ブログの宿題（しゅくだい） しめきり 8/31（月）

 みなさん、

 第１課（だいいっか）でいろいろ新しい文法（ぶんぽう）を勉強していますね。漢字（かんじ）もむずかしくなってきましたね。今週末のブログの宿題（しゅくだい）です。

You are required to post at least one blog post this weekend. 

Please choose A (writing) or B (listening); you can complete both if you like!

A: 書くしゅくだい

1. 今、コロナウィルスのせいで (because of; due to)、みんなたくさんストレスがあると思います。〜さん (you)もよくストレスをかんじますか？(かんじる= to feel) ストレスがある時、どんなことをしますか？　解決法（かいけつほう：solution）を書いて下さい。
2. ストレスがたくさんあって、こまっている ( to have troubles) 友だちがいます。アドバイスをして下さい。

Visual Informationもあった方がいいと思います。

B: きくしゅくだい

1) Choose any listening materials in Japanese (Movies, Anime, Song, Drama, Youtube Video, Quiz Show, TV commercial, Game, Radio Program, etc.). As far as you listen to 日本語, any genres and/or length are fine, such as 2-hr movie and 5-min videoclip. You may listen to more than one material with or without subtitles. 

2) Fill out the googleform about your listening/viewing activities. We want to ask you to submit a form for each instance of listening material, so some of you may need to submit multiple forms (once per listening activity). Please write in えい語.

3) Listening activity について、えい語 (or mix with 日本語）でブログを書いて下さい。Feel free to copy & paste your comments on googleform from 2). Including some visual information would be better!

ブログプロジェクトの目的（もくてき）

先学きにもポストしましたけど、もう一度のせます。 

For this class we would like you to keep a blog because it provides a place:

1. To share/express your happiness, surprise, excitement, and/or frustration, as well as any questions you might have, while learning the Japanese language (or any other topics).

• While studying new grammar and words is very important when learning a language, it is equally important to actually use the language in a real life context. You must not wait to express yourself only when you think you have mastered the language because language learning is basically an ongoing process. In the beginning you may use English or any languages to express yourself, but we recommend that you gradually switch to Japanese whenever you feel comfortable enough to express yourself in Japanese.

2. To communicate with your classmates and other people outside of class.

• Language learning is not limited to what you do for the course but also includes what you do and experience outside the class. We will create links to your classmates' blogs as well as blogs by students in other schools, so you can see what other people think and feel about Japanese language learning (as well as other topics). You are also strongly encouraged to leave comments on these blogs.

• We know that your Japanese language is limited, but you can convey your intended meaning more effectively by utilizing other resources such as pictures and videos. Remember that people utilize not only language but also other resources such as tone of your voice, music, body language, picture, color, font style and size for communication.

3. To increase your input (多聴 たちょう/ 多観 たかん: extensive　　　　listening/viewing) as well as

　your output (多書: extensive writing) opportunities.

4.  To reflect (or evaluate) what you have done so far.

• Sometimes it is challenging to see our own progress or growth. Blogs help you to look back and see how you have changed through the course of your Japanese language learning.

• At the end of the semester your blog will be evaluated by the instructors as well as yourself. We will discuss the criteria of evaluation later.
