Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.

How are you doing?

This time, we started Unit 2: What is the best way to study?

This topic is especially important because learning how to study is just as valuable as learning English itself.

As we discovered in today's reading, studying for a long time is not always the most effective method. The key is to review what you learn at the right time.

Let's see how we can use these ideas in our own English learning!

See you next week!

ELST

Listening A2.2 #13, Shadowing A2.2 #13

Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing Level 1

Unit 2

What is the best way to study?

We started our new unit by discussing our own study habits.

You talked with your partner about how you usually study and whether the study method shown in the photo looked effective.

Reading 1

The Secret to Good Memory

Before reading, you studied key vocabulary and predicted the content by looking at the article title and the graph, The Forgetting Curve.

As you read the article, you looked for the author's main idea rather than translating every sentence.

The main idea was:

Repetition is the secret to good memory.

繰り返し復習することが、長く記憶に残すための最も大切なポイントであることを学びました。

これは英語学習にもそのまま当てはまります。レッスンで学んだ内容を何度も思い出し、使うことが英語力アップへの近道です。

中学生の基礎英語レベル２（7月号）

(p. 34-) Lesson 65

Review: Shadowing. => Review the example. => Students try retelling in pairs. (2 min.)

Example: Shingo is on a trip to Hokkaido with Gordon. Gordon already likes Hokkaido because it is much cooler than Tokyo. They need to decide how they go to Sapporo. Shingo wants to say, “I guess the train is faster.” He can’t make himself clear to Gordon.

Shingo and Gordon are at Odori Park in Sapporo. Gordon wants to eat sweet corn at a food cart, but they are going to have a big dinner. Shingo thinks Gordon will love jingiskan and wants to say, "I’m sure that you’ll love it," but he can’t say it properly.

Shingo and Gordon are going to Otaru by train. Gordon is excited to find there are many kinds of delicious seafood in Otaru. He likes his guidebook a lot, so he says, “I’m glad that I bought this book.” Unfortunately, Shingo can’t understand what he means.

Shingo and Gordon are talking about the bus to their hotel. Shingo knows they need to get off the bus at the third stop. Gordon wants to know how long it takes and asks Shingo. Shingo should say, “I’m afraid I don’t,” but he just says, “No.”

Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.

How are you doing?

This time, you took on a new challenge: turning a story into a screenplay.

It wasn't easy! You had to decide what each character would say, what information should be included, and how to make the conversation sound natural.

This kind of activity helps you move beyond simply understanding English to actually using it creatively.

See you next week!

ELST Reading

B2.1 #1 The Power of Ice

This time, you studied a passage about how glaciers have shaped our planet.

You copied the text into your notebook, studied the grammar and vocabulary.

Remember that the goal is not simply to translate the text, but to understand the scientific ideas and explain them in your own words.

Bridge Work -3

Chapter 33 Unit 2

I've been waiting for Fred for an hour.

Vocabulary in Use

We reviewed vocabulary related to feelings and emotions by reading example sentences and practicing them with a partner.

Learning vocabulary in context helps you remember not only the meaning of a word but also how it is naturally used.

Grammar in Use

They Are Talking About Ron

This time, you transformed the first part of the story into a screenplay.

Rather than simply completing a grammar exercise, you thought about how the characters would actually speak and interact.

Many of you found this activity challenging, but that's exactly why it is valuable. Writing dialogue requires you to understand the story deeply, organize the information, and choose natural English expressions.

After completing your screenplay, you shared it on Google Classroom and compared your ideas with your classmates.

Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.

How are you doing?

Psychology seems to be a fascinating topic!

As I mentioned in class, don't read English word by word—read for meaning. The goal is to understand the ideas, not to translate every sentence into Japanese.

The more you focus on the content, the more naturally your reading speed and comprehension will improve.

See you next week!

ELST Narration

B1.2 #7 Suggestions About Asking for Directions Politely

This time, you listened to a narration about how to ask for directions politely.

After taking notes, you retold the content to your partner and discussed whether you had ever been asked for directions by foreign visitors.

Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing -1

Unit 8 Psychology

What are you afraid of these days?

We started our new unit on psychology by discussing common fears and where our ideas about danger come from.

Reading 1: A Dangerous World?

Before reading, you studied key vocabulary and looked at a graph showing changes in the crime rate.

You predicted what the article would discuss and shared your own opinions about crime and the media.

As you read, you gathered information about common fears and practiced identifying the author's main points.

One interesting idea we discussed was:

Good news doesn't get as much attention as bad news.

This helped us think about why people sometimes believe the world is becoming more dangerous, even when statistics show otherwise.

Remember, good readers don't just understand the words—they think critically about the information and the evidence presented.
