In the beginning of 2026, “Saginomiya Karuta (Card Game)”was played at the Sagimiya Japanese Language Classroom.
Sagimiya Karuta is a local karuta game, of which reading cards and picture cards were created by local residents. We finished the lesson early to enjoy playing ‘karuta’.
Eager to grab as many cards as possible, players gradually leaned forward. It was a positive sight not usually seen during Japanese lessons.
