Hina Matsuri (Girls'Day) in Japanese Class!

Mr. Blackwelder's Japanese 1-2 classes have recently completed doll projects in a celebration of Hina Matsuri, or Girls' Day, celebrated on March 3rd in Japan, usually by families with daughters. Each student created two- or three-dimensional dolls and explained their physical characteristics (shape, body parts, clothing, colors, etc) to the class. Many students also added information about personalities and likes/dislikes, bringing a creative flair to the presentations.
