Samurai Students, 3-5 grade students who participate in the Japanese Culture Club at Shady Grove, have had a busy month! Students have either been part of the kousaku no guruupu (craft's group) or uta no guruupu (song group). Students in the craft group have made all of the decorations for Japan Night, including the posters to advertise the event (see poster below!), maps of Japan, Japanese paper lanterns, and Japanese cherry blossom flowers (see photo on left). Students in the song group have been working on a dance and song from the Japanese movie Totoro that they will perform on Japan Night. Join us on Thursday, October 24th, 2013 from 6:30 - 7:30 in the Shady Grove Elementary Cafeteria for a night of Japanese culture, crafts and performances!!
