Kimonos  Lesson by Davonte Robertson

This was a fun lesson which talked about Japanese culture, kimonos and symmetry. We talked about how the kimono is made specifically for the person wearing it. We used two sheets of construction paper and folded them into our kimono. Once it was symmetrical then we began painting our designs which we had practiced before. We were also required to use two primary colors and a secondary colors.
As another angle to talking about Japan, you could talk about geography and where Japan is located. Other ideas on how to incorporate this into another activity you could also talk about their writing.
