⏱️ 50-minute lesson plan

  1. 1. Warm-up (5 min)

    Check last homework. Ask the warm-up questions to relax.

    • What did you buy recently?
    • Do you like shopping online or in stores?
  2. 2. Input (10 min)

    Introduce the key phrases one by one. The student repeats each 3 times; check meaning (short Japanese is OK).

  3. 3. Practice (15 min)

    Run the unit's practice activity. Maximize student talking time.

    Show clothing pictures; the student describes color, size and price, then asks you for another one.

  4. 4. Role-play (10 min)

    Tutor plays the other person. Praise when the key phrases are used; fix only 2 things afterwards.

    🎭 The tutor is a shop clerk; the student buys a jacket (wrong size first, then the right one).

  5. 5. Free talk (5 min)

    Use the discussion questions for free conversation.

    • What's the best thing you've ever bought?
    • Do you compare prices?
    • Where do you like to shop?
  6. 6. Wrap-up (5 min)

    Review today's phrases and give the homework. Write the lesson note right after.

    📌 Write a shop conversation and read it out loudお店での会話を書いて、声に出して読む
