Presentation skill

Hi:) Today I'd like to introduce about an useful site for making presentations Penny taught us!
The name of the site is Prezi. By using this, we can make presentations easily.
And it makes our presentation more interesting:D
Actually it was a little hard for me to use this because I'm not good at using computer:(
However, I wanna get used to using this site!
I think presentation skill is very important for teachers.
And next week we have an opportunity to give our presentation for students from Beijin.
It must be our good experience!

This is my presentation about Hiroshima!

A part of my UK life

Hi:) Today I'd like to write about a part of my UK life!
Last Wednesday we had "Bring Dish"party in Warwick university.
We talked with other Japanese students and foreign students.
And we ate a lot and listened musical performances.
I had a great time:D

And last Thursday we HTT, Kansai university students and open university in Hong-Kong
students were divided into 3 groups each other and took classes.
In my class, we were divided into small groups and discussed many topics.
Actually at first I was very nervous and lost confidence for myself a little because
other students could speak English much fluently than me!
However, I did my best to talk as much as possible and could make new friends:D
It was a very good experience for me!

In addition, yesterday we ate dinner with Miao-san, who is Chinese, and her friends.:)
We had a very good time, so time passed very quickly.
If I have an opportunity, I wanna talk with them again:D

I think all things that happens in UK will become my good experience(*^^*)

Japanese fairy tales

Hi! Today I'll write about Japanese fairy tales:)
There are many interesting stories in Japan.
Each of them have some lessons for children who read the stories.
So in Japan, mothers often read the stories for their children before they go to bed.
I like Japanese fairy tales very much:D
In addition, in Penny's class, we had an opportunity to think how to use them in teaching.
So I'd like to introduce most interesting sites we can know about them!!

http://web-japan.org/kidsweb/folk/index.html
This site is maybe for kids. However, I think it is easy to understand.
And in this site, there are not only letters but also lovely pictures!
So you can enjoy Japanese fairy tales:)

Please enjoy reading Japanese fairy tales using this site:)
I want many people to know about them more!
