Chinese New Year and Other Celebrations

We have been using technology to help us learn about celebrations that we previously didn't know much about.  Students have shown a lot of improvement in their ability to locate and record key information about a topic.
Everyone learned about Chinese New Year.  Ask your child to tell you some of the important facts about this celebration.
Students also worked with a partner to learn about another interesting celebration.
We have noticed that many celebrations have similar traditions.  We know that most celebrations involve special foods and decorations/symbols.
We look forward to learning more about different celebrations as our school year continues!
