Okayama Prefectural Kurashiki Amaki Senior High School has worked on the practical study of scientific English since 2005, when the school was given a Super Science High School (SSH) assignation by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT). In our school, and in this paper, the term “Scientific English” means “an approach to use English in science classes, and to make or practice slides in English”. As a result of adopting English into science classes in our Junior High School (established as an addition to the senior high school in 2007) and Group Research classes in our Senior High School, an attitude of attempting to communicate actively in English on scientific topics is emerging. With many opportunities to give presentations at science competitions in recent years, students’ presentations are now becoming highly esteemed in both content and English levels. This paper reports on the principle and practice of the implementation of “Scientific English” in our high schools, and teaching methods that are effective for Japanese students.
