Teacher's Notebook

The Teacher's Notebook is a guide for using Misaki's Journal in a classroom setting. The guide contains vocabulary, activities, and more.

Thematic vocabulary are words and phrases that relate to the events, holidays, and activities highlighted in each of Misaki's journal entries. Glossed vocabulary defines words and kanji that are above the intermediate low/JLPT N3 level. 

Can-do statements assess what students learn and are exposed to within the journal.
