Japan Study Unit
Welcome to Japan, Land of the Rising Sun!
Get ready to make some iced matcha tea and roll your own sushi. Do you know why Japan has a big red dot on its flag? Hey, what is that large animal lurking in the river? And what on earth is forest bathing? We're going to explore these questions and lots more as we learn to identify some of Japan's major cities on a map and color some of Japan's national plants and animals. Try your hand at writing haiku and read through the Japanese book list. Take part in linocut printmaking at one of three possible skill levels and be inspired by linocut master Hokusai himself! There's so much waiting for you in this unit!
