These include: Shopping, Family Life, School Life, Travel, Sports, Describing People, Festivals, Food, and popular culture. They increase their communication skills and understanding while participating in a variety of interactive activities and games. They also learn more about their own identity and language.

Students are encouraged to use spoken Japanese as much as possible.
