<span style="background-color: #93c47d; color: #cc0000;">Surprisingly!</span></div>
Children in year 4 found out similarities between the UK and Japan about traditional clothes.<br />
Traditional Japanese clothes is called Kimonos and traditional Scottish clothes is called the Kilt.<br />
The occasion of wearing traditional clothes are the same!<br />
-Weddings<br />
-Celebrations<br />
-Doing some traditional things<br />
-Play traditional musical instruments such as bagpipes in Scotland and "koto" in Japan<br />
-Traditional dance such as Highland Dancing in Scotland and "Nihon Buyo" in Japan<br />
<br />
Basically the culture between two countries- the UK and Japan- is completely different, so people seem to tend to look at the side of differences.<br />
However, every culture has some similarities, I would like children to find out similarities in culture to understand each other.<br />
<br />
<br />
At the end of the lesson, a teacher and a child in year 3 wore "Yukata" which is a casual kimono for summer!<br />
They look really beautiful, don't they?<br />

<span style="background-color: #b6d7a8; color: orange;">Have a go! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"A cup and ball" is called "Ken-Dama" in Japanese.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Children in year 3 had a go to play with "Ken-Dama". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The goal is to swing the ball into the air and catch it in a cup or on the pointed end of the stick.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They tried to catch a ball with a cup, but the ball didn't go into a cup....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Children like challenges! They also tried other traditional Japanese toys such as " Ote-Dama" which means beans bags and "Kami-Fu-sen" which means paper balloons.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They seemed to enjoyed it!</div>

It seemed challenging for children to use chopsticks. However They really loved to eat!</div>

Eating with fingers is easy though, it became a good experience for children to use chopsticks!</div>
