Elementary school timetable (kana, kanji, English) teaching materials

Headline: Body text:

You can create an elementary school timetable in kana, kanji, and English. You can display it in PowerPoint or print the PDF and use it as a craft project. You can print it out in A4 size, enlarge it to display on a school bulletin board, or shrink it to put it on a school bag or desk pad. Feel free to use it however you like. 

The teaching materials (PowerPoint/PDF) introduced in this article can actually be downloaded and used. After completing a simple registration form using the materials download form below, you will be directed to the download page. (Once you register, your input will be saved for future use.)

The Japanese version of the kana and kanji is available with or without illustrations. The English version only has illustrations and can be used as an English learning material.

Steps for creating a timetable 

① Print out the PDF of the timetable (first page: timetable base / second page onwards: subject periods)

② Select the frame of the subject you want to use and cut it out along the dotted line.

3. Write the school hours on the backing paper and paste the cut-out subject frames according to each student's timetable.

*If you are missing a subject, you can create it using blank cards. 
*You can make them look neater by printing the frame of the subject you want to use on sticker paper and sticking double-sided tape on it before cutting it out. 


The "UD Digital Textbook Font" and the European font "UD Digikyo Latin" used in the teaching materials are available through the MORISAWA BIZ+ service (55 UD fonts available for 330 yen per month).
