The conversation will BEGIN with your 4区和文 Conversation Starters. Each member of the group WRITES their own sentence about the assigned video story ... NO discussion（勝手に　ばらばらの和文を　出す）. AFTER the sentences have been written, it is time to DISCUSS them and DECIDE which one will GENERATE the best (longest, most interesting) conversation.

PUT「O」in front of the best sentence and「X」in front of the others. The sentence with the「O」is the first sentence in your group's conversation ... your Conversation Starter. Look at each 4 区和文 . Say each 区 in English（最初 , 最後 , 逆方向）.

AFTER each student SAYS their sentence out loud, they can TYPE the English sentence into the Chat Box. Like the Bounce Patrol, all students repeat each sentence over and over. REPEAT it faster ... with feeling ... again ... while IMAGINING the meaning. Repeat without looking at the Japanese sentence ... CONCENTRATING only on the image and the feeling of what they are saying. Let's TRY it with these Conversation Starters (above).

Now you CONTINUE the conversation for as long as you can ... ADDING information in written Japanese sentences ... NO discussion（勝手に　関係が　深い　和文を　出す）. After each Japanese sentence, the student who WROTE it SAYS it in English. Everyone can READ the Japanese sentence. Everyone in the group KNOWS what the student WANTS to SAY. EVERYONE can HELP by PROVIDING the English words that are necessary to EXPRESS the idea. The entire group HELPS the person who is SPEAKING English.

Everyone LISTENS carefully to the speaker ... and they REPEAT ... NO discussion in Japanese. It's English Only Time. If anyone SUSPECTS that there is a mistake OR a better way (a sentence which is easier to say, easier to understand) then instead of repeating they SHOUT OUT their improved sentence OR noun phrase.

The student who CAME UP with the sentence in the first place BECOMES the (temporary) leader. That student will, hopefully, NOTICE the difference. They will THINK about the change and ... the final decision BELONGS to them. When this is FINISHED someone else WRITES the next Japanese sentence. When nobody in the group can THINK of anything else to ADD to the conversation, DRAW a horizontal line and START OVER with new Conversation Starters (one per student).

P. D. S. Cycle

Today's Plan for the Group Work is exactly the same as the plans for Week 4. We DO NOT WANT to REPEAT any of the mistakes that we MADE back then. Let's USE the PDS（改善する）Cycle: PLAN（計画）, DO（実行）, and SEE what HAPPENS（評価）to IMPROVE our understanding of today's patterns and practice plan. Let's LOOK at the Group Work for Week 4. You've HAD a full week to REVIEW and CORRECT any mistakes in the Group Report. LET'S CHECK them out now.
