Strange texts for learning English

In Japan had a problem with studying English likes Thailand that is why I chose this article. The main problem is that current textbooks treat English.

In this article, Japan has a poor English textbook and poor pronunciation because the alphabet song was sung incorrectly. Moreover, most elementary teachers are not fluent in English. If Japan wants to raise its English comprehension scores, I think it should choose getting books written by native-speaking English teacher who have strong grasp of correct vocabulary, expressions and grammar.

In my point of view, I think both Thailand and Japan should improve academic English in high school. In Thailand (countryside) is hard to access to the source of information that mean the government should support the information by sending a lot of book to undeveloped area. It can help a lot of student to develop their English skills.

Panel calls for smaller class sizes

I have a chance to read an article about education. I chose this article because when I was studying at Saint Gabriel’s college in Thailand. My class consisted of 60 students. It’s too many students in the small room. I would like Thailand to have this legal about limited class size.

In this article, a committee of the educational ministry’s Central Council for Education has planned to reduce the class size at primary and middle school from 45 to 35 and proposed raising the salaries of the teacher. Moreover, the committee did not specify the maximum number of students per class in the proposal but it should be 35 for primary and middle school and 30 for the early grades of primary school. More than 40,000 teachers agree with this proposed.

In my point of view, this proposed is a good idea because too many students in one class are declining academic abilities. So, I thinks it’s a good idea to have this legal in Thailand.

I chose this article because it's about the junior high-school student. I have seen the high school student while playing with friends.They play boxing or some kinds of fighting that related to heavy playing. They should be careful while playing with others.

A Junior boy at Japan died in hospital on July 6 from a brain bruised. He had sustained obviously during Judo practice.

A 12 years old, first-year student at Kannami Junior High School in the Shizuoka Prefecture town of Kannami, reportedly collapsed while take part in Judo Club on June 27.Now police are questioning school about the details of the practice.

According to the investigator. He collapsed while practicing "Ukemi" (Judo falling techniques) with five friends. He reportedly fell on his stomach when he was waiting for his turn.

Ogawa had no judo experience before until he entered junior high school in April.

Mitsuyasu Sekimoto, a top official of the Kannami Municipal Board of Education said "I am sure the coach was instructing the students with utmost care, and it is extremely unfortunate that this sort of thing has happened,"

In my point of view, School should take the utmost care of the student while practicing or playing at the risk techniques. They should should a beginner level for student that don't have a judo experinces before.

I have a chance to read the sport news in the newspaper and I found this article that is interesting because it's about World cup and it's a good comparison between North Korean Team that loose and send back to work in mine but Japan receives warm welcome of thoundsands fans.

Japan's Football team returned home on Thursday after exceeded expectations at worldcup. Thoudsands of fans waved flags that means Thankyou to the Football player. at Kansai International Airport. Japan beated Cameroon and Denmark but defeated by Paraguay in the round of 16 on Tuesday.

Spain wins first-ever World Cup title

Spain's place among world football's all-time greatest teams was assured Sunday when Andres Iniesta scored with four minutes of extra time remaining to beat the Netherlands 1-0 and clinch his country's first World Cup.
With the teams facing a penalty shootout after an often ill-tempered game of few clear chances, Iniesta collected a sliding pass into the area from substitute Cesc Fabregas and smashed the ball across goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg and in at the far post.
Spain coach Vicente del Bosque said that "It was a very difficult game but we have some fantastic players who knew how to respond to the problems"

In my point of view, Spain have a fantastic player. It was a combination of factors, from Spain's effective substitutions to Iker Casillas facing down Arjen Robben to Holland's too-physical approach.
