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.
