September 11, 2013 -- Wednesday
平成二十五年九月十一日 -- 水曜日


After the usual opening with greeting, verbs, and numbers (counting by "6" was one adaptation), students worked on reading and writing kanji numbers in practical contexts, as prices on items that are commonly bought in stores.  This took some time. The price of a pencil, for example, was 十五円 (15 yen) on the handout.  In response to a question by Riley, Sensei wrote on the board "one hundred million," いち おく、一億.


New kanji were written on the board:

のみます の       たべます の 食 
Students practiced writing each one at least 10 times.


Subsequently, the class continued to consider and add to the communal story about ゴジラ.  With this story the class is practicing verb tenses, past and non-past.

                                    ゴジラ

きのう            きょう         あした

-ました         -ます、-ました      -ます

ニューヨーク        七時半におきました。
を食べました        シカゴ
             イアーホンをかいます   デス・メタルの
                         おんがく を
                         ミシガンこ を
                         のみます

A new character is ハローキティ。 ハローキティ は ともだち です か。ガルフフレンド ですか。
