This book dedicates to show the elementary school students a typical day at a Chinese elementary school. Chinese educational system has put special emphasis on student&#8217;s health, so this book serves as an example of how high quality education balances student&#8217;s life by allocating time not only to studying but also to activities that keep the students healthy.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><b>Which SDGs this book can be referred to?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p>This tadoku book is intended for young Japanese language learners to improve their reading ability.

Why did you create the story?<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I think the students at PS147 will benefit by seeing other ways of education so their world can be opened up a little bit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">____________________________________________________________________________<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>2. How does the story address SDG #4 (quality of education)? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p>This story introduced a different country\u2019s high quality education with emphasis on student\u2019s health.<\/p>\n<h4><b>3. How did interviewing possible readers influence the design process<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">?<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I realized that they know very little about other country\u2019s customs.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>4. How did receiving written feedback from possible readers influence the design process?<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I get to simplify my version more. <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>5. What challenges did you encounter when adapting your story? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0Trying to simplify the versions for elementary students.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>6. What was most frustrating about the process? \u00a0Most rewarding? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Sometimes the information is hard to simplify. But it\u2019s nice to have the book finished.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>7. What did you find helpful to get you through it? \u00a0<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What were your solutions to the challenges you identify #6 and why? The instructor helped me a lot by simplifying the content. <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>8. Where did you apply the most creativity in your book? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most of the content came from my life experience, I apply some creativity into the format of the story.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>9. What advice do you have for students who are interested in creating Tadoku books for young learners? <\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Write a simple story with simple sentences.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>10. How was your overall experience? \u00a0(Please provide thoughts and takeaway on the project.)<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I think it\u2019s a little too difficult trying to apply SDG\u2019s goals into a elementary 0 level book. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>11. What makes your book unique from a book written by native Japanese speakers and why?<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Because this book is about Chinese elementary school and from my personal experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Full Version<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The college level, Tadoku level 3<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One day at a typical Chinese Elementary school.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":613,"featured_media":59,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3],"tags":[6,8,9],"class_list":["post-40","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-jpn-302","category-spring-2019","tag-education","tag-japanese","tag-sdg"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/613"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":244,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40\/revisions\/244"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/japanese-tadoku-project\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
