2R Taiko!

As part of our unit of inquiry People can be enriched by their own cultures and the cultures they connect with throughout their lives, second grade have had the opportunity to collaborate and get a taste of many of the programs at YIS’s International Center for Japanese Culture. Check out earlier posts for details on our experiences with Japanese Calligraphy, Dance, Sushi-Making and more. This week we were invited for a taste of Taiko drumming. Enjoy our mini video-slideshow!
