End of the Line

This week was our end of class party.  There were people from both classes enjoying the activites. 

We had chopsticks and small cookies to practice with, which was a big hit.  One of the students also brought in some cherry blossom tea from Japan.  It tasted wonderful! 

I had a small display with information set up.  It included items I had picked up or made while I was in Japan.










The origami session kept everyone busy until the end of the party.  There were lots of cranes by the time we finished.
