Title: Kanji Resources
Body: From http://japanese.about.com About.com’s Namiko Abe recently created the, "Most Frequently Used Kanji" page (http://japanese.about.com/od/kan2/a/100kanji.htm?nl=1 ), which lists 50 of the most frequently used kanji in Japanese newspapers. Clicking the link of each kanji character will take you to a page where you can learn how to read and write it. If you want to learn more, the next 50 kanji are available at, "Most Frequently Used Kanji (2)" (http://japanese.about.com/od/kan2/a/100kanji2.htm ). I hope it will be helpful for beginners learning kanji. Learning kanji is probably one of the hardest parts of Japanese, but I think it will become fun once you start to recognize a few characters. "Kanji Land - Grade1" (http://japanese.about.com/library/blkodgrade1.htm )also lists 80 simple and basic kanji characters that are taught in grade 1.
