Kinyoubi No Rokunin (The 6 On Friday)

I took The 6 into the heart of downtown Tokyo to go to a huge exhibition, Treasures of the Romanovs and Russia. There were lots of precious objects from the Russian Orthodox church. The children had never studied Russian history before and didn’t know anything about the Russian Orthodox, so it was an amazing experience for them. They stared with open mouths at the wealth of gold used in everything they saw and were utterly horrified by the idolatrous icons.

After going through the museum, we ate and studied for 2 hours at McDonalds. Just another week or two and they will have completed their study of English grammar. They will then be on their way to a rigourous reading program.

Leave your mark.
