Thank you for joining the lesson today, even though it was another very hot day. I was truly happy to see you and to see that you were doing well. Today, we continued with Lesson 3 and checked the vocabulary for giving a reason. You practiced making sentences and speaking using those words. The dictionary form that appeared in the textbook will be studied in detail in Intermediate 2, but thank you for remembering it. And in Japanese, loanwords are written in katakana — it was wonderful that you took notes on that. You were also able to speak smoothly, even with long sentences. It was truly impressive. Great work today. In our next lesson, let’s read the conversation in the textbook, and then begin Intermission 1. Have a wonderful week!
