Dear blog!
This week in International English we learned about English in Japan. We read three different texts and answered questions about them. The texts were Manga and anime, English in South-East Asia and The triumph of Japanese English. I personally liked the first text best because it to me contained most interesting and new facts.I worked with my classmate, Shirin. We began with reading one text first, and then answered a couple of questions. Personally I like working this way, because I like reading out load and then talking and discussing what we recently read. The theme, English in Japan was very interesting to work with. I actually didn’t know anything about English in Japan therefore it gave me a lot of new knowledge. I for instance learned about how the Japanese Manga and animie have affected the western world. I find it very interesting that people from all ages read them!
To do this assignment we got approximately 2 hours. The way we spent our time was in my eyes pretty good and organized. If I were to do something differently I would have researched on this theme on the internet to get some input from others than only the book.

I think your comment about how you liked to work this way and how you would have researched a little more before reading the book was great. Seems like this was a good way to work for the both of you.
