セミナーの感想を書いてください
＊とてもたのしかったです (^^)
＊学校で習わなかったことが習えて良かった
＊英語だったのでちょっと分からないこともあったが最後は分かった
＊はじめて習う単語もあったけど、それを言えた時にたっせい感があった
＊初めてのセミナーで６日間友達とがんばれて楽しかったです
＊２回目でもきんちょうしていましたが、楽しくできました。
＊発音が上手になれてよかった
＊発音が上手くなれて良かった
＊最初はむずかしくてよく分からなかったけれども、たく山練習したら、意味が分かって楽しかったです。セミナーに行ってから、発音が良くなったと家族に言われたので、行って良かったと思いました。
＊歌がむつかしかった（＾＾）
------------------------
う～ん。小学５年生が「たっせい感があった」と書いてくれると、ちょっと感動・感激しますね。
LとRは特に念入りに、なんどもなんども直しました。
BとVにもこだわりましたよ。男子にはBをVと言うたびに、上唇と下唇をつかんでとじてやったし、女子にも、指で口唇をはさむようなしぐさをしてあげました。なんども、なんども、なんども。最初は区別が怪しかった子どもたちも５日目くらいにはほとんど意識すればできるレベルにはなってくれました。
英語のリズムにもこだわりましたよ。リズムに合わせて左右にステップを踏ませたり、ボックスステップをさせたり、ボールをつかせたり、ジャンプさせたりして、口と身体がシンクロしないと Okay は基本的には出しませんでした。
頑張って上達したあの子たちを誇りに思います。
