Traditional crafts and calligraphy

After the excitement of yesterday's field trip to Carytown, many students turned in for an early respite. Day five returned to the typical class schedule with the beginner class learning how to tell time and communicate their age. The advanced class reviewed particles and their uses as well as translated a Japanese recipe to be cooked by the students tomorrow. Once classes ended, students gathered to paint uchiwa (the fans shown below) in their own personal styles. Once the painted fans dried and the painting supplies were cleaned, students congregated to hear a lecture on Japanese governmental structure given by Professor Lauren Bell. Upon completing dinner, students will took part in calligraphy with traditional Japanese ink, writing their favorite kanji character.
