We gathered all the 12th grade Humanities Course students and gave them words of encouragement as they face the challenge of taking the Center Exam (College Entrance Exam in Japan) on Saturday and Sunday. My colleague, Kenney, led them in a variation of a Japanese tradition, which is kind of a group chant/clap. In this case, first they did it with one finger (because there's only one life to live), then 4 fingers (because there were 4 different classes there), and finally with their hands, because we teachers bring it all together. It was pretty cool... not sure if the video captures the atmosphere fully though.
この前の木曜日に沖尚の文係の高３を集めて激励のあいさつを行った。ケニーが司会者で副理事長は激励のあいさつをしてくれました。手拍子の意味は？まず、一本の指は、人生一つしかないという意味があって、そして四本は四つのクラスを表している。最後のは先生を含めて５本になるという意味があった。このビデオは雰囲気をうまく現しているかどうかわかんないけど。。。
