What is this course about?
This course focuses on increasing skills of sentence building to be able to write and speak at the Year 11 Japanese level, and develops overall confidence in the four language skills: reading, writing, speaking and listening. Also, it will prepare you for your NCEA Level 1 assessments.
Students will study a wide range of everyday situations: descriptions of self and others, daily routines, hobbies, school, travel, and holidays. The focus will be on communication functions and the vital components necessary to succeed include learning Hirigana, Katakana, and some Kanji.

- to learn to introduce yourself and your family
- to understand a weather forecast
- to describe food: how to read and create a Japanese recipe and make sushi.
- to describe past holidays and plan a holiday in Japan
- to use adjectives and adjective endings
- Course design principles:
- intentional planning - you will be invited to select topics that you find interesting
- high expectations - your teacher will have high expectations for you and her door will always be open for you to discuss where your learning is going
- assessment which enables learning - assessment will not be an isolated occurence. Rather, your teacher will gather evidence that you yourself provide of your learning experience as you progress.
What sorts of things will I do?
- create role plays and present them to the class
- spend a day at a Japanese restaurant eating Japanese food and browse around a Japanese shop
