Today, we studied how to use 「し」 to give reasons and explain things in Japanese. For example, we practiced sentences such as 「ドラえもんはかわいいし、秘密道具があるし、友達になりたいです。」.
You did a great job using the plain form in your sentences. I was impressed with how well you were able to make explanations and give reasons in Japanese.
I was also excited to hear that you are planning to visit Hong Kong this winter! Traveling is fun, and planning a trip can be just as exciting as the trip itself. I would love to hear more about your travel plans in future lessons.
Thank you again for coming to class today. See you next time!

Thank you for coming to the lesson. You practiced creating follow-up sentences using “~shinakereba narimasen” based on given reasons. After that, you freely thought about what a high school girl needed to do while looking at an illustration. We also had a casual conversation about Korean food during the lesson.
