Hello everyone!

For the UOI, we continued presenting our drawing, enumerating the family members, how many brothers we have, what our favorite thing to do or bond as a family is, and more. Some students were eager to share about their families and their favorite bonds, while others were still shy and hesitant to stand in front of the class. Shooting star students were happy to ask questions, even if they were unrelated to our topic.

Koinobori (鯉のぼり) are traditional Japanese carp-shaped windsocks flown to celebrate Children’s Day on May 5th. These colorful streamers are usually made of cloth or paper and resemble koi fish (carp), symbolizing strength, courage, and perseverance in Japanese culture. We made a craft using the toilet tissue core for the fish body, designing it with different colors of circle-shaped paper, and sticking it. We also used colorful soft paper for the tail. We used fish-shaped white paper stuck with colorful circular paper for Aurora kids.

We were thrilled when we had time to play in the park. Our happiness was impossible to miss the moment we arrived. Their eyes lit up with excitement, and laughter bubbled as they ran ahead, eager to explore every corner.

Thank you for your time. May you have a memorable holiday!

See you again next week.
