English Board manga pages that have the translations pop out for the kids to flip between the translations

Tsuredure Children - "Re" (School Rom-Com Manga)

Perfect for a Valentine's English Board activity! ❤️

I recently revisited the anime and manga of Tsuredure Children, and I still think it's hilarious. It’s a school rom-com that’ll add some lightheartedness to your lessons, especially if you're using it for a Valentine's-themed English board.


Plot Summary of "Re":

In this chapter, two high schoolers are texting each other. Both are thinking about confessing their feelings to the other but are unsure if doing it via SMS is the best option. Their awkwardness and humor are relatable and perfect for classroom discussions!


How to Use This Comic:

  1. Print Settings:

    • Print FONT TO BACK [用紙の両面に印刷(B)] on A4 paper.
    • Use PRINT LENGTHWISE [長辺を綴じる(L)] and set the page orientation to PORTRAIT [縦].
  2. Fold the Paper:

    Fold the pages hot-dog style, ensuring that the English comic is on top of the Japanese translation.

  3. Cut the Pages:

    Cut the pages as shown in the example picture to separate each panel.

  4. Attach to Your English Board:

    Tape or tack the cut-out pages to your English board, creating an engaging visual display!


Notes:

  • I’ve removed one joke from the original manga to make it more appropriate for school. While fans of the anime/manga might notice its absence, it won't affect the overall experience, so no worries!
  • Feel free to read the original manga for free at http://tsuredurechildren.com/Re/.

Happy Teaching!

Enjoy using this fun, romantic, and humorous manga in your classroom! 🎨📚

      This is a super fun idea, I might do this with some other manga myself!

      I love this idea! I am very curious whether you actually did this the way you described... 11 A3 pages seems like a lot to fit onto my English board... Gonna try my best though, it would be nice to leave it up over the summer when the JHS students are coming in for clubs
