T his part of Appendix A lists the prescribed kanji for Japanese 12 and suggested kanji to introduce in Japanese 11.
The Japanese 12 kanji list is divided into two parts:
kun-yomi (Japanese pronunciation listed in hiragana ) and 
on-yomi (Chinese pronunciation listed in katakana ) for each kanji as required.
The student is to learn only those readings listed. The kanji readings listed in brackets are provided for enrichment only. All kun-yomi are listed with the appropriate reading for the kanji , but not for the kanji compounds provided. The on-yomi , however, has the reading for all kanji in the compound.
The kanji are listed by topics such as numbers, days of the week, time words, colours, and so on. Those not listed under a specific topic are provided at the end, under the heading "Others"
.
The suggested kanji list for Japanese 11 is provided to help the Japanese 11 teacher decide which kanji might be introduced in Grade 11. This is not a prescriptive list, but helps avoid all kanji being taught in Grade 12. Teachers are encouraged to introduce kanji before Grade 11, depending on students' abilities and interests.
