Japanese Architecture

The reading for this session and the beautiful photographs really brought architecture to life for me in a way I have not really encountered it before.  I am trying to think of a way to capture this feeling to use in my elementary classroom.  I am not sure if I should just use some of these same images of Japanese architecture over time and see what the images evoke for my students, or if I should have them look at American architecture in a new way.  I look forward to the session itself to see if any ideas come to me!
