The Adventures in Japanese Level 1 Teacher’s Handbook contains teacher resources to accompany the Level 1 Textbook. Included are assessment forms, sample quizzes, tests, and review exams, language lab scripts and answer keys, and approximately 100 pages of illustrations that can be photocopied to create overhead projector transparencies for classroom games, drills, flashcards, and activities. Widely adopted at junior and senior high schools across the U.S. because of its effectiveness, Adventures in Japanese is a user-friendly but comprehensive course that incorporates textbooks, student workbooks, kana workbooks and flashcards, teacher’s handbooks and audio CDs for a complete and enjoyable introduction to the Japanese language. The title of the series implies fun, and the books’ lively illustrations and vivid explanations make language learning enjoyable for students. Speaking, listening, reading and writing are equally stressed throughout, and Cultural Notes make important points about Japanese culture and language use. A Fun Corner--with various culturally related activities from making onigiri (riceballs) to learning Japanese songs--increases the sense of exploration and adventure, and a Japanese Culture Corner feature provides cultural topics for students to explore in depth and compare with their own culture.
