2020年教育改革で、大きく変化した義務教育の英語。
小学校5、6年生で現在すでにスタートしている英語が、2020年には「成績のつく教科」となり、中学校で学んでいた内容が繰り上げられました。
中学・高校の英語の授業は基本的にオールイングリッシュ、スピーキングやライティングで自分自身の意見も表現できるような力を養います。
一番わかりやすい、学習する語彙数でアミティーのレッスンと今回の教育改革の内容を比較してみましょう。
↑アミティーで学習する語彙数です。小学校高学年で、2,972語の習得をします。
これは、学校で行われる英語学習の中学卒業程度の語彙数（2,500語程度）に相当します。
このように、アミティーでレッスンを受けていると、小学校卒業までには中学卒業相当の語彙力を身に付けることができます。
また、「英語で表現すること」に対して前向きに取り組めるようになるので、自分の意見を言ったり、書いたりすることにも対応可能です。

Different ways to say "Hello"
Hello Everyone I hope you`re having an excellent week!
In today`s article we will cover how to "break the ice” when starting conversations in English.
The most common way to greet someone in English is to say "Hello, How are you?". Even though that way is perfectly fine it can be a bit of an overused and dull way to start a conversation. What you could instead do is one of the following:
Compliments
"That`s a nice shirt. I like that design" would be an example of a great way to start a conversation. It makes the other person feel good and it gives you something to immediately talk about. Compliments on clothing or hair are usually pretty safe and are not too familair to give, even to strangers.
Commentary about the surroundings
"Geez it`s pretty cold today!". Comments about the weather or anything in the surroundings are always a safe bet when it comes to starting conversations. You could also transition into talking about seasonal clothing and what you prefer wearing in which season and so forth. You could even follow up with a compliment!
Try out these suggestions the next time you want to start a conversation in English!
Happy Sunday everyone! I'm back with a new topic. You might be confused because of the title but don't worry, I am going to explain it thoroughly. Have you ever heard of "Onomatopoeia"? ,if not, it is used in English to express a feeling through sounds and noises. The title is actually an example of an onomatopoeia. "Achoo!" is used to express a person sneezing, another example is "meow, meow" a sound that cats make, on the other hand it is always used for object sounds like "tick, tock" which expresses the sound of a clock.
Now that we've learned what an "Onomatopoeia" is, here's a list of the most common Onomatopoeias in English.
1.achoo =sneeze
2. gulp =sound of swallowing/ drinking
3. zzzz =sleeping
4. ding dong= doorbell
5. chirp = sound that birds make
6. honk- sound of a car horn
7. oink- sound that pigs make
8. quack- sound that ducks make
9. sizzle- a sound produced when frying or searing something
10. boom- a sound that is produced when something exploded.
