In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Recognize and read basic Japanese vocabulary terms in script alongside their romanized pronunciation
Recall the English meaning of everyday Japanese greeting phrases (excuse me, good morning, thank you, you're welcome)
Count from 0 to 40 in Japanese using the romanized number readings

Teaching tips

Introduce the two greeting-phrase pages (3 and 6) together, since both cover related courtesy phrases.
Use the two numbers pages (2 and 5) as a pair, since page 5 continues directly from page 2's 0-10 set into 11-40.
Before displaying or printing any poster, check the final file for the visible production filename/date stamp printed on every content page — it needs to be cropped out before use with students.

Skills covered

Japanese vocabulary recognition — students match Japanese terms to their English meaning across six topic areas (numbers, greetings, colors, body parts, months).
Script-to-romanization connection — each poster pairs Japanese script with its romanized reading, supporting pronunciation practice.
