Koinobori are flown on the 5th May every year.











An idea:

Draw a simple koi outline and students colour the fish. You can staple the fish around the classroom for Kodomo no Hi, Children’s Day, on the 5th May. 


This student did a colour pencil job with a bit of crayon work and it has decorated the wall of the classroom very well. However, one student really went on a mission with gold and red cardboard doing both sides. This koi now has pride of place on the “washing line” in my classroom.

Hello? もしもし

Learning another language is a challenge…

But paying attention to sound, pronunciation, good listening skills and above all patience will help.

Always assume the other person might understand what you are saying, but not know your language…
