I saw those sticker dolls when we were studying S. Korea. Sadly, at my boys ages, they would probably not be happy with me making them a part of our study. None the less, we loved our Korea study!! One of our favorite things was a trip to a local Korean Market. Those fans turned out beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat does sound like fun! Thank you. They had fun making them.
DeleteWhat?!?! Didn't you guys eat Kimchi?? What Korea unit is complete without that garlicish treat?!?!? LOL
ReplyDeleteYou remember where I live, right? Did you see a Korean market on the way into town? There was a recipe in our book that had us putting watermelon into ginger ale, but I just never made it to the store. Maybe I'll pick those up when I go get the dead fish for our fish painting from Japan this week.
DeleteK, The only person in our family that will eat kimchi is the only one that is not Korean. ;)
DeletePam, I started following your blog seeing it on WTM or something. Or maybe I saw it on Teaching Stars. Anyway, you posted some great resources. I'm using Home Art Studio, too, and can't wait to get to the Korean Fan lesson someday!
