Bento in Japanese Classes!

Mr. Blackwelder's Japanese 5-6 classes are celebrating the end of the school year by designing and creating their own Japanese bento, or boxed lunch. Each lunch is the topic of an oral presentation which covers a "bento essentials" checklist including theme, number of food groups, wrapping, usage of color, shape, and positioning of food, asymmetry, inclusion of odd-numbered items (as odd numbers are lucky in Japan), etc.

Congrats to all 5-6 seniors on graduation!!
