Kodomo no Hi in Japanese Classes
Mr. Blackwelder's students learned about May 5th, Kodomo no Hi (Children's Day),
on Monday and Tuesday of this week. The significance of carp streamers, the
legend of Kintaro the Nature Boy, and a special food (Kashiwa Mochi - mochi
wrapped in oak leaves symbolizing strength) were shared and discussed. The hope
for strength in growing children and young adults, a central theme of Kodomo no
Hi, couldn't have come at a better time. We are now in AP season!
