期間:2月9日〜4月24日 5月8日〜6月22日
最近、リオくんは車の運転の練習をしています。11年生になると車の免許を取り始めるそうで、自分より年下の子達が車を運転することができるのはすごいなと思います。私の周りの子達はテストがあるそうで、休み時間に勉強しています。私も勉強を頑張ろうと思います。
In this week’s hospitality class, I made lamb and mango curry. This was my first time making curry without using curry roux, and I was impressed by cooking it with a pressure cooker. Adding the mango right before finishing surprised me. Also, we used Thai rice. I felt a strong taste of fruit, but it was tasty. While we were cooking, a student noticed me washing dishes, and he was willing to wipe the tools that I had finished washing, so I was happy. I felt it was awesome that he could casually show consideration. In addition, I heard about activities to recognize diversity. I heard that students draw portraits and have the opportunity to talk about their birthplace. On Thursday, I took kindergarten and primary school classes. At the kindergarten, they learned greetings such as Konnichiwa and Konbanwa and were drawing pictures based on those words. There was also a picture book read about a monk and a tanuki. At the primary school, they were researching Japanese food and watching a video about candy making and a video about wasabi farmers’ stories. In this class, I watched students who were researching sushi and mochi. I felt it was a good opportunity to learn about other countries’ cultures since they are young. Recently, Leo has been practicing driving a car. I heard that when they become year 11, they start to get a car license. I think it’s amazing that students younger than me can drive a car. I hear that everyone around me has exams, so they study during recess. I’d like to do my best too.
