In UOI lesson, the Shooting Star students discovered and shared their experiences about Shichi-Go-San and Okuizome. They worked in groups to answer questions and proudly shared their ideas with the class. It was wonderful to hear about their personal experiences with these traditional Japanese celebrations. The students also made kimono origami, decorating them with beautiful colors and drawings. We used their creations to decorate our Shichi-Go-San poster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Valentine\u2019s Day in the air, we explored Valentine\u2019s Day and White Day during our UOI lesson. The students were able to explain the difference between the two: on Valentine\u2019s Day, girls give chocolates to boys, and on White Day, boys give chocolates to girls. They shared that people give chocolates to those they love to make them happy. After our discussion, the children created beautiful heart crafts using sticker paper and torn flower paper. We combined their artwork to make a lovely Valentine\u2019s lantern, which now brightens our classroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As spring approaches, we talked about hanami (cherry blossom viewing) and the summer hanabi (fireworks) festivals in Japan. The students shared how their families enjoy these special seasonal events. They especially enjoyed watching Ms. Fronie\u2019s videos about her hanami and hanabi experiences, which helped them connect classroom learning with real-life traditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
