This quarter, our students at both Edmonds and Shoreline are visiting local elementary schools during ESL class time to share Japanese culture with children. The Edmonds students are visiting a fifth-grade class at Seaview Elementary in two groups on alternate weeks, introducing different topics over 4 visits - Japanese language, origami, calligraphy, and tea ceremony (May 3, 10, 24, 30). On the fifth visit (June 7), the whole Edmonds class will go together to enjoy performances by the fifth graders and a potluck lunch.
The Shoreline class made just one visit to the kindergarten class at Highland Terrace Elementary School (May 24), where the children rotated among 4 groups to learn about calligraphy, origami, children's songs and the "face game".
