Context:
The じこしょうかい is an integral part of the Japanese culture and encourages students to reflect on their own cultural protocols. This activity gives students an opportunity to present personal information. Students will build on and strengthen all five key competencies as they develop their language skills through to level 8 and beyond.
- A is an example of a beginning student introducing herself in Japanese. This kind of text can be used in authentic situations, for example, if students are visiting from Japan or when meeting other Japanese-speaking students. This information can be added to as new information is learned, and could be revisited on a regular basis.
- B is an example from a different student, written later in the year.
- Note: some of the language in these examples could be taught as formulaic expressions, not necessarily as language communication functions, for example, 〜を べんきょうしています。
