Chinese New Year

I am so sorry for my lack of blogging lately. Things have been so hectic this month I have had to take a little break from the blog. But, I'm back and ready for 2014!

Today we celebrated Chinese New Year with a parade around the school. The kiddos had a BLAST!! We have been talking about different cultures and traditions in social studies so this was the perfect end to our week.

Students made a mask to represent the animal of the year they were born . Students were either rats (very cute ones!) or pigs. Our fabulous art club and art teacher made the AMAZING lion and dragon heads.

Here are some pictures from the day:

All the other grades came out to watch and cheer us on!



Almost back!

We had such a great time today and loved learning about the Chinese culture. 


Thanks for stopping by, I hope you have a a wonderful Friday!
