Bad quality picture but I forgot my camera so I only had my phone at school. I’ve seen lots of students looking at this board so I am really happy with it!

English Boards 1
One of the staples of being an Assistant Language Teacher is the ‘English Board’. I’m not the biggest fan of this idea because I’m not sure how many of the students actually look at it but the other teachers at the school (maths, science etc.) seem to love the boards. I now look at it as giving the other teachers a conversation starter with me (if it wasn’t for English Boards and Omiyage, small biscuits you give to the other teachers when you return from a trip, I would barely have Japanese conversations at work) and it also it’s a tangible way to show I do work!
I can’t seem to find pictures of all the English Boards I’ve done (my computer died in March and the back-up of my pictures was a bit patchy) but I thought I’d show those I could find. Since my school has two assistants most of these have been done with someone else so I can’t take all the credit/blame for how they turned out!
As you can see we’ve been using a small notice board as our English board. However, new massive standing notice boards have just arrived at our school. I’m not sure if the school actually ordered them but they really don’t seem to know what to do with them so they’ve offered us three! We’re brainstorming ideas of what to put on them now (student work, teachers profiles, school info in English….any other ideas anyone?!). I guess I’ll be making a lot more boards in the future!
