This week we have been finding out about Chinese New Year! We watched a shadow puppet story explaining the animal race used to determine the sequence of years in the Chinese Zodiac. This year will be the Year of the Snake! The children at the start of the week each decorated a paper plate which we joined together to make a long snake, and the children at the end of the week did the same, but to make a dragon!
We now know a super new rhyme about a Lion Dance which we sang and did the actions to as we went around school for our Chinese New Year Parade. When we got back we had lots of fun trying to use chopsticks to eat our rice, noodles and bean sprouts!
We have had lots of fun celebrating Chinese New Year - we would love to hear about any celebrations that you might have too!
