Learning Yin-Yang with Weather Stickers

YIN-YANG: 阴 (yīn / cloudy) and 阳 (yáng / light, sunny), two opposing yet complementary and interdependent forces of nature.  阴阳 is most commonly know in the Western world by the ☯ symbol. 

Today we focused on the weather meaning of each character and placed stickers in stroke order.  Eventually, we will delve into the symbolism of 阴阳 – feminine versus masculine, negative versus positive, etc. 

What to do:

  1. Print 阴 on blue paper and 阳 on yellow paper
  2. Draw a cloud above 阴 and the sun above 阳 with puffy paint.
  3. Affix cloud stickers to 阴 character and sun stickers to 阳 character
