Japanese

This week we celebrated our Japanese language and culture learning in our last session of Japanese for 2014.  Firstly, we worked together to make a kimono (Japanese traditional outfit) out of newspaper. This was great fun and we all contributed in one way or another. Doesn’t Madison look beautiful!
 
 
 
 
We also made Te-Maki sushi. This was a great challenge for some of us. Te-Maki sushi is not like the traditional cuts of sushi that we normal buy. Instead of rolling the sea-weed, you must fold the sea-weed to make a cone. Miss Campbell made us use chopsticks to place the fillings into our Te-Maki - it was easier said than done!

 
 
 
To close our Japanese lessons Cody~kun, Jago~kun, Trevor~kun, Jasmine~san, Sophie~san, Olivia~san and Danielle~san presented their Japanese language learning as conversations. Some of these children didn’t even need to read from their books!
 
 

 
Thank you Room 6 for your enthusiasm and commitment towards learning Japanese! Arigato gozaimasu!

  2. I loved doing Japanese and especially loved having this cultural day. I enjoyed helping out with the kimono and making/trying sushi. Jasmine and I presented our Japanese conversation reasonably well, not quite as fluently as Sensei Campbell.
