This page shows links to Sentence Structure Diagram examples.
Sentences are chosen from “New Horizon 2”, a textbook used by grade 8 students in junior high schools in Japan.
Sentence Structure Diagrams greatly aid in the efficient learning of English for learners. Special audio accompanies the diagrams, enhancing understanding and accelerating acquisition, especially through reading-aloud activities.
They are recommended for junior high school students who may have struggled with English without a clear understanding of how to study it.
By simply listening to the audio on a smartphone and repeatedly reading aloud while looking at the diagrams, students may notice a significant improvement in their skills.
What accelerates the improvement is the diagrams’ visual assistance in understanding sentences, which is essential in reading aloud activities.
The diagrams can also be used as a test preparation tool for checking vocabulary, grammar and sentence structure, and Japanese translations.
Model English speeches are also available on the linked pages, which can be used in various learning processes such as listening and shadowing.
The linked pages contain members-only content, some of which is currently available for time-limited complimentary access.

Main text and Japanese translation, audio (Audio segments alternating between English and Japanese for each phrase, etc.), charts.
