Reflection
1. Most of the days, I was able to do it. So I think I did this one pretty well.
2. I did not do many of a conversation shadow practices. I have been really busy lately but I will try to do this activity more in the second half of the semester. 
3. I have done just a few of this activities, usually about five to ten minutes.
4. I think I miss one of the Japanese table to attend the review session. So, I think I did a pretty good job on this one. 

PE2: Activities
I will try to make this one more feasible and adjust it to lean towards what I have been doing regularly. 
1. Repeat vocabularies in each chapter in the textbook after the audio files. 5 minutes a day (or one chapter a day). 
[improve pitch, review vocabularies]
2. Practice the short conversation practices online (either from textbook or kizuna 311). 5 -10 minutes every other day. 
[improve speed, intonation]
3. Listen to Japanese songs and sing along and look up a few vocabularies per song. 5 minutes a day. 
[improve pitch, speed, have new vocabularies]
4. Attend language table every week and engage in the conversation more. Try to initiate the questions and conversation during the language table. And don't get intimidated by new vocabs!
[communication, become more comfortable with communicating in Japanese]
