児童養護：28回目の訪問 Foster home: 28th visit

 

先週と今週はひたすら英語の学習支援をした。

担当している児童はこれまでの勉強である程度理解しているはずなのに、

急に最も基本的と思える単語や構文でつまずいてしまう。

 

不登校の時期に初めて習うべき部分がすっぽり抜けてしまっているため、

再度そこまで戻って学習を繰り返すことになってしまった。

 

それでも素直でよく指導にもついてきてくれていると思うけど、

他の児童も不登校やひきこもりといった問題をかかえていて、

学習内容以前に乗り越えなければならない課題も多い。

 

今の時点ではそういう課題への対応策は素人の自分には思いもつかないけど、

まずは目の前の学習支援を着実に進めていくしかなさそうだ。

 

We continued studying English only for thelast week and this week.

The child almost understands it by studyingin the past.

However, he made mistake suddenly aboutvery basic words and sentences.

 

These very essential words and sentenceswere not in his memory because he could not go to school at the beginning ofthe time he should have learn English.

Then we have to go back to study from the beginning.

 

I am thinking this child is still betterthan other child in this foster home.

Other children have more difficult problemas not going to the school.

There are so many difficulties before forthem to study something.

 

I don’t have good idea as the countermeasurefor such difficult subject.

Then I am thinking I have to proceed what Ican do now.

To be continued.

That depends on how you teach English to them. I teach English to junior high school students. Some of them don't go to school, don't like English, are bad at English, and suffer from hikikomori. I don't know how you teach them English. Will you tell me how you usually teach them English? I might give you some good pieces of advice.

Thank you very much for your comment.
I am sorry for late reply because of the trip to Laos at the moment.
I am in charge only for one child who is the junior high school boy.
We sit together and I explain the grammar, meaning of the word, pronunciation, etc.
I visit him every Saturday and we continue studying together.
However, two hours in a week is not enough to catch up the progress of the lecture in the school and sometimes he doesn't go to the school due to the subject of Hikikomori
