Picking Mikan and Making New Friends

This week 4th graders had the opportunity to travel to Miura Nature House of Seisen Kamakura to meet fourth graders from Seisen Kamakura. The clouds gave way and the sun came out creating a beautiful rainbow that greeted us as we arrived at the nature center.






Seisen Kamakura fourth graders greeted us and we paired off into groups. We walked with our new friends to enjoy some mikan picking. 



                    

After eating lunch and our freshly picked mikan, the Seisen Kamakura fourth graders led us in some tradition Japanese dances and games. 

What was your favorite part about our field trip?

Urielle- Picking mikan with our groups.

Sono- I liked playing the game "Let's Go Hunting" "Mouju Gari."

Seorin- I liked the the traditional dance (bonn odori) best.
