Chinese New Year

The students have been learning about Chinese New Year this past week.  We learned that 2014 is the Year of the Horse.  We learned that fireworks and the color red scare off bad luck.  Chinese New Year goes for 15 days, and ends with a parade and lantern launch.  

To celebrate Chinese New Year, the kids made their own lanterns.  Each student's lantern has a picture of a horse on it.  The kids had fun leaning about a different culture and making their lanterns.
