KIFL Senka Global Studies & Business Communications Skills 5/23 lesson plan, your favorite foreign person in Japan & review for 5/30 BCS mid-term short presentations

Hello to all my Senka students,

Here's the Global Studies lesson plan for 5/23:


SPECIAL NOTE TO EISUKE IN GS: You can find the answers to your question from page 15 Part 1a about the real numbers of foreigners living in Japan in 2006 on Part 4, pages 18 and 22, in the orange Global Studies textbook (I'm sorry! I had no time to post the numbers here!)

*REMEMBER: Who is your favorite foreign person living in Japan (such as a TV personality, actor, actress, journalist, commentator, singer, musician, etc.)? I'd like to hear more about yours. Post a comment to this blog post and tell me!

Here's the Business Communications Skills lesson plan as well:


ALL OF YOU  DID VERY WELL TODAY IN BOTH CLASSES! YOU HAD GREAT DISCUSSION AND GROUP WORK. YOU ALL DID A GREAT JOB!! I was especially happy today - thank you for your effort. 

**REMEMBER: FOR BCS NEXT WEEK (5/30) - Mid-term short mini-presentations about the companies or organizations you selected - A FEW NOTES:


When preparing to speak to the class: 
1. Begin with the name of the company or organization and where it is located (headquarters and  where the company or organization was founded if it was started in a different location).                               
2. Then go to when it was founded (what year).                                                                                         
3. Have a brief history about the company/organization - where or how it grew bigger, what markets it      entered, and most importantly - when did it expand its operations to Japan? (when did it first enter         Japan, and where? Tokyo? Osaka? Give examples.)                                                                                   
4. Show or talk about a product or service the company/organization is involved in. (If you have an           example of a product from a company that you use and if it's small - BRING IT TO CLASS!)                                                                                                                                              
5. Thank the audience (your classmates) and ask them for any questions or comments about your         company or organization.

***REMEMBER! You don't have to select only a company. You could select an organization - such as a university, or non-profit organization (such as, for example, the Red Cross). 

When we're finished with our presentations on 5/30, we'll continue with the budgeting activity we started today (5/23) in the business class. 

Good luck! I'll look forward to hearing each of you speak next week.

  2. I like her too. She looks a real blend of many things - she could pass for Hispanic (Puerto Rican, Mexican or Cuban), and the first time I ever saw her I thought she was Hispanic.

    Sorrry that you struggled to post a reply before. Hope it's much easier now. Take care! you did a good job today in both classes. See you next week - and I hope my voice is much better!
