授業の題目 The aim of this course is to develop students' abilities so that they may confidently and actively participate in English discussions.
学修の概要 In this class, we will read a book and watch a film about "the man in black," singer/songwriter Johnny Cash. We will also watch a movie about his life (approximately 10 minutes/week, or one scene). Cash was one of the best-selling, best-known country and rockabilly singers in the 1950s until the 1970s; he then battled addiction before making a comeback in the 1990s until his death in 2003. Through his life and songs students will learn more about American history and culture, while improving their English skills.

Missing a class session is no excuse for missing homework and students will be held responsible for all materials covered in class.
学修の到達目標 This class will enable students to develop their English skills (listening, reading, writing, and speaking), while learning about one of the most famous and influential American artists of the 20th century.

In this class, you will learn many new vocabulary terms, how to study independently, and how to critically approach history, biography and film.

2) Two hours should be spent reviewing notes and materials from the previous class.


More specifically, each week, students will be asked to review the past week's lesson, study the vocabulary and expressions (which will be used on in-class quizzes), and finish writing and typing, then uploading (to Google Classroom) their final, one-paragraph opinion (to be submitted BEFORE the start of the following week's class).
