At JII, we hold the "Hanamaru Class" every other Saturday to support learning, including Japanese, for children with foreign roots. On Saturday, May 10, the "Hanamaru Class" featured a special event: a craft workshop themed around the hugely popular picture book "The Very Hungry Caterpillar"!
Once again, many children joined us, making it a lively and enjoyable time.
The guide this time was Mr. Y, a volunteer from the Otonari-san Family Friend Program (OFP) and a former teacher. The teaching materials prepared by Mr. Y were thoughtfully designed down to the details such as colors and shapes, wonderfully drawing out the children's desire to "try making it!" ✨
Before starting the craft activity, the volunteers received instructions from Mr. Y on how to proceed. They carefully guided each child in charge, using a mix of English and Japanese. Thanks to their support, everyone was able to focus and enjoy creating their projects with big smiles 😊✂️🎨
Each completed caterpillar was full of personality and absolutely adorable 💚
It was a heartwarming moment, as if the world of picture books unfolded right before our eyes.
Thank you to everyone who joined us!
The next "Hanamaru Class" will return to the regular schedule and will be held on May 24, June 7, and June 21 🌈 We look forward to continuing our fun Japanese lessons, so stay tuned! ♪
