Chuo-ku, where children learn, Part 2 "Jr. Chuo-ku Culture and History Zukan"
This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.♪
Continuing from last time,
"How do children learn about Chuo-ku?"
I would like to introduce a book that you can touch on.
This time, we will introduce "Jr. Chuo-ku Culture and History Zukan".
What is "Jr. Chuo-ku Culture and History Zukan"?
This book was issued by the Chuo Ward Kyobashi Library in March 2013.
The history and culture of Chuo-ku are introduced in great detail in a way that can be superimposed with Japanese history.
As an image ... From "Our Chuo-ku" introduced last time,
Is it as if you were going to dig deeper into the content?
As an editorial policy, the main target seems to be "elementary school upper grades".

The content is quite varied!
It's important.
A total of 264 pages. It is a picture book with a lot of contents of A4 size.
In the sixth grade of elementary school, I think that you will mainly learn about Japanese history.
Based on that, the first half will feature the characteristics of each era and the things and people related to Chuo-ku as a set.
Of course, it also covers detailed events related to Chuo-ku.
Some things that are not listed in the official text of the tourism certification are also listed here.
・・Thanks to you, I learned a lot.
(Theory that correspondents are told that they only studied in official texts (high sweat))
For example,...
"Let's look at the stage of Kabuki" ... A detailed explanation of what the stage mechanism is going on. Plus, it also touches on the history of the building of Kabukiza, which is now the fifth generation.
"Let's go to the factory!" ・・ ・ From the early Meiji era to the mid-Meiji era, there were seven "Kanbo Plants" in the former Kyobashi Ward. It is a place where one building was partitioned into a small room and rented to various merchants and operated, but the situation is explained in a spread.
"Hamarikyu, which preserves the shape of the Edo period" ... Introduces events and events that occurred during the Edo period (such as stories where elephants were kept here) along with illustrations maps. ・I’ve never heard of the “Cattle”!
In the second half, the characteristics of the current area and the highlights of the city (many of which have also appeared in the official text of the tourism certification) are introduced.
It also introduces the state of elementary schools in each region and the history of each school.
It is a very interesting place for the child-raising generation (or the generation with children who will go to elementary school in the future).
Chuo-ku has a special school system. There is also a pattern of going to school outside of the local elementary school.
(Please refer to the information on the Chuo-ku website for the specially-approved school system.)
I found it useful to know the characteristics of the school that I could attend (laughs).
You can check the contents not only at the municipal library but also on the website!
Okay, I've got to go to the municipal library.
・・I think you guys.
Actually, what is it?
The content of this book is published on the Internet in a considerable proportion.
http://www.library.city.chuo.tokyo.jp/kidstimes?15
There are some pages that are not disclosed.
(Mainly the introduction of municipal elementary schools. There are quite a lot of children's faces ... so it's natural to lie down. )
You can understand a lot of content.
Even so, everyone who says that it is easier to read it properly in the form of a "book".
Please be assured.
We also have three municipal libraries.
In addition, not one book per house, but a considerable amount.
So, can you get a lot of chances of lending right away? I think.
I hope you can pick it up with "Our Chuo-ku"! !
