It's a Beautiful Day

That sounds like a pretty fun game. I'm not that surprised at their narwhal reaction because they do look kind of funny. Those were some pretty fun lessons you came up with! You must be TENSAI!!!
I should stop using Japanese in my classes too but I find that it helps me relate to the kids better.
Awh. I love the 1st graders. I got to do jumprope with some last week. So hard to believe they will be hardened and cynical in 4 or 5 years.

glad to hear your game went well. i`ve kinda given up on making my own games, atleast for now. >.>; my collection of over-used pre-made games has been doing ok so far...
that`s really... i dont want to say "ambitious of you", but that`s a mighty hard approach to teaching 5th/6th years. :x i really admire and commend you for taking such an approach. i myself use way more Japanese than i should just because i can and its become a bad habit... as you said, it is really hard not to. you`re so awesome for only using English.
