Final presentation

1. Saki : woman's place
              She made a presentation about woman's social place. At work, women tent to be looked down. In addition, once woman quit her job because of childbirth, it's so difficult for her to return the work place. This is the real situation in Japan. In Japan, there are few women cabinet minister. At home, it's believed that housework and childcare is women's work. So women have to work both at outside and inside of the house. But this situation is gradually changing. The number of stay-at-home-dad. Saki talked us about her uncle and aunt.

2. Ayari : Compromise
               From her experience, she sometimes compromised. She lives with her mother, older brother, her grandparents, so she have to take a bath so fast everyday. It's so stressful because she like take a long bath. But she has to compromise for her family member. At the end of her presentation, she told a definition about compromising. If it's OK for yourself, you should compromise for others. But if it is something most important for you, you should not compromise.

              She really love watch, so she made a presentation about watch. Digital watch is easy to see and suit sports. The visual feature inso needle. Analog watch can change ties and is fashionable. The visual feature is it has about two needles. Miho prefer analog watch. In her presentation, she introduced her 3 favorite watch brands. They are so fashionable!

4. Aya : the problem of abandoned cats
            She has cats at home and really love her cats. She is  animal lovers. The reason why she picked up this topic is she often see abandoned cats near her house. and when she searched about abandoned cats, she found some brutal articles. The most common reason why people abandon their cats is they fed up with caring. Aya said it's unbelievable and people should think cats's lives as human's lives.

5. Kenta : Housework
                His parents are both teachers and they are so busy. It means Kenta has to help his family. He did housework from young age. He think housework is not women's work because of his family life. In fact, in his family, his father made breakfast everyday because his father is good at getting up early. It's so nice. As to Kenta, he did washing clothes and washing bathroom. Thanks to this experience, doing housework is not troublesome for him now.

My presentation : I made a presentation about sharing room. In unit 3, two boys who living together in an apartment argue about the setting temperature of air conditioner. I think about the difficulty of room share. In Japan, the number of young people who wants to share house is so smaller than other countries. I think the result comes from a thought that hate quarelling and making trouble with someone. But if someone share room with others, he should set rules in advance. This is my biggest knowledge about sharing room. For this presentation, I prepared some data and tried speak without watching script. It was so hard and I sometimes stuck in words. I thought I had to practice harder...

my strength and weakness

Yuko's presentation : goals for the future
                                  She wants to get suitable job in the future. The suitable job means comfortable
                                  and light work. She think working too much is not good and showed us a graph
                                  of the number of death from overwork in Japan. She won't work like that. She                
                                  also think communication skill is important. to get the skill, she try to have self-
                                  confidence by doing something new.
                             
Taku's presentation : goals for the future
                                 He has 3 goals. First thing is to improve his English skills. Second is to travel
                                 travel alone. And the last is to be a hotel man and Barista. He talked 3 goals in
                                 order. His presentation was so simple that I din't have trouble to understand his
                                 speaking.

Maco's presentation : strength and weakness
                                  She did a lot of lessons when she was a elementary school student. From each
                                  lessons, she got many things. Especially, from her IKEBANA's experience, she
                                  had an interest with Japanese culture. She think her lots of experience are her
                                  strengths. And also she talked about her present life. 1, having interest which
                                  she've never tried. 2, talking with adults 3, cooking dishes
                                 

Maria's presentation : strength and weakness
                                  Her strong point is being able to get calm and keep trying something till she
                                  achieves. Even if when others are  in panic, she can think or stay in clam.
                                  So she properly act habitually.
                                  Her weakness point is being not able to use time effectively. For example, she
                                  doesn't do her homework until the last minutes.

My presentation : strength and weakness
                             I picked my 2 strong points and 2 weak points. my strengths are being optimist and
                             being not nervous in any situation. I think I have strong heart because I don't care
                             small thing. Even if I heard something bad for me, I don't care, so I can live easily.
                             as to being not nervous, it comes from my experiences. For example, I belonged to
                             track and field club in junior high school and I have to run in front of hundreds of
                             people. It was so nervous. But I think it made me strong. In contrast. my weak
                             points is tend to give up and apathy. I act immediately if I think but I stop it very
                             fast. And I am apathy to everything. I like doing nothing. It make me bad. So I
                             want to improve these points.
