Let's welcome Yoko's mother in

[Greeting]

Thank you.

I am here to show you the

Japanese tea ceremony.

We call it chado, the way of

tea.

A Japanese tea ceremony is a

special way of making tea for

honoured guests.

Today, you are my honoured

guests.

We make tea in a special tea

room called a chashitsu.

Let's try saying that word, boys

and girls.

CHILDREN: Chashitsu.

Chashitsu.

I like that word.

I do too.

Today, Hilltop School is the

chashitsu.

It is decorated in the

traditional way with kakemono.

CHILDREN: Kakemono.

And chabana.

CHILDREN & MRS. JENKINS:

Chabana.

YOKO'S MOTHER: These flowers

are not arranged in any special

way.

They are kept simple.

Well done, Yoko.

You've made such lovely

decorations.

Thank you, Mrs. Jenkins.

We must first clean the

dishes and dry them for the

making of the tea called

Tamayo.

Hey, we clean and dry the

dishes every day at my house.

Yes.

The Japanese tea ceremony

reminds us that simple things

can be special when we pay

special attention to them.

We enjoy looking at the pretty

tea bowl.

CHILDREN: Ooh.

And we enjoy the bubbles

playing in the hot water.

CHILDREN: Wow.

TIMOTHY: Interesting.
