R7 Funglish

At the Funglish Cafe, the 2nd graders were excited to play the Time Bomb Game with the theme fruits! Everyone sat in a big circle with a soft, squishy stuffed toy. This toy was the “bomb”! When the timer started, the students passed the toy around and said a fruit word like “apple,” “banana,” or “cherry.” They tried to pass it quickly before the timer stopped. Everyone laughed and had fun while waiting to see who would be holding the toy when… BOOM! The timer went off! The student holding the toy had to move to another team. It was a fun and silly way to learn fruit words and make new friends!  

5年生の授業では”トークショーをしよう！”というテーマで班ごとに番組を企画してくれました。コミュニケーションポイントに気を付けながら誕生日や欲しい物についてインタビューが出来ました。発表の時に緊張して話せないお友達の手助けをしてくれる児童がたくさんいて感動しました。ありがとう！！

The 5th graders had the chance to shine with their talk show presentations about their birthdays. Teachers were impressed by the effort the students put into using the communications points they learned and saying the right answers on the questions of the hosts. Some of the students were especially kind and supportive, helping classmates who felt shy or needed a bit of assistance during the talk show. We are looking forward to seeing these bright students shine more in their next presentations. 

6/1（日）富岡市国際交流まつりでは、富小生達がフィリピンのブースでボランティアをしてくれました。ALTの先生たちはとても助かっていました。Thank you!!

ブースに来てくれたお客さんに、外国語の授業で学習したフレーズを使って丁寧に説明をしてくれました。自ら英語を話そうとする姿が素晴らしかったです。

毎週金曜日の給食の時間にALTの先生達が英語放送をしています。今週からスペシャルweekということで放送ブースに校長先生が来てくれました。サプライズだったので教室から驚きの声があがっていました。

毎週金曜日お昼休みに行っているファングリッシュカフェの様子です。Welcome to the Color Mat Race! In this super fun game, kids sit on red, green, white, and yellow mats and slide across the floor like racers! The goal is to reach the other side and grab each color. But here’s the fun part — they can only move by sitting on their mat and pushing with their hands or feet. No standing allowed! Then, race back and pass the mat to the next friend. Everyone gets a turn. The team that collects all the colors the fastest is the winner!  Ready, set, slide!

 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!  

お昼休みのファングリッシュカフェの様子です。色んな学年が参加してイン＆アウトゲームを楽しみました♪

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.  

天気の学習をしました。お天気カードを交換している様子です

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.
