Welcome to Wonderland‘Blue Book’

聞いて、リズムに乗って、広がる英語の世界！

【子どもたちと英語を使い始める前に】①Welcome to Wonderland : Blue Book は Red Book より少しだけ聞こえてくる英語の量が多くなっています。でも、Red Book で英語を使って活動をされた後ですと、その変化に気が付かないくらいの違いです。
②音源で聞く英語も、簡単な単語や文を見えるようにしました。 聞かせたらすぐに読ませるためではなく、音源で聞く単語や文の目印になるように、ページにちりばめておきました。子どもが気付いて拾い読みをすることがあれば、 「そうねぇ、」と相槌を打ってあげてください。
③ 3 年生から「外国語活動」として英語を必修で学ぶようになり、英語がとても身近になりました。子どもたちは授業を受ける前から、いろいろな生活場面で英語で話しあっている人を見かける機会が増えています。自分も話せるようになることを期待しているでしょう。

④ 3 年生の国語では、ローマ字指導もあります。アルファベット文字との接点が急速に増えます。日本語の音を表記するためにアルファベット文字を使います
が、その表す音が特に訓令式の場合、T-shirt→T-syatu、lion→raion、table→teburu のように、同じアルファベット文字を使いながら異なる「音」を現していることに気づかせる必要があります。
⑤ Red Book より、文字が多くなっています。また、聞きながら伝わってくる情報量も多くなっています。イラストを見ながら聞いて、分かったところを確認します。子どもが気づかなかった（聞き逃した）ことがあっても、無理をせずに次の機会まで待ちましょう。2 回目、3 回目と聞き直すたびに、聞きとれる内容が増えてくることに自分で気が付くと、聞くこと自体を楽しみにするようになります。
⑥ 英語をたくさん聞くことが、話せるようになる下地を作ります。イラストを見ながら何度でも聞き続けて、聞き取れる量が増えてくる間に、文字があると、音とイラストと文字の関係にも、少しずつ気づいてくると思います。新しい発見の報告があるまで待ちましょう。
※3，4 年生では、聞けば意味を類推できる英語の語彙は 1,500 語を越えています。

⑦GIGA School 構想の前倒しで、プログラミングを初めとして ICT 機器を使って授業を受けることも増えましたから、英語に由来するカタカナ語を使うことも多くなり、アルファベット文字のキーの場所もおぼえています。自力でネットに入って必要な情報を得てくることもできるようになります。
⑧子どもの ICT 学習環境が変わってきたのは、日本だけではありません。

むしろ、近隣のアジア諸国と比べると遅れているくらいです。英語を聞いてやり取りをし、読めそうな文字があれば発音し、積極的に取り組んでみましょう。
私たち大人は、子どもが使い始める英語を、しっかり受け止めて、自力で修正していくようになるまで、聞かせ続けることを心がけましょう。

（表紙） Wonderland の全景です。

この絵本を手にした子どもたちは、Red Book のときと同じように、また絵の隅々まで見渡して、知っているお話の主人公を見つけたり、お城にいるカエルの王様と、桜の木の傍にいるカエルとを見比べたり、木の陰からピンポンの試合を見つめているブタ君を見つけて、他にも動物がいるか探そうとしているかもしれません。 Can you find any animals？ Pig. Dog. Koala. と呟き
始めたら、Yes, that’s a pig. Yes, I see a dog, too. Where is a koala?などと子どもの発話を受けて、正しい英文で言い直しながら「やり取り」をすると、子どもはそれを聞いて、心の中で言い直してくれます。こうして、英語のルールに触れながら力を蓄えていくのですね。子どもの気持ちが英語に向かい始めたところで、お話を聞いて見よう、と声を掛けてみましょう。
