Chinese New Year



Chinese New Year came to kindergarten in a big way! First, we "swept out all the bad luck" by giving our room a deep clean. Then we threw out all our broken materials and refreshed our supplies with new crayons, markers, pencils and glue. Once we got our environment in order we decorated the classroom with lanterns.Thanks to Mrs. Chang-Lee we were able to feast on traditional Chinese candies, listen to popular Chinese musicians. Mrs. Zhang brought the coveted red envelopes with Chinese coins inside to bless our new year and fortune cookies! Some were lucky enough to look inside their envelopes and receive a special prize!

Much thanks to the families of Jessica and Justin for making sure we could share in this wonderful tradition!
