Actual report:
1. 10:20-10:40 Practice role play at a supermarket with a volunteer. (Goal #2)
2. 10:40-10:50-Practice the same role play with so and so san. (Goal #2)
3. 10:50-11:00 Identify kanji from nearby station using dictionary (Goal #1)
4. 11:00-11:20 Study the vocabulary for weather forecast and listen to the actual recording and write down information (Goal #3)

Evaluation of each activity:
1. Since a volunteer was available immediately I started out with this activity. She has suggestions of changing the items, and also when I had troubles with wrong items. I thought this was very helpful.

2. Since so and so san was waiting for a turn for a similar activity, I suggested to do the same role-play with him. We needed to build vocabulary on the items we buy in the supermarket. I would like to build up food vocabulary.

3. Kanji dictionary was a little hard to use, but I think it is worth getting used to it. Ann Lynn helped me greatly. Took me 10 minutes to find 8 characters!

4.The recording is really fast, and I can't catch anything. Maybe I will look up some English words in the dictionary and just try to listen to those words first. Or just numbers. Later I will try to understand the information better.

Proposed plan for the next session.
1. 10:20-10:35 Identify kanji from nearby supermarket using dictionary (Goal #2)
2. 10:35-10:50 Pick up weather vocabulary from a newspaper. (Goal #3)
3. 10:50-11:10 Listen to the actual recording and write down information (Goal #3)
4. 11:10-11:20 Draft a letter of thank-you to host family (Goal #4)
