It's Chinese New Year in Room 132!
After reading about how to celebrate from several books and on some websites, we started our festivities.
First, we had to clean our class so we could start the new year fresh.
Then we decorated with flowers. Artificial ones stood in for the more traditional living flowers.
Then we made a giant dragon costume using a cardboard box, ribbon and bits of found objects.
Then we cut up some old sheets to make a looooooooong tail.
We took a break for lunch, and enjoyed some delicious dumplings. Thanks to Ethan's family for the treats!
Once the costume was finished, we grabbed some musical instruments and went on parade!
Gung hay fat choy!
