We've spent the last two days at the Gunma Kokusai Academy in Ohta, at a teaching conference. This morning I taught a two-hour lesson to 6-8th grade students on acids, bases, and serial dilution. The students are all volunteers who came on their summer vacation to learn more science. They were quiet, but wonderful to teach. All of them were more than willing to give "American style" lessons a try, and they gave very sweet feedback about how much fun they had and how much they learned. Tomorrow we're off to Nikko for sightseeing and cooler weather (and hopefully no more earthquakes!).
