おはようございます。
今日は木曜日ので、日曜日の天気が分からないけど、ZoomUPには、何でもいいですね。雨が降ったら、蒸し暑くなったら、レッスンをしましょう。
Good morning! Today is Thursday, and we don't know the weather for Sunday, but as for ZoomUP, we can do it no matter the weather. If it rains, or if it's hot and muggy, no problem for a lesson.
前のように、2時半から始まります。
最初の時間はレッスンので、後に、同じテームのゲームを遊びます。(大体、一時間ぐらい)時々、簡単の英語の映画を見るので、今まだ決めたない。
As before, we start at 2:30 pm and do a lesson for an hour. After that, using the same theme, we play a game (generally for another hour) or watch a simple movie in English.
テームについて考えました。たぶん、サーカーと思いますが、でも断然です。I'm thinking about the theme, and haven't decided for sure, but maybe it will be soccer.
でも、今まで、誰もサインアップをしませんでしたので、明日(金曜日)の午後までに、少なくても二人は興味がないと、夏休み後に延期すると思います。
However, as of now, no one has signed up, so if at least two people have not expressed an interest by tomorrow afternoon, we will postphone the next lesson until after summer vacation.
前のZoomUPのレッスンについてブログの物語を見たかったら:
For my blog post about previous Zoom UP lessons, please see here:
Chieko-san, Rei-kun, thanks for signing up.
Today, I went to the English library and borrowed some books about soccer that we will use, and I'm thinking of some other teaching ideas on the theme.
If more students sign up, it will be great.
As usual, its even more fun with a group.
I don't know the Japanese for "Enthusiastic".
Enthusiasticという言葉が日本語で分かりません。
I've been working hard on the preparations, but not totally done yet.
I have lots of good ideas and materials. We will start at 2:30 and finish by 4:30, including game time. Everyone bring their own drink. Remember to bring your Zoom UP notebook.
たくさん準備をしたので、まだ終りません。
いろいろいい考えを使います。明日の2時半に始まります。4時半までに終るので、ゲームを含める。皆自分の飲み物を持ってきて、ZoomUPのノートも忘れないで。
If more students want to attend, please sign up. First timers always welcome. もっと生徒を参加したかったら、ぜひ、サインアップをしてください。
初めての友達もようそこ。
Thanks to everyone who attended ZoomUP on Sunday.
The theme was soccer, and we did lots of interesting things.
Our warm up book was "Preston's Goal". It was silly and fun.
Then we talked about the names for player positions, and then spent a lot of time using various vocabulary related to playing soccer in sentences, for example: kick and kicked, run and ran, win and won, lose and lost. We learned some new words like substitute and defend. We also tried to understand the "offside" rule in English and in Japanese.
After all that, we played a game involving the tournament bracket for the world cup using dice and flags. Everyone got lots of English practice.
