Description

<p>“Saruga-shima,” a short story by Osamu Dazai, is an excellent teaching material as well as a well-written literary work. In this article I will show how to use the text in class for a more effective way of teaching kokugo. First the teacher makes his or her students simply read this interesting story without any explanation and interpretation. Then the teacher leads them to more critically read it so that they can find what the narrator doesn't say. Finally the students will learn a new way of seeing things through such interpretive work.</p>
