Chinese New Year and 100 day!

We have been busy this week learing about the Chinese New year. The students have been learning about Chinese customs surrounding the lunar new year celebration. This year is the year of the Tiger and we discussed which year each child was born. Children born in 2003 were born in the year of the Ram, 2004 were the year of the Monkey and 2005 were the Rooster.
Next week we will be celebrating the 100th Day of School! On Thursday February 4th students are encouraged to dress up as 100 year olds! We will also be collecting cannned goods toward a goal of 100 cans for the Capitol Area Food Bank. Check Thursday folders to learn more and see which ingredient we need your help bringing for our 100 Day snack!
Thanks!!!
Mr. Garland
