ぼく　の　一日（いちにち） []

9月12日 learn the days of the week in Japanese []

8月23日 みなさん　こんにちは. Welcome to the wiki page for everyone in year 10 studying Japanese at St Bede's this year. As discussed in class today, we can make a decision over the coming weeks as to how we use bedenet (moodle) to support our language learning.

There are several websites with different games to help with katakana recognition. If you want to focus on katakana recognition specifically, you might want to check out the links on the katakana（カタカナ） page.

Here's a link to one of my favourite games for improving script recognition. Although I realise we've only learnt the stories for ア、イ、ウ、エ、オ、カ、キ、ク、ケ、コ so far, it's a good way to check your recognition skills.

**Concentration games online (Play virtual memory)** __[|http://www.mc.maricopa.edu/~emiahn/concentration.htm]__ //Beat the clock!!! How many katakana can you match up with its corresponding reading in 40 seconds.....20 seconds?// //Try playing this game for five minutes a day and you’ll soon notice the difference.// //Give it a try and let me know what you think. Be warned – **it can be addictive!** // <><><><><>

**Useful expressions that have come up over the course of recent lessons:** おひさしぶり　です　ね. It's been ages since I saw you

さいきん　は　どう　でした　か. How's it been recently? よかった　です. It's been good. すごかった　です. It's been great. 楽しかった　です. It's been fun. つまらなかった　です. It's been boring まあまあ　でした. It's been so so. あまり、　not that great.....

ゆき　が　ふりました. It snowed. ゆき　が　ふって　います. It's snowing.

ペン　は　だめ　です. The pen's no good. しずか　に　して　ください. Please work quietly. きれい　に　かいて　ください. Please write it neatly. <><><><><> **How can we describe all the things we do in Japanese?**

Person は　object を　〜 ます. (Someone does something)

たとえば： わたし　は　テニス（てにす）　を　します. I play tennis. せんせい　は　日本語　を　はなします. The teacher speaks Japanese. ひろしさん　は　えいが　を　みます. Hiroshi watches movies. みきさん　は　え　を　かきます. Miki draws pictures. <><><><><>
