Dear ESS members,

I'm in charge of the latter practice on February 22nd.
I'd like to send you the agenda of the day.

Genre: word game
Title: two Truths and a Lie
Procedure: Everyone writes 3 sentences about yourselves.

Two sentences are Truth and one sentence is Lie.
The first person in a group read the 3 sentences to other members.
Then, discuss together and tell the reader which sentence is a Lie.

e.g. ・My daughter is a teacher.
・I have been to Vietnam before.
・"Bonsai" is one of my hobbies.

Qs, ・What subject does your daughter teach?
・What did you go to Vietnam for?
・Why do you think "Bonsai" is so popular among young people overseas?

I hope that you will get to know about ESS members through this practice.
Let's enjoy it!

Sincerely,

R.Tanaka

Dear Kyoto NHK ESS members,

This is Takeshi Hayashi. Hello,it is being warm gradually isn't it?
It has been one month and one year since I started coming to ＥＳＳ class.I feel that I need more English writing. And I'm in charge of the latter half practice on Mar. 8.
I'd like to send you the introduction of my practice.
I have lived in Nagaokakyo city for twelve years. I enjoy the view of the nishiyama mountains.I also like Buratamori that is TV program about landscape.
One day, I have two questions ,what stones are filled the mountains and how to be created.
I am going to try to write these things with my small English and insufficient geologic knowledge.And I will show you some sample stones.So this is also one of Oshi Activities.
Group mission,“Please check my grammatical mistakes and spelling mistakes of my letter“.

Regards
Takeshi Hayashi
