Traditional Japanese Toys - What is a kendama? What about a tako? (No, it is not Mexican food!) Students will discover some traditional Japanese toys, and learn how to talk about them in simple sentences.
 * Grades 1 & 2**

What time is it? We need to make sure everyone can tell the time in English, then we will revise our Japanese numbers, learn how to say "o'clock" and "half past", and then they will learn how to tell the time in Japanese!
 * Grades 3 & 4**

Grade 5 & 6 students will be learning the new common Level 4 program that six primary schools in the area will be doing together. As students will have 2 hours of Japanese per week, this will include going over the basics, as well as projects with our sister schools in Japan, and extension, "catch up" and "areas of interest" groups.
