Happy Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year Idea


I had lots of plans for the Chinese New Year however; we have had so many days off of school because of cold weather I have had to pick and choose what was important.  So I really did not get to everything I wanted to do. 

I read several good books about the Chinese New Year but these were our favorites:

Lion Dancer 


Zen Shorts

The Chinese New Year
 


Tikki Tikki Tembo





Then we made Chinese Lanterns to hang up in our classroom.  

  We tried to write Chinese numbers on our lanterns.  We had a speaker from the local Chinese restaurant to explain paper cutting to us.  She gave each child a fortune cookie.  They loved that.
