Oahyou! (‘o-hi-o’) おはよう (That is Japanese for “Good Morning”)

What an exciting week we had! We finished our board games, had a game day, and took our quiz on China. This week we are starting our new country, two countries in fact, Japan and Korea. These two countries have similar cultures and geographies. Their histories have also been interlinked in intense ways throughout history.

DO NOW: As a group, look at the picture on the board and answer the following question:

Have the recorder write down at least 5 things.
