 Fun times at the FunGlish Café!　Today, we played the “Don’t Touch the Shape!” game.We kicked things off with a quick shape review, then jumped straight into the action. The rule? Don’t touch the shape, the teacher says!　Next up: colors!  Same game, new twist — don’t touch the color that’s called out! 　Then came the ultimate test: the combo round! Students had to stay sharp and avoid touching a specific color and shape — like the orange circle or the black square. The kids had so much fun learning and playing — we love turning English practice into exciting games! 

Today, we played the "In, Out, Left, Right" game, and the kids were jumping out with joy as they learned new directional words like in, out, left, and right. Their excitement was contagious as they moved around, laughing and following instructions with growing confidence. It was amazing to see how quickly they picked up the new vocabulary through play. To celebrate their efforts, each child received a cute sticker at the end—a small reward for a big day of learning and fun!

The 4th graders participated in an exciting card-collecting game activity that began with a round of janken (rock-scissors- paper). The winner of the game had the opportunity to ask, "How’s the weather?" while the loser responded with an answer and was required to give up one of their collected cards. The goal was to collect as many cards as possible by the end of the game, with the player who had the most cards at the finish being declared the winner. This fun and engaging game allowed the students to practice their social and language skills while learning about the weather playfully and competitively.

As part of the Funglish Power Friday Program, the Funglish room started its Funglish Cafe Time today. To motivate and encourage students to participate, they received their Hero Quest card to collect stamps and get stickers by playing Funglish games. Today, we played Daruma-san ga Koronda using weather gestures. The game helped the students in practicing "How's the weather?" and saying "It's ~. The Funglish Team is preparing more fun and educational games for the students. 

５年生は初めてのプレゼンテーション活動を行いました。

The 5th grade students challenged themselves by introducing themselves in English and talking about the things they like.It was their first time presenting in front of their classmates during English class, and the teachers were very impressed. Everyone did their best and followed the communication tips like making eye contact, smiling, speaking clearly and loudly, and using gestures. The students showed that they are ready for bigger English challenges.

To introduce the different feelings, the English teachers used a song and teach the 2nd graders gestures and facial expressions students can use when expressing their feelings. They had fun with the Alligator Game which challenged their listening skills and helped them practice speaking feelings in English. After enjoying the game, students practiced their writing skills through a simple worksheet.

3rd graders learned saying different feelings in English through a song and Pass the Ball game. What made the students get more excited is that they have to use gestures and facial expressions once the music stops. Despite their excitement, 3rd graders made sure to follow rules from the teachers.
