Japan -The Kokeshi project...Part One

A long standing Japanese tradition is the one of the Kokeshi. Today we started ur project with discussion and paper art. Each member of the class designed their own Kokeshi with original detail and colour.

There were a few ninja kokeshis too!

You can see the finished collection in Part Two of this project...

Japan- Interpretive Art

A fun project is listening to music and watching the class respond with movement, with art, with anything!

While we were studying Japan as a theme, we listened to some J-Pop music,

...and some Okinawan folk music. Everyone's reactions were different but all were colourful and very enjoyable.
