Can-do goal

You can hear, read and type タ・チ・ツ・テ・ト without answer choices.

カタカナ基礎：タ行

Click each character, listen, and imitate the sound. Then cover the romaji and retrieve it from memory.

Pronunciation focus

ツ has short strokes arranged more horizontally than シ. Use stroke direction, not only dot position, to distinguish them. Compare standard print with careful handwriting; decorative font details are not new strokes.

Form and handwriting

• タ: three strokes; build the top before the inner diagonal.
• チ: three strokes; two upper marks precede the curved lower stroke.
• ツ: three strokes; two short marks spread horizontally before the downward sweep.
• テ: three strokes; the lower stroke begins below two horizontals.
• ト: two strokes; place the short mark beside the vertical.

Write each character slowly three times, then once from memory. Compare structure and stroke direction rather than decorative font thickness.

Mixed retrieval

The practice screen mixes roughly 70% current targets with 30% characters from mastered earlier groups. Practise both directions: character to sound and sound to character.

Mastery task

Complete recognition, listening and active recall practice. Each mode requires at least five attempts and 80% accuracy. Review the group again tomorrow before treating it as stable knowledge.
