Dan-Dan Japanese's goal is to network with colleagues, as lifelong learners, to share and discuss ideas and to widen the realm of resources in Japanese language education. DAN-DAN JAPANESE:
Dan-Dan means ‘gradually’ in Japanese. Learning another language takes time! The word Dan has another meaning. Have you ever heard of ‘Dans’ that you earn in Karate (Belts)? The Dan-Dan series works in the same

sense, in that you earn ‘belts’. Traditional Japanese karate is based on first earning your ‘Kyuu’ belts and then progressing to your ‘Dan’ belts. The colour of the belts vary from karate school to school. It is the aim of DDJ to produce a series of resources (Year Courses and Term Courses) for all levels of Japanese for the Australian school system. Resources can be found on the Teachers Pay Teachers site; DanDanJapanese

I have received some messages asking if the Educational Readers are only useful if implementing the Dan-Dan Japanese units (workbook).
No, they do supplement and reinforce some cultural points and some vocabulary from the unit. However, they can be used STAND ALONE. https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/store/dan-dan-japanese
