単語の練習ビンゴ, Novice Low, Japanese 101, Lab 08

Please Note: Many of the activities on the Pathways Project OER Repository were created by upper-division students at Boise State University and serve as a foundation that our community of practice can build upon and refine. While they are polished, we welcome and encourage collaboration from language instructors to help modify grammar, syntax, and content where needed. Kindly contact pathwaysproject@boisestate.edu with any suggestions and we will update the content in a timely manner.  — The Pathways Project

About the Boise State World Languages Resource Center (WLRC) Language Activity Repository

The activities provided by the Boise State World Languages Resource Center (WLRC) serve as foundational activities which can be adapted by any language and scaled up or down on the proficiency scale. Many of these activities offer an English Version that is “language-agnostic” to provide language instructors from around the country a platform to remix these instructional materials, infusing them with their target language and culture! The activities within the Pathways Project OER Repository seek to help students solidify their interpersonal speaking and interpretive skills through task-based situations or communicative activities. These activities should be facilitated in the target language for approximately 90% (or more), per the recommendation of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages.

How to use the WLRC Repository’s Activities:

1. Use the Activity as is:

Before you begin:

  • Most activities are 30 minutes in duration, unless otherwise specified.

The text provided in purple is a suggestion of what you might say to your students in the target language, and may be altered for different levels and age groups. All activities have “NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do” statements, a warm-up, a main activity, and a wrap-up.

Many of the activities include printable cards and other instructional materials such as Google Slideshows. If you would like to make changes to these materials for your classroom, follow the instructions below:

Warm-up

1. Begin by introducing the Can-do statements for today's activity. 

2. Open the Google slideshow and move to the slides with “real-world” Katakana.

3. Have the students practice reading with a partner. 

ペアになって下さい。ペアでカタカナを読んで下さい。

On some slides, the lab assistant will be able to click to reveal the “English” so that they can check their reading! 

Main Activity

1. Give each student a bingo card.

2. Draw the first bingo word to model what the other students will have to do.

例えば:最初の言葉は「the word you draw」です。

  次は「another word you draw」です。

3. Now that you’ve modeled what the “caller” will do, ask for a volunteer.

ボランティアはいますか?

4. Have that volunteer call until one of their peers gets their first bingo.

5. After the first bingo is called, pick the next “caller.”

もう一人ボランティアはいますか? 

6. There are two options now:

Option 1: Keep playing with the same cards and let others get bingo. You can also add news rules, such as playing until people blackout their cards.

Option 2: Have the students clear their cards. With every new caller, restart with a new game.

7. At any point, you can switch between these two options, depending on what you think your students need.

Wrap-up

Ask the students if they have any questions.

何か質問はありますか?

End of lab:

  • Read can-do statements and have students evaluate their confidence with cards 
  • Encourage students to be honest in their self evaluation
  • Pay attention, and try to use feedback for future labs!
