NihonGO NOW! is a beginning-level courseware package that takes a performed-culture approach to learning Japanese. This innovative approach balances the need for an intellectual understanding of structural elements with multiple opportunities to experience the language within its cultural context.

From the outset, learners are presented with samples of authentic language that are context-sensitive and culturally coherent. Instructional time is used primarily to rehearse interactions that learners of Japanese are likely to encounter in the future, whether they involve speaking, listening, writing, or reading.

Level 1 comprises two textbooks and accompanying activity books. These four books incombination with audio files allow instructors to adapt a beginning-level course, such as the first year of collect Japanese, to their students' needs. They focus on language and modeled behavior, providing opportunities for learners to acquire language through performance templates. Online resources provide additional support for both students and instructors. Audio files, videos, supplementary exercises, and a teachers' manual are available at www.routledge.com/9781138304147.

NihonGO NOW! Level 1 Volume 1 Activity Book provides a wealth of communicative exercises and assessment tools for students working through the first semester of the NihonGO NOW! course.

1-2-1C What’s going on? (BTS 1, 3)

How is hai はい used in each of the following conversations? Select from:

1. Affirmative response (‘that’s right’)
2. Handing something over (‘here you go’)
3. Accepting something handed to you (‘got it’)
4. Showing you are in attendance (‘here’ or ‘present’)

In this exercise, you may hear unfamiliar words, just as you would when speaking Japanese outside of the classroom since others won’t know what you’ve studied. This is a chance for you to practice using what you do know to get an idea of what’s going on.

Ex. 1.	This conversation occurs at a welcome party.	b
Ex. 2.	This conversation occurs in a classroom.	c
3.	This conversation occurs at a welcome party.	__________
4.	This conversation occurs in a classroom.	__________
