Does anyone recognise this resource?
I found a resource of printed files that I have labelled 'On-line readers'. I know that I printed the teacher's notes and worksheets because they were available, but I can't seem to find the actual site or CD. It doesn't appear to be quirky comics, sugoi or the On-line resource for Years 5-8. The units and topics I have are: 私のこと (Who is it?, Do you have a pet? Ken's Day, My Family, I love my room) 所 食べ物と健康 私の世界 物語の世界 行ったり来たり Pamela Abson ptsherls@yahoo.com I hope many students will be able to participate in this year's contest. It's a great way for students to improve their confidence in speaking Japanese.
Dear NSW Teachers of Japanese Language The 45th NSW Japanese Language Speech Contest is fast approaching. Please kindly encourage your students to participate in the upcoming contest. It will be a challenging but most rewarding day for all parties involved. There will be a Cosplay Corner and Japanese furoshiki wrapping demonstration during the event. Application and General Guideline can be downloaded from the MJS Centre Website: www.mq.edu.au/mjs Wakaba Division is open once again this year for Year 9, 10, 11, 12 beginners. We look forward to meeting you and your students. The 45th NSW Speech Contest Date: Saturday 20thSeptember 2014 Time: 9:00 - 3:00 (approximate) Venue: Macquarie University (Dunmore Lang College) Application Closing Date: Friday 5 September 2014 If your students are participating from the regional NSW, accommodation is available on campus. We look forward to meeting you at the Contest. For enquiries please contact: Tomoko Koyama, MJS Centre, Macquarie University tomoko.koyama@mq.edu.au We are planning to run some workshops for committed students of Japanese in Years 8-9 in NSW government schools. Some teachers may have seen Shingo Usami presenting the obento workshops developed by Western Australia at our conference. Shingo has agreed to work with our students and we are seeking interest especially from country schools. We would need one school to be the hub providing a venue, and hosting students and teachers from neighbouring schools. Shingo thinks a maximum of 50 students per workshop is ideal, and there would be a limit on the number of students each school could send. We would like the Japanese teacher to attend with their students as a professional development activity, and can provide relief for this purpose. The workshops would run from 9.30 to 2 pm and would cost approx $15 per student.
The dates available for these workshops are: September 2 - 19 October 27 - 31 November 3 - 21 Could interested schools please email me by 31 July indicating whether they would like to be a hub or just a participant, and letting me know their choice of dates? I will then work out a schedule and get back to you with more details. Please email sally.shimada@det.nsw.edu.au We have a Japanese language teacher (part-time) position available for our evening course starting Term 4, 2014. Please see detailed information on our web site.
http://www.jpf.org.au/index.html Thank you very much! Kind regards, Junko Yano | Program Coordinator Japanese Language Department The Japan Foundation, Sydney 02 8239 0055 / www.jpf.org.au The wonderful ABC has had several programs recently that deal with how people cope with the death of loved ones. I thought they might be useful for your Extension students.
Compass at 6.30 on Sunday evenings is currently doing a series looking at faith and funerals across different religions and cultures. The ABC also took an interesting look at funeral traditions in the recent Billy Connolly's Big Send Off : ABC TV www.abc.net.au/tv/programs/billy-connollys-big-send-off/Cached Billy Connolly embarks on a personal and enlightening journey where he looks at our attitudes towards death. Australian Story recently looked at the first novel by Brooke Davis, Lost and Found, which she wrote after the unexpected tragic death of her mother. It has been sold for publication in 25 countries. And the documentary Tender looked at a community-based funeral cooperative, lamenting the fact that funerals have become so impersonal and removed from families and culture. There is a study guide produced to go with this documentary. As the above 4 programs are from ABC TV they should be available on iview. And the new movie Still Life also deals with these issues, highlighting the issue of Connectedness. Here's a new resource from our Refugee Student Programs Advisor. Hopefully you can use it with your students. http://www.roads-to-refuge.com.au/
I would like to ask advice on the most suitable text book for Year 9. I have a smart bunch of language learners who are mostly gifted and talented. Could teachers advise which textbook would suit a high level of Year
9 students? Thank you for your help! Regards Hoseon Han hoseon.han1@det.nsw.edu.au East Hills Girls HS I'm looking for teachers who can help me with my Yr 12 students' speaking exam, as an external marker to mimic the HSC interview. My school is based around Liverpool area, and I'm happy to mark for other students as well.
