Illinois Association of Teachers of Japanese 2022 Nengajō Festival

                                                                                              年賀状

 

A current IATJ member may submit only ONE card per student for each school in which the member teaches.

 

One teacher can enter only 10 entries so that the process of evaluation can be speeded up! Please only submit cards that meet the following criteria.

 

 ● The Nengajō must be on 4x6 inch white, unlined, index card. (年賀状は４ｘ６インチの無地のインデックスカードに限る)

 

 ● The student must write his/her full name

                                                     in ink

                                                     vertically

                                                     on the bottom left-hand side of the card,

                                                     relative to the direction of the design.

It is preferable to write the name in Katakana, but names written in English are acceptable. Students with names that can be written in Kanji may use either hiragana or kanji as appropriate. The use of teacher-assigned Japanese names is not allowed. All students, including elementary students must write his/her full name. (生徒は必ずデ ザインの向きに合わせてカードの左下にインクで縦に名前を書かなければならない。名前はカ タカナで書くことが望ましいが英語でもかまわない。名前に漢字が含まれている生徒はひらがな でも漢字でも適した方を使ってよい。生徒は必ず本名を用い、先生が便宜上、生徒に与えた日 本名は使ってはいけない。エントリーする生徒は小学生も含めて必ず名前を書かなければなら ない。)

 

● The Nengajō design must include: the year 2022 and either GANJITSU (元日) or TSUITACHI (一日) written in kanji. Students may include other appropriate phrases or best wishes in Japanese like

「新年明けましておめでとうございます」, but those mentioned above are mandatory. (他の言葉やフレーズを日本語で書いても かまわないが年賀状のデザインには必ず「元旦」または「一日」の文字が漢字で書かれていな ければならない。) Illinois Association of Teachers of Japanese http://www.ictfl.org/affiliate.html IATJ ミニ通信 (イリノイ州日本語教師会) ２０１６年

 

● The design theme must focus on the up-coming 2022 New Year, Year of the Tiger: 虎or 寅. The design should also creatively focus, in some manner, on how the New Year is celebrated in Japan. The card design should be related to the animal of the year represented in socially acceptable manner. (２０２２年は  虎年  なので、「とら」をテーマにデザインしなければならない。 デザインは誰が見ても社会的に受け入れられるようなものでなければならない。)
