Gateway Elementary Home Page Sawara Elementary Fukuoka, Japan Internet Project between Gateway and Sawara This is a picture of Mr. Yuzuru Ryuzouji's 5th grade classroom in Fukuoka, Japan. We've been exchanging email and data with them. You can see the Shyuji, an ancient calligraphy, on the back wall. They sent us some in the mail along with some origami.
Japanese students eat in the classroom instead of in a lunchroom.
They clean up after themselves instead of having others clean up for them. Balance is very important in this country. The first picture shows students on uni-cycles. In the next, they are on stilts. Gateway students will continue to exchange data with these children to learn more about their country.
