Year 10 Japanese
Welcome to year 10 Japanese at EGGS!
Japan is known for its cultural influence on the world. From food, to anime and manga, to traditional clothing and decoration, Japan’s culture is unique and beautiful. Speaking Japanese opens the door to experiencing this new world of culture, history and tradition.
As NZ’s 4th largest trading partner, there are many opportunities for Kiwis to use Japanese both in Japan and at home.
In this course, you will study further basics of Japanese language. You will expand what you can say through learning new vocabulary and grammar, and develop your ability in listening, speaking, reading and writing. The course will have a personal focus, where we develop skills to talk about ourselves. You will learn to communicate information, ideas, and opinions, covering topics such as:
- Introducing and describing yourself
- Houses and homes
- Food
- School in Japan
