Not sure how useful this would be. This dictionary might be useful. This is a Japanese site for learning English. But I'm surprised she doesn't have an electronic dictionary (denki jisho - 電気辞書) that she can use.
Labeling things is great as well as preparing phrase cards for common classroom phrases -
Excuse, can I use the bathroom.
Can you help me?
Can I borrow a ...?
I don't understand...
Where is/are the ....

Pair her with a reliable student and keep her nearby you. She'll probably be pretty dependent at first. Encourage a student to engage her in play and keep talking even if she doesn't respond. I noticed that often they won't respond or may give a confused look at first response, but just keep trying.
Japanese children are incredibly group oriented and being left out can be traumatizing. Just by being part of the class it's often assumed they are part of the group. She may not be used to asking people to play and may need someone to take the lead.
There are some cultural differences that will be hard to overcome. They take their shoes off inside and for PE. Kids help clean the school. They eat lunch in the classroom and help serve food. They stand when answering a question. They often have mandatory club activities after class. She might be further along academically...though they learn math in a very different way. Give her chances to share things from her culture or read Japanese tales in English.
Momotaro- Peach boy Taro
Urashimataro- Urashima and the kingdom beneath the sea
This site has online bilingual books depending on her ability level.
Also consider easy children's audiobooks.
If she's older she might actually be able to read English better than she speaks. Often Japanese learn English from early elementary school. The focus is on reading and writing, not speaking, so they're often too shy to speak even if they understand. Many English words are used in Japanese but may have vowel sounds added to them. For example taxi is takushi in Japanese. She may know British versions of words depending on who she had English lessons with, like eraser is rubber so be careful there.
