May 27 Elementary school visit

U of C students went to visit a nearby elementary school and shared the school lunch and afternoon together.   Elementary school students (Grade 6) were very enthusiastic and friendly and welcomed us very well.

Cultural Exchange Assembly






Self-Introduction in Japanese.  Everyone was so curious to know about our students.


Myles received a little hat as a present from a student.  It fit him very well!


Elementary school students taught us many things about Japanese culture, history, and local information.  Their research was well summerized and the level of their presentation was very high.
I think these elementary students were good models for their own presentation coming up (June 1)!!
If elementary students can do, university students can do.... more likely "should do better", right!?!?
