Japanese Village Session 1-5 throwback
A trip down memory lane
As the semester reaches its half-way mark, let’s have a look back at the first half of Japanese Village (JV) ~
JV Session 1: Introduction
The local students did their self-introductions in Japanese while the Japanese students did theirs in English.
They then played Takenoko Nyokki where instead of shouting the next number, you must shout out the name of a person in your group followed by “nyokki”.
“初めまして、私は… ” Self-introduction in Japanese
“たけのこたけのこニョッキッキ” Playing Takenoko Nyokki to remember each others’ name
A fun first session~
JV Session 2: Hobbies
The students had to draw on paper what their hobby is and did group sharing/discussion of their hobbies.
They also played a game where each person can only draw 1 line at a time and form a picture story for the last person to guess the hobby drawn.
“This is the drawing of my hobby”
“私の趣味は…” Introducing your hobby in Japanese
JV Session 3: Food
We set up a Kahoot Trivia Quiz on Japanese Food to the test the students’ knowledge on Japanese cuisine.
Introducing different types of food from Japan and popular food in Singapore.
The students then had group sharing/discussions on their favourite and most disliked food.
