). We practiced how to talk to the store staff.

We studied about disasters in Tamba City. We learned that there are designated evacuation sites for emergencies. We also tried eating emergency food (survival food).

We played "Karuta" (a Japanese card game) to learn about various disasters. We made "Emergency Bottles" (bottles containing essential items for use during a disaster). We also played "Fukuwarai" (a traditional blindfold face-making game). Note: "Karuta" and "Fukuwarai" are traditional Japanese games played since old times.

We studied how to separate and take out the trash. We learned about the different types of "Recycle Marks" (recycling symbols). We practiced how to sort the trash.

We learned about famous things in Tamba City. We shared our impressions of places we have visited. We also talked about places we want to visit in the future. Everyone created "I've Been There Cards" and "Things I Want to Do Cards."

We studied how to explain symptoms when feeling unwell. We studied how to read medicine instruction sheets. We learned about hospital locations and what items are needed when going to a hospital.

We studied how to send packages to our home countries. We looked up the shipping costs and how many days it takes for delivery. We practiced conversations for use at the post office.
