sentence patterns/vocabulary to be studied, teacher instructions, the
use of kanji/furigana on the worksheets, etc.) is set as a general guide
throughout. Teachers should adjust the level and difficulty appropriately
according to their students' proficiency. Particularly when employing
the "Message," "My Story," photograph captions, and
other text passages, teachers should select either Japanese or English
based on the Japanese-language level of their students.

to use both Japanese and English, as necessary.
