If you have not seen it, the Daily Yomiuri has published an article about how the current administration is looking to eliminate the Elementary School reforms that were recently put into place. I say that teachers in rural Saga need all the help they can get, seeing how there are fewer and fewer ALTs every year. Please read this post in the forums and consider emailing MEXT.

Also, another BIG thing you can do, is to talk to your ES teachers about it, if your Japanese allows. If they are in favor of Eigo Noto and the new course of study, give them the contact information that we’ve included.
