Choosing a Sports Kurabu

The teacher chooses four students to play the role of an information officer at each sports club. (More advanced students may be chosen for this role.) Students form pairs. Each student receives a copy of the information sheet.

Information sheet

スポーツクラブにはいろう
There are four sports clubs in your area, and you need to decide which club you will join. You and your partner each go to two clubs, ask some questions and share the information. Then discuss with your partner which club you would like to join.

Try to speak in Japanese by using these expressions:

いいですね。 that’s good 　 おもしろい。 that’s interesting
だめです。 that’s no good 　 おもしろくない。 that’s not interesting

Each student asks these questions at each club.
