How to Prepare for the Coming Legal Obligation in Japan for the Newcomers' Children from South-America to Attend School : Necessary Conditions on Education and Training of School Teachers

在实施外国儿童义务教育制度之前，我们必须为这种情况做好准备，改变我们的教育环境，妥善管理这一制度。根据我们的相关研究，我们得出以下结论，其中一部分已经由地方政府管理。(1)外国儿童在入学前就能学习日语的教育制度是必不可少的。(2)在外国儿童和他们的父母来到日本之前，父母至少应该了解日本的学校制度，以便为接收海外儿童做好准备。我们的研究小组修改了最初由日本群马县太田朝日小学出版的说明书，并向公众通报了这一情况。(3)根据在群马县伊势崎市酒井县一所小学积累的日语教学经验，我们的研究小组出版了一本儿童日语基础教科书：《Youriyou！日本关丹(4)当特殊 关于我们 l-needs学校或班级接受外国儿童，学校和班级必须准备用儿童的母语进行交流。(5)无论孩子和他们的父母对他们是返回自己的国家还是永久留在日本的期望如何，在小学阶段就告诉他们上高中是多么有价值，这将是有效的。(6)对于初来日本的外国儿童家长来说，有必要明确地了解日本的学校文化和南美文化的差异，例如学校午餐和教材的费用，以及如何看待孩子的运动项目。此外，希望家长得到校长的解释，学校不是儿童的日托中心。如果父母中只有一方是外国人，特别是母亲是外国人，无法用日语交流，那么孩子的语言和学习能力可能会出现一些问题。为了防止这种情况，我们必须建立一个支持系统。(7)群马大学教师教育专门学校的研究小组成员，为了给留学生负责人提供理想的教师培养方案，记录了多元文化共生的研究生课程，并以报告的形式发表。我们还试图比较群马大学和爱知教育大学的这种教育的内容。少

Before a compulsory education system for foreign children is started, we must prepare for such a situation by changing our educational environment to administer the system properly. Based on our related research, we concluded the following, a part of which has already been administered by local governments.(1) An educational system in which foreign children can learn Japanese language before entering school is indispensable.(2) Before foreign children and their parents come to Japan, parents should at least understand the Japanese school system to ease preparations to receive children from overseas. Our research group revised the explanatory booklet that was originally published by Ota Asahi Elementary School, Gunma, Japan, and informed the public about it.(3) In light of the accumulated Japanese language teaching experiences at an elementary school in Sakai, Isesaki, Gunma, our research group published a basic Japanese textbook for children : Yattemiyou! Nihongo Kantan.(4) When specia … More l-needs schools or classes accept foreign children, the schools and classes must be prepared to communicate in the children's native language.(5) Irrespective of the children's and their parents' expectations of whether they are going to return to their country or stay in Japan permanently, it would be effective for them to be informed during the elementary school years how valuable it is for the children to attend high school.(6) It is necessary for foreign children's parents who have just come to Japan to receive a clear explanation of differences between Japanese school culture and South American culture, such as the costs of school lunch meals and course materials, and ways to regard their children's athletic events. Furthermore, it is desired that parents receive explanations from principals that a school is not a day-care center for children. In situations when only one foreign child's parent, especially the mother, is foreign and is unable to communicate in Japanese, some problems about the child's language and academic ability might occur. To prevent such cases, we must construct a support system.(7) Pursuing an ideal program of teacher training for those who are in charge of foreign students, a member of our research group at the Professional School for Teacher Education of Gunma University recorded the graduate courses in multicultural symbiosis and published it in report form. We also attempted a comparison of the contents of such education at the Gunma University with that at the Aichi University of Education. Less
