# Second Grade Spends an Evening in Japan

[Yuli Vanegas & Shea Andriko](https://blog.moravianacademy.org/blog/author/yuli-vanegas-shea-andriko)

 May 27, 2022

If you strolled through the CE Auditorium on Monday evening, you would have thought you were in Japan!

![IMG_4412-2](https://blog.moravianacademy.org/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_4412-2.jpeg?width=208&name=IMG_4412-2.jpeg)The second-grade students hosted An Evening in Japan through a variety of cross-curricular activities. The evening began with a kimono parade where the students entered the auditorium wearing colorful kimonos while gently waving Japanese style fans.

From there, each student played an important role in our play of the Japanese Folktale Momotaro. Laughter was heard in the audience as the musicians, narrators, and actors worked together to tell the story.

![IMG_4406](https://blog.moravianacademy.org/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_4406.jpg?width=2923&name=IMG_4406.jpg)Next, each of our students chose a subject to talk about and they presented in individual stations. Topics ranged from sushi and tea ceremonies to tsunamis and volcanoes, just to name a few. The students shined while proudly showcasing their topics to the audience. The children were assertive and eager to tell all, and to show their artwork. To end our evening, Mr. Pomeroy used a seismograph to explain how earthquakes occur and Mr. Wallace led us through a song sung in both English and Japanese. 

![IMG_4416](https://blog.moravianacademy.org/hs-fs/hubfs/IMG_4416.jpeg?width=220&name=IMG_4416.jpeg)We incorporated science, art, and music into our social studies curriculum during our Japan unit of study. We are very lucky to be part of a great team of educators who made this cross curricular project fun, hands on, and memorable for all of our students. We express our gratitude to Mr. Elstein, Mr. Pomeroy, and Mr. Wallace for their invaluable contribution to the success of our event.

*“I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.”
