Classes Underway / History Time!
Now that we've moved in, its time to start classes! The students have been seperated by language ability and are studying Japanese in 4 different class levels.
Our second group excursion together was an educational trip to the Edo museum where the kids learning about old Tokyo and the way of life in pre-modern Japan. They enjoyed seeing many cultural artifacts and models on display. This was also their chance to work on community conversation assignments- asking staff and guides questions in Japanese related to their current classwork.
Everyday's a lesson in language and culture!
