Good morning! Ohno Satoshi’s ARASHI DISCOVERY~! Today’s question is about writing materials. I think we all use the black board a lot during class at school. Then, the tool used to write letters on the black board, what is it called? Please choose from these next three:
1 チョーク (chooku = chalk)
2 ボーク (booku = balk)
3 ロック (rokku = rock)
（BGM：♪マイガール）
The answer is number 1 [chalk].
Being used to cellphones and computers, the opportunity to write using our own hands are lessening. Fukuoka University of Education has established a blackboard classroom with blackboard on every side. According to them, establishing a classroom with the purpose for blackboard classroom is the first in the country, and the instructor in charge said, [There are a lot of case where the students remember the letters and their writing order by seeing the teacher’s figure when he/ she’s writing on the blackboard. So we want them to have confidence and have the basic for practicing]. I see. Yes, certainly. Eh~ blackboard. Is to write letters. But for me, blackboard is for drawing pictures. But I, the topic is changed, but, I was in charge of the blackboard, for one time. When the blackboard was dirty, the teacher kind a lost his/ her motivation. When the chalk is short, he/ she also seemed dissatisfied. I felt that atmosphere, and I thought to be in charge of the blackboard. And then. And in break time, I kept the blackboard clean all the time. And made sure that the chalks are new. And then I looked forward for seeing the reaction when the teacher came. And then, before he/ she wrote, [Oh, today’s amazing. The blackboard is really clean~] Yossha~! Like that. Yeah. That’s irresistible. Well, that’s all I want to say. That’s all, it was Ohno Satoshi!

And, I said to the shop person, [There’s a new variety]. Then, he went. The shop person, without scaring us, he killed it. Is this it? He asked. Well, well that’s right, though… I said (laughs) Odorokanai n desu ka ne? I suppose he wasn’t surprised ne? I wonder would it be better to just leave it alone? That’s a new variety yo. That’s The Satoshi. That’s all, it was Ohno Satoshi!

Automatically economical? Fufufufu (laughs). Also. That’s right! That, towel. Bath towel. That, after you use it once, does it goes into the washing machine? Is that so? As for me, I use it around 3 times. You use it like that right? It’s okay, right? I’m correct, right? Because we’re just wiping clean thing. It’s correct, right? Because we’re only wiping something that is already become clean. It would smell nicer, the bath towel. That’s why you can use it for many times. That, when is to stop, I wonder?

If I put on gloves, even when I fish, ano ne, it’s hard to take in the heat. So I do it without wearing gloves. Only the hands! It’s difficult ne. I thought, can’t I do something about it?
