By the way, one of the things the teacher will share on the day is about the garbage problem.3R"This is an initiative called

 

What is "3R"?It is an acronym for Reduce (reduce waste), Reuse (use repeatedly), and Recycle (reuse as a resource).

 

It is also used in Japan, but to be honest, you don't hear about it very often. Just,A universal language that is taken for granted in other countriesIt is. They will learn about such 3R efforts overseas.

By being able to learn about foreign initiatives,Comparison of good and bad aspects of Japan and other countrieswill be able to do so.

 

Once we are able to do such things, we will be able to take advantage of such initiatives in other countries and try to do the same in Japan, taking advantage of the ideas. This will lead to further exploration, such as

And not only that, but this time,Make a "recycling car" with Lego programming,[Solution.work (e.g. of art)I'm going to try it.We also do this.

Not only can you learn about programming,The experience of "giving shape to your child's idea" will be a big plus in his or her future school life.

 

At the end of the program, the participants are asked to summarize what they have learned in one poster and present it in English in front of the whole group.

 

In addition to learning input, the program also provides outputs such as LEGO programming and English presentations to consolidate the knowledge learned and stimulate further interest.
