 Positive Affirmation is now available as “Shitajiki”!
Words are power! Words bring courage, positivity and new ideas. Words also bring negativity, pain and sometimes create illness and even take away one’s strength…
Our Affirmation Shitajiki was designed with 15 lines to keep children’s minds healthy.
The 15 short message were written by Hiromi Kawahara who has seen Japanese kids learning English and has been maintaining better education theory. Shitajiki is one of the common stationary tools used in studying in Japan. Students will see the positive messages on Shitajiki each time they study!
*These lines are meant to be read and the meaning of the words taken deeply, not to be sung and remembered like chants. Teachers should guide the students to understand each message solely in English with the nuances in the English language. No Japanese translation will be needed.
The positive energy works for teenage students who are meeting their adolescent period or even adult students when they see the messages.
On purpose the lines on this Shitajiki have no hints in Japanese. Students may take the same message differently when the circumstances change. Some words might make students nervous in Japanese but they might be able to say them in English.
We want the students to think and cherish the English language. To check the meaning of each word and to share how they take the messages in their own way.
We hope these messages will bring out children’s potential and their positive minds grow.
â– Back print : Planet of Earth in space (=kids with future)
A trip to the space is no longer an impossible dream anymore. Kids on Earth have bright futures and we designed this product with a hope for their new futures. We intend kids to keep up with positivity and individuality, not learning from the past only.
★The pinkish nebula at the top right is the Orion Nebula called M42. It’s one of the brightest nebulae. The Orion Nebula is an example of a stellar nursery where new stars are being born.
★The triangulum galaxy at the bottom left is called M33. It’s one of the spiral galaxies where stars are gathered in spiral arms.
We hope people who are interested in the universe have this item as one of their stationary♪
Bring this Shitajiki to every lesson and read the lines during the lesson break… Then your mind will be set open!
