Lesson Report MEL-5 May 21, 2026

Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.

How are you doing?

It’s May 21st, 2026. It’s wet today.

Even though many of you are still in the middle of your school exams, you worked hard and did a great job! Well done.

I hope you enjoyed interviewing your partner about their childhood. It’s always interesting to learn new things about each other—and using English to talk about real memories makes communication much more meaningful.

Take care of yourselves during this busy season, and don’t forget to get enough rest!

See you next week.

Lesson Report Advanced May 20, 2026

 Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.

How are you doing? 

It's May 20, 2026. It's wet in Tokyo today.

This time, you worked on an important Advanced skill: understanding information, organizing it, and communicating it clearly in your own words.

In advanced communication, it is not enough to simply understand English accurately. What matters is being able to process information, ask questions, explain ideas, and connect language to real-life communication.

Step by step, your English is becoming a tool for thinking.

See you next week.

ELST Narration

B1.1 #9 How to make fruit salad

This time, you listened to instructions for making fruit salad and practiced narration.

Before listening, you copied the hints into your notebook. Then, while listening, you took notes and organized the key information.

After that, you explained what you heard to your partner in your own words.

This kind of narration practice helps develop the ability to process information actively rather than simply repeat what you hear.

We also extended the topic into real communication by discussing cooking:

Do you cook often?
What kinds of food do you make?

Using English to connect classroom content to your own experiences is an important part of advanced learning.

After checking the answers, you moved into role-play, using the target language in conversation.

How are you doing?

It's Thursday, May 21, 2026.

It's rainy today.

This time, you practiced an important MEL-3 skill: understanding English, organizing information, and expressing it in your own words.

Small, steady practice makes a big difference.
