SLJ Lesson 1

Japan

 For the Summer Learning Lesson we had to choose a country to study on. I chose Japan! Japan’s Capital City is called Tokyo. It is also one of the main cities in Japan. There are 5 main cities in Japan which are Tokyo(Capital), Kyoto, Hiroshima, Sendai and Osaka.

 Japan is one of the countries in the Pacific Ocean. Japan is located to the east of Russia, China and Korea. Japan’s population is 127.1Million. Most people in Japan speak Japanese since it’s their official language. Their money currency is called a Yen [JPY]. Some relating population/Subgroup are Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Filipino, Brazilian Vietnamese and other.

 Some of Japan’s national sports are Sumo wrestling, Baseball, Football(Soccer), Judo, Karate, Kendo. Japan’s National Icons are The Cherry blossom tree, Koi Fish, The red-crowned crane(Bird) The lychee fruit. Tokyo’s temperature in January is 10° / 2°. It is the start of winter on December all through February. Tokyo is in the middle part of Japan. The most commonly spoken language spoken in Tokyo is Japanese.

 Did you know that Japan has 6,852 islands? Also due to the gases produced by power plants, Japan sometimes suffer from Acid Rain. I would love to go to Japan because of their Cherry Blossoms and their foods like Ramen and Sushi.
