I hope you all had a wonderful time over the break? Now it's a NEW quarter, a NEW semester, and a NEW year! We are going to use a traditional Japanese culture to set our goals for 2016!
Have you ever heard of a Daruma Doll? This is what it looks like:
 |
| This is Daruma. When you set a goal, you color in ONE of his eyes. When you achieve your goal, you color in the other eye. |
As you can see, each color has a different meaning. For example, the RED Daruma is for luck and good fortune. It is also the most common of all the daruma dolls. I will bring my doll to share with you tomorrow. Today's blog assignment deals with having you share your goal or goals for the NEW YEAR!
Take a moment to think about what you want to accomplish in the new year. When you think of something, go ahead and submit it in the comment section. Please think of a goal that is somewhat challenging for you. It could be an academic goal, or something you would like to improve on in your life at home or at school.
I look forward to reading about your goal or goals for 2016!
Aloha,
Mrs. Wong
