Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.
How are you doing?
This week, we continued exploring the Psychology unit and thought about an interesting question:
Are all fears reasonable?
As we discussed in class, good readers don't just understand what a text says—they evaluate the ideas and think about whether they make sense.
We also learned how word families and however can make your English more accurate and natural, especially in academic writing.
See you next week!

ELST Reading
B2.1 #3 Fossils and the Alps
This time, you learned how fossils found in the Alps provide evidence that the area was once covered by an ancient sea.
You studied the grammar and vocabulary in pairs, practiced reading aloud, and shared your Japanese translation on Google Classroom.
As always, remember to focus on understanding the ideas rather than translating word by word.
Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing -1
Unit 8 Psychology
What are you afraid of these days?
Reading 2: Can We Trust Our Fears?
We reviewed the article through overlapping reading and then discussed which fears are reasonable and which are unreasonable according to the text.
You also answered comprehension questions and supported your ideas with evidence from the article.
Next, you voted on a discussion question and wrote your own response. Sharing your opinions and supporting them with reasons is an important part of academic communication.
Vocabulary Skill
Word Families
You learned how words change depending on their part of speech.
For example:
- fear → fear, fearful
- danger → dangerous
- belief → believe
- safety → safe
Understanding word families helps you expand your vocabulary and choose the correct form when reading and writing.
Writing Skill
Contrasting Ideas with however
We began learning how to connect two contrasting ideas using however.
This is an essential skill for academic writing because it allows you to present balanced opinions and make your arguments clearer and more logical.

Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.
How are you doing?
This week, we continued practicing retelling and focused on one of the most important sentence patterns in English: SVOO.
Rather than memorizing grammar rules, we practiced saying the same pattern again and again until it felt natural.
The more you hear and use these patterns, the more naturally English will come out when you speak.
See you next week!

中学生の基礎英語 レベル2（7月号）
(p. 74-) Lesson 75
You reviewed this week's story through shadowing and retelling.
After listening carefully, you explained the story in your own words with a partner.
MEL-4では、「聞く → 理解する → 自分の言葉で伝える」という流れを大切にしています。
Bridge Work Book 2
Chapter 17 Unit 2
Could you lend me some money?
This week's focus was the SVOO sentence pattern.
For example:
Ms. Robinson taught Ron's class World War I yesterday.
We also practiced changing the sentence into another pattern:
She is teaching it to Fred again now because he wasn't listening.
Through listening, repeating, typing, and pair practice, you learned that these two sentence patterns express the same idea in different ways.
The goal was not simply to understand the grammar, but to use both patterns naturally in conversation.
By repeating them many times, you began developing an intuitive feel for English word order.
Speech Navigator Level 2
Unit 2
People Around Me
You reviewed the sample speech through shadowing and learned useful words and expressions for describing people around you.
These expressions will help you prepare for your own speech in the coming lessons.

You continued practicing listening and vocabulary through ELST.

Hello, Class! This is Towako from MEL School.
How are you doing?
This week, we continued our Psychology unit by exploring an interesting question:
Can we always trust our fears?
Fear is an important emotion that helps protect us, but sometimes our brains make us feel more afraid than we need to be. Understanding why this happens is one of the fascinating topics in psychology.
Keep reading for meaning, not just for words. That's how your English and your thinking skills will continue to grow.
See you next week!

ELST Narration
B2.1 #1 Most Humans Use Their Right Hands Better
This time, you listened to a narration about why most people use their right hand more skillfully than their left.
After taking notes, you explained the main ideas to your partner and discussed:
What do you think the most difficult thing is to do with your left hand?
We also checked the script together and learned useful vocabulary and expressions related to everyday life.
Q Skills for Success Reading and Writing -1
Unit 8 Psychology
What are you afraid of these days?
Reading 2: Can We Trust Our Fears?
We began a new reading about the purpose of fear and how it affects the way we think and make decisions.
Before reading, you studied key vocabulary, predicted the content of the article, and discussed your own biggest fears with a partner.
As you read, you practiced identifying information in the text, deciding whether statements were true or false, correcting inaccurate statements, and finding evidence to support your answers.
One of the main ideas of this lesson was that fear can protect us, but it does not always give us an accurate picture of reality.
Learning to evaluate evidence before reaching a conclusion is an important part of both critical thinking and academic reading.
