I agree with Eujeeen in teaching our students to sing and to speak in Korean, she was explaining that learning Korean is easy ad we just need to familiarize with the symbols and the sounds, and adapt/adopt them into the ABCs.
Visiting the Korean center was definitely a fabulous experience that I would like to share with my students! I enjoyed the expertise of both docents at each site. On the Korean Center I rally would like my students to raise their awareness about East Asian cultures: their religion, social and economical structures, and to appreciate how much the countries enclosed in Asia are growing economical and how this impacts our life style and local economy in the United States. I want my students to wow when they visit the virtual trips to various cities in Korea and admire the grandiosity of the ecosystems, infrastructure, the architecture, and the social environment that people who live there enjoy.
The Getty was an out of this world experience, the section with the scrolls, the paintings, the sculptures of the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas was a truly religious experience that I would like to share with my students at the end of this month. I hope the exhibit is still there where I finish my lesson on East Asia.

I will use the scrolls as a project so they can describe stories on one side of the papyrus while the pictures re depicted on the other side. A great way to help students retain information in a learning by doing activity about historical aspects of Buddhism and its relevance in Hindu Asian cultures.
