As a grade level, students have been asked to take pictures of items that represent the history, geography and culture of Japan. We will be using these photos and comments to develop an understanding of how history and geography shape a culture.
Add comments or questions in English or Japanese in order to help us really develop a deeper understanding of Japan.

Japanese House
This is a house for playing a show that is funny. It could be hard to see because it is from the top but if you look in it is like a stage.

Lining up for Train at at Akihabara
Miss Salsa says...In Japan, unlike most countries, people actually line up to get on the train. In this way, getting on the train is a bit more organized. Of course, it seems no matter how full the train is sometimes, people still squish on. I wonder if there is some sort of limit to how many people can be on the train. Does anyone know?
