市民グループとして、英語の活動をいくつか行っていますが、
そのうちの一つ、英語絵本や物語を楽しむ会が昨日ありました。
I, Miyanishi, am a representative, leader, of a local community group and it has three different types of "Use, Learn, and Enjoy English" groups.
It was a picture books & stories day yesterday.

都民講座から引き続き来られている方もあって、
それぞれ自分にあった英語との付き合い方を見つけていかれているようです。
We got some new members who attended Tomin Koza at Kokubunji high school and I'm happy to know they started to find their own ways to do something in English.

写真は飛び出す絵本、Pop-Up 絵本と戯れる紳士淑女な図と^^;
みんなが持ち寄った絵本です。
Below are the pictures of a nice guy and beautiful ladies WOWing with a pop-up picture book, and all the books the members brought and read aloud.
月に一度でも、こうした集まりに参加しておけば、
英語がプッツリ途絶えてしまうことがありませんし、
英語以外のプラスα、知恵、感動、ゆとりの時間といったものがついてきますよね。
(それもお金に頼らずに。昨日は場所代を人数で割って一人150円でしたね^^)
If you join these kinds of meetings even once a month, then you have no worries of missing English in your daily life. Furthermore, it's not only English language you'd gain in the meeting, but many more other things such as wisdom, inspiring and relaxing time will follow. (Well, the best thing would be that we don't necessarily be dependent on money to have the time like that. It was only 150yen yesterday for two hours. Isn't it marvelous?)
