Hello everyone! 

It's Funglish Day again today and we had another activity! Today, we played Jenga. 

If you aren't familiar with Jenga, it is a game where each person takes one block at a time and stacks it on top. The person to knock over the tower is the loser! But, since it is Funglish Day, we added questions on the bottom of some of the blocks for the students to anser is they happen to pull them. It was fun to see the students enjoying a new game and having fun together! 

Stay tuned for more updates on our Funglish classes and our special activities on Thursdays! 

Have a great day and stay warm

みなさん！

今日もFunglish Dayがやってきましたが、またアクティビティを行いました!今日はジェンガで遊んでみました。

ジェンガに馴染みがない方のために説明すると、ジェンガは一人一人が一度に1つのブロックを取り、それを上に積み重ねるゲームです。塔を倒す人が負け!しかし、Funglish Dayということで、一部のブロックの底に質問を追加し、生徒たちがたまたま引っ張ってしまうのではないかと考えています。生徒たちが新しいゲームを楽しんで、一緒に楽しんでいるのを見るのは楽しかったです!

Funglishクラスや木曜日のスペシャルアクティビティの最新情報にご期待ください!

素晴らしい一日を過ごし、暖かく過ごせます

Hello everyone! 

Hope you are doing well. This week for our Funglish activity, we played a game well known here in Gunma. We played Jomo Karuta, this is a game that is traditionally played by children on New Year. 

Jomo Karuta is a card slapping game all about Gunma, but since it was Fuglish day, we played the English version! Our 3rd years have been playing this game every week, so we thought that it would be a fun idea to let all the students have the opportunity to play and have fun! 

Thank you to everyone who joined us! Hope to see you next week for our next event! 

Hello everyone! 

Today is Funglish Day again and for today's activity, we played a New Years game! 

This New Years game is called cup and ball and for this game you have cups taped to the end of the table and from the other side of the table you need to roll the ball into the cup. But, since today is Funglish Day, if you get the ball into the cup I ask you a question in English! 

The students had a lot of fun playing and scoring, as well as, answering English questions. We hope to see eveyone join us next week for our next activity! 

Have a great day

Hello everyone! 

I hope you are doing well. We are back from our winter vacations and from what I have heard from the students, they were happy to have a little bit of a break! 

For christmas, the students got presents from their families and ate various christmas cakes and foods. 

And for New Year they ate Ozoni soup, soba and got otoshidama from their families! 

As for me, I went back home to Guam for my vaction and had a great time spending the holidays on my island with my family and friends.

Let's wish the students well on thier studies this semester as well and keep cheering them on! The 3rd years are currenly in the process of taking their high school entrance exams so they are extra nervous, wish them good luck! 

Happy New Year everybody! 

Hello everyone! 

Yesterday was our last ENG ( English, Now, Go!)  activity before the winter holiday! 

We played a round of speed UNO, which made the game more challending and fast as I only gave them 2 seconds to think and put down a card! I was also able to show some of the students some tricks to play in order to win the game faster! 

If you have never played UNO, it is a color and number matching game essentially, along with some curve balls along the way. For example, when you have one card left, you call out "UNO" and but then the next player can put down an add 2 card and you no longer have UNO! 

We are very thanful for all the help and participation during our Funglish Day activities and can't wait to start them up again next year! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone!
