Tomilish Time : Let's describe Sendai specialities!
Last week in Tomilish Time we had a special guest. Ms. Satsuki Okura from Tottori Prefecture visited our school for a week to watch our English classes. We used Tomilish Time in order to tell her more about Sendai and learn more about Tottori, too.
We started with our usual greeting questions about the day, date and weather.
"How is the weather today?"
"It's sunny!"
Then we all chanted the starting words together.
"Let's enjoy..."
"...Tomilish Time!"
Ms. Satsuki told us that she has never visited Sendai before.
"It's my first time!"
Ms. Keiko and Ms. Emily introduced some of the famous foods from Sendai.
"We have gyutan, sasakama and oysters."
Next, Ms. Satsuki gave a quiz about famous foods from Tottori.
"It's spicy. It's crispy. Carrots and potatoes."
"It's Tottori curry!"
We gave the students 1 minute to talk in groups about what the teachers had talked about.
"I heard the words `fresh` and `fruit`"
"I hear the word `pears`. I think Ms. Satsuki talked about pears in Tottori."
Ms. Satsuki told us that she didn't know what souvenirs to buy so the other teachers introduced some ideas using adjectives.
"How about Haginotsuki?"
"What's that?"
"It's round. It's sweet. It's soft."
"Oh, nice!"
Next, we practiced the adjectives that the teachers had used.
"It's fresh!"
The students practiced the pronunciations in their classrooms with gestures.
"It's crispy."
"It's sweet."
After, practicing it was time to say goodbye.
"Have a nice day!"
Thank you Ms. Satsuki for taking part in Tomilish Time!
