Konnichiwa.

So much has been happening in Japanese this term. Students in grades 3-6 have been learning the hiragana alphabet. Many students achieved their Green Belt, and received a certificate at assembly. To achieve the Green Belt, a student must be able to confidently recognize all 46 hiragana characters. 

The following students received their Green Belt Certificate.

Well done to all students who have worked hard to improve their understanding of the hiragana alphabet this term.

Students in 1/2 have been learning about Pets. They have really challenged themselves to learn new words, match the word in hiragana with the picture and used bottle caps and play dough to shape some of the words.

Foundation students have been learning to count in Japanese and to recognize the numbers written in kanji. They also had fun using play dough to shape some of the numbers. 

Well done everyone, a fabulous Term of learning in Japanese.
