Nagano Aurora – We live in Japan! (October 16th-20th)

Hello everyone!

We had another fun week singing Halloween songs, learning about countries, playing at the park, and having a fun swimming lesson.

Swimming lesson

Kids are always excited about going to our swimming lessons. They enjoyed the different activities in the water. During one of the activities, the children were challenged to submerge their heads underwater. It was great to see everyone giving their best efforts!

Park

The weather was nice and sunny as we played in the park. The kids started digging for rocks in the dirt using sticks. They were on an adventure looking for treasure!

UOI3 – Where do we live?

We moved on from learning about planets and on to learning about countries! It was so interesting seeing our students as we took a look at some of the different countries and their cultures. Of course, being from Norway, I taught the kids about Norway Constitution Day. We watched a video of the children’s parade as they walked past and waved to the Norwegian royal family.

We also colored a world map and circled Japan. Our curious students are begging to get a feel for how big our world is.
