Textbook - The Given
Description
Hello Cafetalk Community!
I want to tell you about this fun reading lesson! If you would like, I think it would be a pleasant experience for you to read "Lois Lowry's" groundbreaking book. You will be improving your English at the same time! The Giver was on the Bestseller List for an extended period of time and has won the 1994 Newberry Award.

[How the lesson works:]
I am not making this lesson a Value Pack (including a set number of lessons) because it is impossible for me to guess how long it will take each student to read 192 pages. As a result, I decided to divide the lesson up into 50-minute sessions. You can drop in to read a few chapters whenever you want and wait on the edge of your seat until the next time.
I will ask you questions about the chapter after you read each chapter to check your reading comprehension. This book is not a difficult read with reasonably easy vocabulary. Anyone who can read English will be able to understand the story.
[Book:] I will provide the book in pdf form, so you don't have to buy it!

[Speaking of the story, Amazon.com has this to say about the book:]
The Giver, the 1994 Newbery Medal winner, has become one of the most influential novels of our time. The haunting story centers on twelve-year-old Jonas, who lives in a seemingly ideal, if colorless, the world of conformity and contentment. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver of Memory does he begin to understand the dark, complex secrets behind his fragile community. Lois Lowry has written three companion novels to The Giver, including Gathering Blue, Messenger, and Son.

洋書を一冊読みとおしたのは初めてです。一人だと途中で諦めてたかもしれません。音読することであやふやな発音や語彙をその場で確認できました。Ayame先生が要所要所でストーリーについて質問してくれるので、内容も理解しながら進めることができました。Ayame先生の優しい雰囲気が心地よく、物語がとても面白か… moreFeb 28, 2022 -

音読することで、発音や文法で「つっかかる」部分を確認しながら読み進められます。意味の難しい単語も、先生のフォローのおかげで「なるほど、そういう意味か!」と文章全体を味わいながら、そして物語を楽しみながら勉強できています。最後に内容に関する質問をしてもらえるので、内容理解と会話練習にもなり、とても充実… moreDec 2, 2021 -

名作『The Giver』の原作を読める!洋書を独りで読み通す自信がなかったんですが、先生と一緒なら続けられそうです。音読を聞いてもらって、発音や分からない単語についてその場で教えてもらえるのと、内容について質問に答えることで要約する練習になります。先生は穏やかでとても優しく、リラックスして受講する… moreNov 19, 2021
