【１学年】朝読書
It’s already mid-June and it is getting very warm. The junior high and high school students begin their day with “morning reading time”. They can choose what books they want to read and bring them to school. For 10 minutes, before morning homeroom begins, the students can read their novels. This helps calm and focus the students and get them into “learning mode” for the day ahead. For the 1st graders, this is a whole new experience. One can peer into the classrooms and see many novels of different genres as well as nonfiction books.
6月も中旬になり、だんだん暖かくなってきました。中高生の一日は「朝の読書タイム」から始まります。生徒は読みたい本を選んで学校に持ってきます。朝のホームルームが始まる前の10分間、生徒たちは小説を読むことができます。これは生徒たちを落ち着かせて集中させ、その日の「学習モード」に入るのに役立ちます。1年生にとって、これはまったく新しい経験です。教室を覗くと、さまざまなジャンルの小説やノンフィクションの本がたくさん見られます。
