Nagano Milky Way: Countries around the world

Hello everyone! We have started our exploration on different countries around the world through creating our world map, the kids worked together to put up a huge world map puzzle. We also learned about the continents and some countries in Asia. We noticed that our world is so big, and water covered most parts of the world! For parents, thank you for supporting the lesson through the geographic books! Our kids were grateful to used and learned them for this week!

When we were talking about the UOI, one of the kids was interested in sharing his favorite lunch and we talked about it in details. We discussed the origin of the food and surprised that most of the foods were not from Japan! Therefore, we will take this opportunity in this long weekend to have our kids to taste both local and international foods with their parents. Please do support your kids in their homework and enjoy the foods!

We went to a park with magnificent view and had great lunch and activities time with everyone this week! We also learned about how people protect the park through numbers of drainage tunnels at the park. The weather was great and we loved the time spending together there.

For phonics, these are the videos for the review, please watch them together with your kids at home.

Thank you for reading and have a wonderful long weekend!
