3- Using the pictures and summaries on Padlet, we share about the topic in small groups.
Our cameras and microphones are on and we may ask questions. Group members may choose one person to share the Pallet website for the group, while another member may be the time keeper, to ensure everyone has a chance to share.
4- Participants are placed in different groups and we get to share with different people as explained above.
5- After the two sharing sessions, we are given time to reflect on how well we could share in Japanese.
