Lunar New Year - Year of the Dragon 🐉

Hi mamas,

We had a great time celebrating Lunar New Year, the Year Of The Dragon! 🐲

Learning about Lunar New Year is always a favorite among students!

Using all our senses, students read, wrote, and learned all about rich traditions and customs!

Multi-sensory learning at its best!

Students enjoyed eating long noodles for a long life, oranges for a sweet life, making paper lanterns, and receiving Hong Baos “lucky money” for a prosperous year. 🥡🥢

We wrapped up Lunar New Year with our Asian Brushstroke bamboo art lesson.

We immersed ourselves in Yo Yo Ma’s music to inspire our creativity! ❤️

Our students learned about the ancient Japanese art of calligraphy, and we used black ink of our own to create beautiful bamboo brushstrokes just like the Japanese masters themselves. 🎋

The tiny sprouts growing out of the bamboo represents new life as a sign of spring- the meaning of the Lunar New Year festival! 🎉
