The Kanji Museum

/ 日本語科ブログ

For today’s field trip, we went to the Kanji Museum.

There are many different exhibits.
How do you write the names of various countries in kanji? Press the hanko (stamp) to find out!
  • Using kanji stamps, the AKPers wrote their own names.
  • Transform! Some AKPers became people in kimono…
  • …while some became ninja.
Everyone was deeply interested in Japanese money from the past. There’s kanji written there too.
  • Students also participated in a workshop to make hanko out of erasers.
  • They used a kanji that they liked for their hanko. This was done so well!
  • Next, they attempted the kanji for “water” in calligraphy.
  • “Sensei, you’re so good!”
Let’s try to write a kanji that you’d like to write next time. What a very fun day!
