Hey guys.  I practice dance because I’m a maiden in the service of a Shinto shrine (it called Miko in Japanese).  I will show this dance New Year’s Day.  So I must practice harder.  Do you have any plan for New Year’s Day?  Please tell me. Haha

a.    What did you study in class today?

First, I study about reading because I’m not good at reading and dislike it.  So I opened NetAcademy, then I chose level3.  The title of it is “prejudice against HIV”.  And I advanced Advance stage.  It is difficult for me, but I like it.  I typed sentences and memorized vocabulary etc…  I probably studied 20 to 30 minutes.  Sorry, my memory is not certain.  Second, I opened Ferris Online and I chose English Bites.  I studied by using this website for the first time.  This website can study listening.  I listened about Australia’s news.  The title is “Bridge climb” and “Mardi Gras”.  I studied about 25 minutes. 

b.    What your opinion of website?

I like NetAcademy because it can enjoy studying.  And sentences of exercise can learn besides English, I think.  Then, English Bites is easy to understand for me.  It explains what words mean.  I like this point. 

c.     What did you learn about English?

I learned new vocabularies.  And I acquired the speed reading power.

d.    What did you learn about your study skills and strategies?

I think I should read English books because I’m not good at reading skills.  And my vocabulary is so poor.  I remember it as much as possible.

Hey guys.  Last Sunday, I went to Lake town in Saitama with my friends.  Do you know it?  It’s a very big shopping mall.  And I went to ABC cooking studio, I bake a cake.  It looks great and I presented for my parents.  My dad said “Yummy! We needn’t buy cakes by shop.” all the time. J haha  So I had a great weekend. What about you?

a.    What did you studey in class today?

I studied various things by using NetAcademy and Living English.  I studied on NetAcademy after a long time because I studied on Living English recently.  So, today I studied Net Academy about 50 minutes and Living English 20 minutes.  On NetAcademy, I studied about vocabulary and listening.  Title of the listening is “Small travel to dune”.  It is written about Tottori dune.  So I studied it completely, then I advanced advance stage.  And on Living English, I listened episode 40-42.  42 is final episode.  So I finished this website.

b.    What your opinion of website?

First, Netacademy is good.  We can study what is appropriate for own level.  Forexample, I think I’m good at listening but I’m not good at about vocablary.  So each level is different.  In this respect, I like it.  And advance stage is interesting!  I like it.  We can learn again, and this typing game is fun.  Next is Living English.  I love it because it’s about human drama.  So I was able to study while enjoying it.

c.     What did you learn about English?

I studied a lot of vocabularies on both website and listening skills and grammar, correct spelling.  And about conversations.

d.    What did you learn about your study skills and strategies?

I study by using NetAcademy as much as possible.  And I think I should listen to western music when I ride on train or something.  Then, I review grammar because I foget it.

Thank you for reading.
