2026-06-12 Places & Spaces — Painting a Picture in Words
- What we’ll do: We’ll practice describing the places that matter to us — a favorite café tucked away on a side street, a garden, a childhood kitchen. We’ll play a fast describing game in teams, share our special places with classmates, and try drawing a room from a partner’s description alone.
- Key Phrases: tucked away / overlooking / What strikes you first is… / It’s the kind of place where… / It’s hard to describe, but it’s a bit like…
- What to bring: Just yourself — and think about one place that feels special or calming to you. What makes it different from other places you know?
- See you Friday!
日本語版:
今回のレッスンでは、「場所」を英語で描写する練習をします。お気に入りのカフェ、庭、子どもの頃の台所――自分にとって特別な場所を、聞いている人の頭に絵が浮かぶように伝えてみましょう。チームで楽しむ描写ゲームや、パートナーの説明だけを頼りに部屋の絵を描くアクティビティも用意しています。「自分にとって落ち着く場所はどこか」を考えてきていただけると、より楽しめます。金曜日にお会いできるのを楽しみにしています。
Optional At-Home Activities
- Stand in your favorite room at home for one minute. Try describing it out loud in English — what you see first, what is where, how it feels.
- Find one photo of a place you love (on your phone is fine). Write two or three English sentences describing it, and bring the photo if you like.
