DAY 13: 2/26 (Tues.)

Visit Mark Twain Elementary
School
We spent the whole day visiting Mark Twain Elementary School near the study center. We met so many children from the kindergarten classes to the 5th grade classes. The children from 15 different classrooms joined our visit, which means we met at least 350 children that day.
We taught the children how to count from one to ten in Japanese, and the children asked us some questions about Japan in return. We also enjoyed showing the children how to spell their names in Japanese katakana.
The children were all so nice and cute that we had a very good time all day. We enjoyed having lunch with the children as well as playing with them during the recess. We were surprised that many children were smart in class and very active during the recess.
We were totally exhausted by the time we left the school, but our visit was totally successful. Great job!
We received many Thank-You-Letters from the
children several days later. Thank you, everyone!
