Features: The "New Concept Japanese" series is a textbook series introduced by our company from SISA Publishing House in Korea, primarily aimed at elementary Japanese learners. The series consists of "New Concept Japanese 1," "New Concept Japanese 2," and "Teacher's Book for New Concept Japanese 1 & 2." "New Concept Japanese 1" and "New Concept Japanese 2" serve as the main textbooks, with a total of 36 lessons. Each lesson (except Lessons 1 and 2, which focus on explanations of characters and pronunciation) is composed of six parts: dialogue, vocabulary list, grammar points, sentence pattern exercises, listening exercises, and "Playing Games in Japanese."
The dialogue section presents conversations related to the lesson topic, followed by illustrations summarizing the dialogue content, providing learners with the opportunity to recall and retell the dialogue by looking at the pictures. The vocabulary list section selects new words and phrases that appear in each lesson and are significant for future learning. In addition to providing definitions, it also marks the pitch accent and part of speech of each word based on "Daikijin (Second Edition)," "Shinmei Kokugo Jiten (Fifth Edition)," and "NHK Japanese Pronunciation and Pitch Accent Dictionary (New Edition)."
The grammar points section highlights important grammatical structures that appear in the dialogues, demonstrating their meaning, conjugation patterns, and contextual usage through numerous illustrative examples. The sentence pattern exercises and listening exercises comprehensively improve learners' language application skills in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The "Playing Games in Japanese" section combines education with entertainment, introducing the key learning points of the lesson through games and guiding learners to master the key points through this review method.
Additionally, some lessons in the main textbooks include small knowledge columns on Japanese language and culture to help learners understand the characteristics of the Japanese language and become familiar with Japanese society and culture. At the end of each textbook, there are practice exercises and translations of the dialogue sections. The practice exercises focus on key grammatical structures in each book to help reinforce the learned knowledge. The translations of the dialogue sections are provided for deeper understanding and are for reference only.
The "Teacher's Book for New Concept Japanese 1 & 2" includes learning objectives, detailed explanations of grammar points, and guidance on how to effectively lead learners through sentence pattern exercises, listening exercises, and "Playing Games in Japanese."
