Freshman English Reading A: Greetings gestures・挨拶のジェスチャー

Hello!

How are you? Today, let's look at greetings (挨拶) in a different way - gestures for greetings.

Look at the picture above. It shows some different greetings that people say in different languages. But how do people show what they feel when they meet people for the first time?

Activity

Look at these pictures below. They show different gestures for greetings in different cultures. Look at these and talk about what people in which cultures would do when greeting people.

例：This first one is easy! This is what people in Japan would do.

Now try these! What countries or cultures would people make these greetings gestures in? Quiz each other on these!

Have fun guessing with these! See you next time!

Writing English 1A: Origins of cats & dogs・猫と犬の起源

Hello!

How are you? Today I have two short videos for you that I hope you find interesting - one is about the origins (起源) of cats, and the other is about the origins of dogs.

Both videos show where these animals came from and how they became domesticated (馴れた).

Activity/homework

Watch these short videos. Watch each one as many times as you want or need. The first is about where cats came from and how they spread around the world. The second is about dogs, and where they came from and how they also spread around the world.

There are no questions about the videos that you have to report to the class. They are to give you some background about where cats and dogs came from, how they both first came into contact with humans. From there, the videos show how humans found them to be useful, and also to be good as pets.

But - make notes about the videos, because if you do any writing about cats or dogs, the information you'll see in the videos may be very useful for you!

First video - about cats:

Second video - about dogs:

Hope these are very interesting for you!

See you next time!
