Calligraphy at Kodomo School
The power to write is the power to think.
Correct posture and stroke order, and tome, hane and harai (the stops, hooks and sweeps of each stroke). Children learn both brush writing and pencil handwriting, and the time spent carefully studying the model builds neat handwriting and a calm mind. They can also work on their school handwriting assignments. Brush-writing grade exams (kyu and dan) can be taken at the classroom they usually attend (there are no exams for pencil handwriting).
