People did well on the spelling test today, but I did make a mistake when I wrote February on the board. I forgot the first "r". Tsuyoshi was kind enough to point it out at the end of class.
We started the unit on imperatives today. The homework for next week is the Language Check on page 22. Remember don't look at the Duet activity before class! Please add a comment 3:45:39 PM

People did a good job with the homework today. The sentences that you wrote using the vocabulary were very good. It was interesting that after you finished you made sure that your partner knew which ones were fact and which ones were fiction.
Chisato, our observer today, is a newlywed so her opinions about relationship were very different the rest of class who have been married a long time. The homework is to read the article again and answer the questions. Also look at the Think about It questions. Please add a comment 3:41:06 PM

This morning Yumiko asked what breaking ball meant because she had heard it on MLB broadcasts. If you want to know more baseball lingo this site has a good list.
We continued talking about adverbs of frequency and instead of talking about just one day we talked about a whole week. It seems no one has a regular housework schedule. As I said in class, when I was young my mother kept of very strict one. I wonder if it was because she didn't have as many household appliances as we do now and everything took longer.
Next week write sentences using your partner's information and create an identity for one of the people on page 9. Use your imagination. Please add a comment 1:31:16 PM
