After that we drew a huge outline of the state on large colored paper and wrote our facts inside the state. We also drew big colorful pictures to go with it. Then we shared it with the class. Our Japanese friend, Naoko, went to our school to teach us about the Japanese culture. The first day she taught us origami.
Origami is paper folding.
Throughout this unit we learned to speak Japanese, play games, and drink tea. We thought one of our favorite things was the green tea. Naoko gave us sugar cubes that look liked spike balls. She taught us how to be Japanese children. She told us they have school everyday except Sunday.
