Naze? Doushite? Science 1st Grade
Improve your Japanese reading comprehension while learning about science too -- with this book that answers children’s curiosities about the world around them. This book is aimed towards Japanese children in the first grade (6 to 7 years old), and is formatted into different questions such as, “Why do giraffes have long necks?”, “Why do butterflies like to gather around flowers?”, “How come humans don’t have tails?”, and “Why does it snow?” The book explains topics connected to science like the weather, human biology, and animals by breaking them down into these questions and providing explanations that answer them in a way that’s easy to understand.
The explanations make use of simple Japanese words and grammar and don't make use of too many kanji characters. The colorful illustrations can make reading more appealing to kids, and when paired with the simple language, can also make it easier for beginner Japanese learners of any age to read about science without feeling overwhelmed by anything too difficult. The book also includes trivia about a variety of topics, so even adult learners might pick up a new fun fact or two.
Structure:
- The book is divided into 4 topics: the human body, animals, food & things around you, and the world & outer space. At the end of each section, there is a short trivia portion where readers can learn fun facts or answer a quiz related to the topic.
- Each topic is further divided into science-related questions that kids might be curious about, with the explanations for them written in simple Japanese.
- All of the kanji used in the book includes furigana for easy reading.
