Year 10 Japanese

Overview

The Year 10 Japanese Course aims to further develop and expand student's previous knowledge of Japanese. Students will explore situations and events associated with the main themes of Teenagers and the Local Neighbourhood.

Over the year, students expand their language skills to include themes such as fashion trends, festivals and celebrations, leisure activities, part time work and their local community. Students, now well versed in hiragana and katakana, will develop their kanji reading and writing skills.

Highlights of Year 10 typically include festivals, examining the influence of Japan in our local community, restaurant outings and many short skits around shopping.

Topics

  • The Individual - Daily Routines, Seasons, Friends
  • Japanese Speaking Communities - Traveling in Japan, Shopping, Entertaining, Seasons, Staying in a Japanese Home
  • The Changing World - Teenagers, Fashions and Trends

Assessments

The student's achievements are assessed generally at the end of the unit of work. There is at least one assessment per skill each term. These assessments may vary in time but usually will take up to a lesson (50 minutes) to complete. Assessments are carried out according to the Outcomes below.
