Blogging Task 8: Giving advice to Prospective Teachers or ALTs

In your blogs, please write a post for people who do not know Japanese schools but will be working in a Junior High School. The people who you are writing to can either be a teacher trainee (kyouiku jisshuusei), an ALT or any other kind of group you can think of!
In your post, based on Mr. M's lecture and your own experience as a student or teacher, give your readers information you think they will need to be a successful teacher in a Japanese Junior High School.
Last year in my own blog, I wrote a message to ALTs based on Mr. M's lecture and my own experience. Please have a look at the post and you can write our post in a similar style if you wish.

The due date is Wednesday, July 6, 12:23AM.

Task 7: Comment on our "Grammar" Teacher's Blogs

Today, June 14, we participated in three mini grammar lessons. Each teacher will write a reflection of their lesson on their blogs by June, 18 7PM. Please write a comment on each of the blogs of the teachers. When you write a comment, please consider the following: Did the teachers successfully teach the form, meaning and use of their target structures? What were the strong points and weak points of their lessons. The blogs of the teachers and the structures they taught are below:
1) Radish & Wakame: Do you ~?
2) Moomin-Satona & Jaguar: ~ because ~ .
3) Hikkun & Genzai-Shin: noun + infinitive construction (work to do, food to eat)
