Hi, everyone. This is Octane announcing the 2nd practice on October 28.
Are you ready to come on the day to earnestly enjoy and learn English and some of the United Nation’s activity? I promise you have an electrified experience within the 60 min of practice together with me.
Following you will see a part of the content in the practice on the day. I hope to see you at the temple.
できれば、前もって少しは準備して調べといてね、そしたら当日は楽しいし。
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
In 2015, seventeen SDGs goals are proposed by the UN as the obligation of all member nations to be achieved before 2030.
Purposes of the goals are briefly described in Sheet 1, but not in the right order to the original one. In the sheet they are arbitrarily numbered by alphabets A‾Q.
In Sheet 2, although incapable to show today in this RoundTable, to my regret, each of the seventeen goals has its own logo mark designed by the UN to symbolize specific activities.
PRACTICE:
Procedure 1. Read Sheet 1 to study 1) what are serious world problems, 2) what is the purpose of UN’s SDGs: first by each and then in the group.
Procedure 2. Take a deep look at Sheet 2 and connect each logo with one of the descriptions in Sheet 1 (group work). If needed in advance, you can find the logos by the internet.
Procedure 3. Presentation time for opinions and impressions for SDGs.
