| Research Abstract |
This study reports on three classes of foreign language activities conducted in special needs education in Japan by describing how students enjoy the activities in English as a foreign language and suggests the following: First, even though students have developmental disorders, teachers can facilitate students learning by installing ICT devices which enable them to make attractive materials for students, and by introducing SST in class, they also help students concentrate on the content. Second, a lack of research studies might not only lead to insufficient support for teachers, but also cause some misgivings about the legitimacy of conducting foreign languages activities in special needs education in Japan.
