This is the fifth in a series of ten texts designed for teaching Japanese at the secondary level. Also available are supplementary instructional materials and teacher's guides. Throughout the two units of four lessons each, the theme centers around life in Japan as seen through the eyes of an American student. Each unit contains conversations, readings, review conversations, review readings, and writing exercises. An English translation of each conversation is included as well as a listing of the structural points covered in each lesson. (HW)
