Level 3 Japanese Reader Class Set for Classroom Use

This Level 3 Japanese Reader Class Set is recommended for beginner to upper-beginner Japanese learners who are ready to develop practical reading and conversational skills through familiar, repeated shopping dialogues.

Through visits to seven different everyday shops in Japan, students naturally practise asking prices, requesting quantities, reading Japanese currency, and using everyday shopping vocabulary. Authentic photographs provide visual support while helping learners experience what shopping in Japan is really like. The PDF specifically describes seven everyday shops featuring food, cute products, and character goods.

In addition, teachers who purchase this Japanese Reader Class Set & Online Flipbook Pack can choose the number of printed readers they need and receive password-protected access to the matching online flipbook.

As a result, teachers can display the reader on an interactive whiteboard, projector, or classroom screen while students follow along in their own books. This makes whole-class teaching, guided reading, pair work, and independent learning simple and engaging.

🛍️Go Shopping in Japan

Take students on a visual shopping adventure through real Japanese shops while learning practical Japanese they can use in everyday situations.

Students explore different foods, drinks, souvenirs, character goods, and other products while reading real prices and seeing Japanese currency. Predictable dialogue patterns allow learners to concentrate on meaning and gradually build confidence using Japanese independently.

For example, the reader repeatedly uses exchanges such as asking the price of takoyaki, giving the price in yen, requesting a quantity, and calculating the total.

🎯 What Students Will Learn with This Level 2 Japanese Reader Class Set

Students will practise:

• Ask and answer prices using「いくらですか。」
• Request items and quantities using「～こ ください。」
• Read Japanese prices and recognize yen（円）
• Build practical vocabulary through authentic Japanese shops and products
• Develop reading fluency through repeated shopping dialogues
