East Asian Celebration!






As our unit on East Asian religions came to a close, we had the opportunity to engage in a variety of Asian activities. The hosting group brought in Chinese calendars, and Korean language translations (which helped us uncover some of those mysterious words in the hit song "Gangnam style").  Then they led us in making Chinese lanterns and acquainted us with Chinese New Years traditions. Afterward, the class had the opportunity to take on the challenge of making an origami crane. All the while, the students got to munch on fortune cookies, Japanese candy, and sip on green tea. The celebration was not complete without Korean tunes...Bravo to Maria, Karen, Radek, Nick, and Roberto!
