Details In 2018, I conducted a class using We can! 2 for one of the three hours of English every week for one class of 6th graders (23 students) at S elementary school. Through behavioral observation, reflections from the students, and analysis of interviews with the class teachers and ALTs, we were able to clarify the results and the issues that need to be addressed in order to communicate real thoughts and ideas in English.
