The title of my presentation is GUIDE FOR THE GROUP DISCUSSION AND DEMO LESSON.
Group Discussion as explained by Niimi sensei which you will have in the morning right after my presentation….
And also for the Demo Lesson which you will do this afternoon.
We are providing this guide:

2. Guide for the Group Discussion
(How to Make a Lesson Plan)
Ok, let’s start with GUIDE FOR THE GROUP DISCUSSION which you will do this morning…right after my presentation.
Later, in your group discussion, you are going to make a LESSON PLAN…
皆さん、Lesson Planを作っていますか？
何を書いていますか？
Basically, in a Lesson Plan, we write the steps in teaching a “bunkei” or sentence pattern….
You might wonder for which bunkei you are going to make a LESSON PLAN.
(as mentioned by Niimi sensei) you will draw lots and be assigned a PARTICULAR BUNKEI.

3. STEPS IN TEACHING A BUNKEI
1. Goi Donyuu
2. Wakaraseru
3. Oboesaseru
So, the lesson plan that you will make will consist of the ff:
1. Goi Donyuu- is introducing the goi that you will use in the bunkei.
2. Wakaraseru- is introducing a bunkei in a context of a situation.
3. Oboesaseru- is the pattern practice for kuchinarashi or for getting used to saying
the bunkei…(that’s why oboesaseru)
4. Tsukawaseru- is the portion when you let the students apply the bunkei in a
situation.
(facilitators will give further details)
4. Tsukawaseru

4. 1. Goi Donyuu Pick out the goi to be used in your bunkei Make drawings

6 cues
Make a Substitution Drill
Include introduced

In Oboesaseru portion, make a Substitution Drill, maximum of 6 cues, include the introduced goi.
I’ll show you an example of Substitution Drill (click)

Sample of Substitution Drill
Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu.
1. Ringo

(show the substitution drill)
This is an example of Substitution Drill.
In your group discussion, make cues for your substitution drill.
Here, you use the goi that you introduced in the Goi Donyuu.
5. Wain
6. Biiru

8. 4. Tsukawaseru Make a drill or activity where
　　the bunkei can be applied
Make the instruction for
　　the drill/activity
For Tsukawaseru…(just read everything in the slide)
For our bunkei:
Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu
An example of a drill would be to let the students open up to their classmates
1. by using the bunkei and
2. mentioning something they really like
Here is an example of Tsukawaseru Drill (click)
Think of the example for
　　the drill/activity

9. (Instruction and Example)
Tsukawaseru Drill
(Instruction and Example)
(Instruction)
T: Ja, minasan, reveal yourselves to your
classmates by using the bunkei and by
mentioning what you really like.
(Example)
In Tsukawaseru Drill, always give
- clear instruction
- and give an example
Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu.
This is true for me.

10. Oboesaseru & Tsukawaseru
-teacher gives cues
-students say sentences
even if cues do not apply
to them.
Oboesaseru
-teacher doesn’t give cues
(situation only)
-students are given freedom
in their choice of words
Tsukawaseru
To help you understand better the difference between OBOESASERU and TSUKAWASERU…
In Oboesaseru portion, teacher gives cues (read everything in the slide)
In Tsukawaseru portion…(read everything in the slide)
Going back to Oboesaseru slide (click)

11. Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu.
Sample of Substitution Drill
Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu.
1. Ringo
2. Sakana
3. Tokoyaki
For example, even if a student doesn’t like ringo,
He has to say:
“Watashi wa ringo ga suki desu.”
For the Tsukawaseru portion, teacher doesn’t give cues…
Like in our example, the teacher says reveal yourselves by using the bunkei and the students are free to say their preference.
So, I hope this will help you for the group discussion.

This is what I showed you earlier:
“Minasan, asagohan o tabemashita ka?

Do you remember?
This is how you create the situation in class to introduce the bunkei..
So after you have introduced the bunkei….”Watashi wa Starbucks ga suki desu.”
Let the students say the bunkei…
Then write the bunkei on the board and explain only if necessary.
(ideally, the teacher should have been abled to show the meaning and structure of the bunkei through the situation.
