Then read Chapter 1 of the NIE Asian New Year article series, printed on Jan. 30, 2015 on Korean New Year celebrations. 1. What is your favorite celebration? 2. Why do you and/or your family celebrate this occasion? 3. What types of activities happen for this celebration? 4. Are there any special foods that are a part of this celebration? 5. People whose families, parents, grandparents, or ancestors have come to the United States from Korea are called Korean Americans. Can you find Korea on a map of the world? Read chapter 1 on Korean New Year from Jan. 30, 2015 Post-Reading Discussion and Activities We learned about Korean New Year and how it is celebrated in the United States by Korean Americans. 1. When do most Korean Americans celebrate New Year’s Day? 2. What types of activities happen on New Year’s Day for Korean Americans? 3. What is one of the most important aspects of New Year’s for Korean Americans? 4. What do children often get after they do the “sebae” (or formal bow) to their elders? 5. What does your family do to celebrate the New Year? To learn more about Korean Americans, here is a book list compiled by Benling Wong, a librarian for the Seattle Public Library system. Korean American children’s books “Clara Lee and the Apple Pie” Dream by Jenny Han “Cooper’s Lesson” by Sun Yung Shin “Dear Juno” by Soyung Pak “Good-bye, 382 Shin Dang Dong” by Frances Park “The Name Jar” by Yangsook Choi “Project Mulberry” by Linda Sue Park “Tall Boy’s Journey” by Joanna Halpert Kraus Korean American teen books “The Fold” by Na An “Good Enough” by Paula Yoo “Necessary Roughness” by Marie G. Lee “Slant” by Laura E. Williams “Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before” by David Yoo 3 LESSON 1: CULTURAL TIES TO FOOD SECTION 2 Activities in this section were written for grades 4–9. Use Chapter 2 from the 2012 NIE Asian New Year article series with this lesson. In Chapter 2, students learn about celebrating New Year’s through the eyes of Jay J. Koh, who was born in Korea and moved with his family to America when he was a child. This chapter focuses on food and how it’s strongly connected to family and cultural celebrations. Food can be seen as a “family tree” of delicious cuisine, an important legacy of food that can be passed down from one generation to the next, connecting the past and present. Pre-Reading Discussion Please create a worksheet with the following questions and appropriate space for student answers. Have students take 10–15 minutes to write a journal entry for the following questions: 1. In your own family traditions, when are special meals prepared for close family and friends? What do you remember about the meal(s) you had during these events? What made them extra special? 2. Food is powerful. It brings people together, connects cultures, ethnic identities and good memories. What are the smells in your family’s kitchen that bring back the most memories? Why? 3. Write a list of “All-American” foods? Why are they connected to being American (for example, hot dogs at a baseball game)? 4. Why are family and food connected? 5. What are your favorite family foods? Are they made frequently, or are they prepared only on special occasions? Are they connected to your culture? 6. Are there any special recipes that have been passed down from elders in your family? What are they? 7. Interview a family member about what they remember about the special foods they ate when they were young. • What smells can they still remember? • What were their favorite foods that were prepared? • Did they bring that tradition to their own family and continue to have these same foods in their home now? Why or why not? Compare and Contrast Activity Please make a worksheet with a graph labeled: New Year’s Cultural Cuisine Comparison Chart with separate graphs for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Cambodian and My Own Cultural Foods—with space to list the different foods and what traditions and symbols the food has, if any. Review the three articles from 2012 posted at seattletimes.com/nie so that you will be able to fill out the graph for the different ethnic groups. *This information references the 2012 series of Friday, Jan 13: Chinese/Japanese New Year story; Friday, Jan 20: Korean New Year story; and Monday, Jan 23: Cambodian New Year story. Chinese Children are given pieces of candy as soon as they wake up on New Year’s Day (so they have sweet things to say in the New Year). Chinese pastries and jai are also among the traditional foods of New Year’s. Other traditional foods are: • Mustard greens for long life • Whole chicken symbolizing wealth for the whole family • Fish balls, shrimp balls and meat balls for success in educational pursuits 4 LESSON 1: CULTURAL TIES TO FOOD Japanese In the Japanese culture, people get together to pound mochi in preparation for the New Year and eat mochi soup (eaten with kamaboko or fish cake) on New Year’s morning. Other traditional foods are: • Sake, juubako zume, beans for good health, fish roe for prosperity, dried squid for happiness Korean Fruit, hangwa (a traditional Korean snack), ttokkuk (rice cake soup), galbijjim (rib stew), japchae (noodles with meat and vegetables), Korean-style pancakes, and various types of fish and wild vegetables are all prepared for Korean New Year’s celebrations. Rice sweets filled with black and sweet bean and sweet sesame fillings are also eaten for New Year’s. “First of all, you have to eat ttokkkuk, ttok is the rice cake and kuk is the soup. You have to eat this rice cake soup in order to age one year.” Cambodian “One of the special foods, onsom, is sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves and tied with string.” Another is a fried dough called ginger dessert. For lack of translation, there are also fried cookies called nom kgnay. These sugar-glazed cookies are made from rice flower in the shape of ginger root—they have no ginger inside. For the main meal, there are typically five or more dishes that are made to share with families. One is a noodle dish called chha masseur. Chha masseur is fried clear noodles with different kinds of mushrooms, onion, rehydrated banana flowers, ground pork, seasoning and topped with cilantro. Other dishes include: different varieties of Cambodian soups with a medley of vegetables, herbs and proteins; broiled and salted dehydrated fish; marinated grilled chicken, and of course, steamed jasmine rice. As Phala Chea’s family grew over the years into a bigger extended family, each of them was assigned to bring a couple of dishes to the family potluck.

  • Japanese New Year
    Japanese New Year New Year (shogatsu or oshogatsu) is the most important holiday in Japan. Most businesses shut down from January 1 to January 3, and families typically gather to spend the days together. Years are traditionally viewed as completely separate, with each new year providing a fresh start. Consequently, all duties are supposed to be completed by the end of the year, while bonenkai parties ("year forgetting parties") are held with the purpose of leaving the old year's worries and troubles behind. Homes and entrance gates are decorated with ornaments made of pine, bamboo and plum trees, and clothes and houses are cleaned. On New Year's eve, toshikoshi soba (buckwheat noodles), symbolizing longevity, are served. A more recent custom is watching the music show "kohaku uta gassen", a highly popular television program featuring many of Japan's most famous J-pop and enka singers in spectacular performances. January 1 is a very auspicious day, best started by viewing the new year's first sunrise (hatsu-hinode), and traditionally believed to be representative for the whole year that has just commenced. Therefore, the day is supposed be full of joy and free of stress and anger, while everything should be clean and no work should be done. It is a tradition to visit a shrine or temple during shogatsu (hatsumode). The most popular temples and shrines, such as Tokyo's Meiji Shrine, attract several million people during the three days. Most impressive are such visits at the actual turn of the year, when large temple bells are rung at midnight.

  • Chinese Or Lunar New Year
    Teaching About Lunar New Year Dr. Margaret Hill Chinese New Year, or Spring Festival, falls on the first day of the first month of the new lunisolar calendar each year. The Lantern Festival that falls on the fifteenth day brings an end to the New Year season, though for China and other Asian countries, Spring Festival is a week-long holiday. Across Asian cultures that use the lunisolar calendar, it may be referred to simply as Lunar New Year. In Korean culture, for example, the holiday is called Seollal or simply Korean New Year and falls on the same date as Chinese New Year, and likewise with the Vietnamese Tet holiday, or Vietnamese New Year. (Since 1873, Japan has followed the same Gregorian calendar followed by the United States, and Japanese New Year, or Oshogatsu, falls on January 1 each year.) Lunar New Year Dates The lunisolar calendar is based on astronomical observations of Chinese Zodiac Year Date the sun's longitude and the moon's phases. Though shrouded in Animal Sign history, some scholars believe that the Chinese emperor Huangdi 2019 February 5 Pig introduced the calendar somewhere between 2500 to 3000 BCE. 2020 January 25 Rat 2021 February 12 Ox Other Asian cultures have used the lunisolar calendar nearly as long as in China. The calendar is used to determine festivals, so the dates of these festivals vary each year. At home, many Chinese Americans celebrate by burning incense, doing special prayers, and making offerings to ancestors and traditional gods. The celebrations of Chinese New Year are diverse, reflecting various ethnic customs and the combined influences of Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and Chinese folk religions.

  • O-Shogatsu Teaching Resources
    Five College Center for East Asian Studies O-Shogatsu: Japanese New Year Traditions Explained Curriculum Resources Erika Guckenberger, Seventh Grade Social Studies Teacher McCall Middle School Winchester, Massachusetts These resources and lesson plan suggestions were assembled to accompany the FCCEAS webinar on O-Shogatsu (Japanese New Year). Depending on the level and age of the students you teach, you may find some ideas and materials more relevant to your teaching than others. Please use your imagination to adapt these ideas as necessary to fit your needs. Celebrate the New Year in your classroom the Japanese way! Of course, you should begin by engaging your students’ help to give the classroom a thorough cleaning from top to bottom (oosooji in Japanese). Then you can choose among these traditional O-Shogatsu preparations and festivities: Decorate your classroom with Kadomatsu. Directions can be found online for making a traditional kadomatsu, including bamboo, pine and plum branches. If this is too ambitious, try this YouTube tutorial instead, which provides directions for making origami kadomatsu. Set goals for the new year by making Daruma dolls. Daruma dolls are traditionally bought and painted during O-Shogatsu,, as a way of focusing one’s attention on goals to be achieved in the new year. At the time the goal is set, one eye of the doll is painted; the other is left unpainted until the goal is achieved. Oberlin’s Allen Memorial Art Museum has posted a lesson plan for teaching about the daruma tradition and making daruma dolls with students. The lesson plan includes directions for both paper and “model magic” versions.
