We are having Halloween party every year. The children and teachers are having such as fun time.
Zo (Pre-K) and Kujira (K) students enjoyed activity lunch today. For the first activity of this school year, they made dessert, fruits sauce mixed yogurt. Yogurt is a little sour, but it goes good with sweet blueberry sauce. It was very colorful and yummy dessert.
It has been a fun 3 weeks since school has begun, we have seen so many smiles and gradually the tension is loosening up. Children enjoy special classes.

We made coasters using cork, cloth, and glue!
Our hand got sticky, but we were able to make great coasters. We made warabi-mochi (Japanese snack) and had a tea party.

Every week we have scheduled calligraphy time, but this time we tried drawing pictures instead!
The children tried painting the more famous scenes in Seattle.
All of them were beautiful.

We made these well-known “beanbags” out of cloth and red beans. It was the first time some of the kids had held a needle! They sewed diligently, and were excited at the prospect of introducing their beanbag to the world.

We are on track.
Everyone has hammered nails into the boards they designed and created last Wednesday.
It was difficult trying to strike the nail in straight right away, but it was hard when the kid hammered patiently. Hang in there, almost done!

This week’s theme is playing.
We are making a pachinko machine by carpentry.
On the first day we cut the initial frame.
We used a saw to cut it and we sanded it.
We are looking forward to finishing.

In Summer Camp this week our project was to emulate Edo period dining by using what is termed “Ozen”, like a mini dining tray. Today’s lunch was served Ozen style. There were kids whose legs ached because they weren’t used to sitting in seiza (sitting atop their own legs), but ultimately the children were able to dine together in a really fun atmosphere.

Summer School had their fieldtrip yesterday. To reiterate the theme this week, children visited JCCCW and the Seattle Buddhist Church to learn more about Japanese-American history. We’d like to show our gratitude and thanks to the staff at JCCCW for their informative lecture and Pastor Irene for showing us such a good time. Thank you so very much!
