Day 70: March 11, 2010

Journey to Japan (without leaving home)


Today's photo is a bit of a cheat as I didn't take it today.  Today was a crazy busy day involving incomplete car repair, a fog delay and various and sundry other annoyances.  This is a picture of what our school library (half of it, anyway) looked like for Right to Read Week: Journey to Japan.  Our librarian does a phenomenal job of decorating for the theme each year.  I (and a couple of others) taught a bunch of students how to fold origami paper cranes and they were strung up and hung from the ceiling, which really added to the overall feel.  The students all got to participate in a Japanese Tea Ceremony at the low table, and there were Japanese-themed activities all week, including a visit from a local Sushi chef at lunch one day.

Most of my photos from the week were of students, and I won't post those without permission from parents, so you're stuck with static shots.  Below is a close-up shot of some of the origami cranes.
