The 5th international education program in Yamazaki elementary school was held on October 23 (Fri), 2009.
Three lecturers (a Chinese, a Peruvian and a Malaysian) were invited to teach 5th graders (70 schoolchildren).

Malaysia

Showing the map, the lecturer introduced
Malaysian culture, language and industry to the schoolchildren.

“We have a mild climate throughout the year in Malaysia.”
“There are many Japanese companies in Malaysia.”
Last of all, they sang together in chorus in Malaysian language.

It was a happy time.

China

The lecturer introduced Chinese culture, the geography of China
and special features of Hong Kong to the schoolchildren.
They were wondered at the vastness of China.
“What is this Chinese kanji?” They enjoyed a Kanji quiz game.

Peru

The lecturer started introduction of Peru by asking
“Do you know the Inca Empire?”
“Peru is on the opposite side of the earth from Japan.”
Putting on Peruvian costume and toys,
the schoolchildren were taken commemorative picture.
It was a good memory of the program.
