"I'll Always Love You" 4，5年生に読んでみました。
国語の教科書に出てたの忘れてたらしい
読んでるうちに思い出したようですが・・
情報処理能力、問題有りか！？
生徒は日本語版を手元に広げ、
私が英語版を読み聞かせ
じぃ～～ん
この方法、大分前に中学から英語を始め、
読むのが苦手だった生徒によくやりました。
中学生クラス、試験前日、対策の問題だけはやはりツカレル～～
"Love Me Do"♪
のディクテーションと言うか、ブレインストーミング風
私も一緒にやってみました。
I'll always be true の ('ll)の部分を落としてしまってました。
↓The Twelve Days of Christmas のカードが出来ます。
The Twelve Days of Christmas
The Twelve Days of Christmas の説明のみ

What in the world do leaping lords, French hens,
Swimming swans, and especially the partridge who won't come out
Of the pear tree have to do with Christmas?
Today, I found out.
From 1558 until 1829, Roman Catholics in England were
Not permitted to practice their faith openly. Someone
During that era wrote this carol as a catechism song for young Catholics.
It has two levels of meaning: the surface meaning
Plus a hidden meaning known only to members of their church. Each
Element in the carol has a code word for a religious reality
Which the children could remember.
-The partridge in a pear tree was Jesus Christ.
-Two turtle doves were the Old and New Testaments.
-Three French hens stood for faith, hope and love.
-The four calling birds were the four gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke & John.
-The five golden rings recalled the Torah or Law, the first five books of the Old Testament.
-The six geese a-laying stood for the six days of creation.
-Seven swans a-swimming represented the sevenfold gifts of the Holy Spirit--Prophesy, Serving, Teaching,
Exhortation, Contribution, Leadership, and Mercy.
-The eight maids a-milking were the eight beatitudes.
-Nine ladies dancing were the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit--Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness,
Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self Control.
-The ten lords a-leaping were the ten commandments.
-The eleven pipers piping stood for the eleven faithful disciples.
-The twelve drummers drumming symbolized the twelve points of belief in the Apostles' Creed.
So there is your history for today. This knowledge was shared with me and I found it interesting and enlightening and now I know how that strange song became a Christmas Carol...so pass it on if you wish.'
Merry (Twelve Days of) Christmas Everyone.....
