2023年の抱負
2023年になって早くも10日が過ぎました。みなさん、いかがお過ごしですか。
私は、今週から日本語学校での仕事も始まり、ちょっと忙しくなってきました。
学校では2クラス　週４つの授業を受け持ちます。2つのクラスの内、一つは前の学期も受け持ったクラスですが、もう一つは初めて受け持つクラスです。初めての授業は、内容に関わらず　緊張しました。早く、学生の顔と名前を覚えたいと思います。

ところで、みなさんは2023年をどんな年にしようと思っていますか。
私は、まず　「健康」！このコロナの3年間、在宅ワークをしていると、運動量がめっきり減って、どんどん大きくなってしまいました。10月に受けた健康診査の結果を見ても、痩せなくてはいけないことは明らかです。だから、月並みな目標ではありますが、
「ダイエット！マイナス15キロ」が今年の最優先事項です。
次に、「仕事」と「プライベート」の充実！仕事では、働くことを楽しみたいと思います。　日本語を教えることは、意外に難しいです。苦労もあります。でも、それ以上に様々な国の人たちと話すことは楽しいです。日本語を学習している人たちのお役に立てるように今年はもっとスキルアップしていきたいです。
「プライベート」では、今年は久しぶりに海外に旅行したいと思っています。ドイツに住んでいる友人が、遊びにおいで～と言ってくれているので、計画を立てるつもりです。
でも、ドイツ語を全然知らないので、旅行で使える簡単なことばを勉強しようと思います。私の2023年の目標としたいことは以上です。
みなさんの2023年が充実したいい年になることを願っています。

2023新年の抱負"New Year's Resolution2023"

In this episode we're going to listen to a monologue about her daily routine. Let's start now.
最近特别特别忙。一般我早上七点就醒了。躺一会儿之后，大概到七点二十吧，我就得起床。起来之后第一件事情，先喂猫，然后稍微把家里打扫一下。八点之前，我肯定就吃完饭了。然后我一般会看半小时书。我很喜欢看书，中文的英文的都会看。我一般九点去上班，中午有两个小时休息时间。下午五点下班，回家之后我可能会去健身房，运动一个小时左右，然后回家休息或者放松。

Streetwise English

SWE 77 ☠️ Your Death Date

Lucas goes to school every day of the week. He has many subjects to go to each school day: English, art, science, mathematics, gym, and history. His mother packs a big backpack full of books and lunch for Lucas.

His first class is English, and he likes that teacher very much. His English teacher says that he is a good pupil, which Lucas knows means that she thinks he is a good student.

His next class is art. He draws on paper with crayons and pencils and sometimes uses a ruler. Lucas likes art. It is his favorite class.

His third class is science. This class is very hard for Lucas to figure out, but he gets to work with his classmates a lot, which he likes to do. His friend, Kyle, works with Lucas in science class, and they have fun.

Then Lucas gets his break for lunch. He sits with Kyle while he eats. The principal, or the headmaster as some call him, likes to walk around and talk to students during lunch to check that they are all behaving.

The next class is mathematics, which most of the students just call math. Kyle has trouble getting a good grade in mathematics, but the teacher is very nice and helpful.

His fourth class is gym. It is just exercising.

History is his last class of the day. Lucas has a hard time staying awake. Many lessons are boring, and he is very tired after doing gym.

Which classes were your favorite? :)

Let's continue with reading & comprehension tomorrow.
