Chinese New Year

My school resumes Monday from Winter Break.  I took the last week of it to get myself organized and ready for all the upcoming holidays I will include in my lessons. I just finished my Chinese New Year pack. Its is printed, cut out, and ready for laminating.

The pack includes a Chinese New Year poster with character traits of a horse person and the years of the horse. There is a coloring page to go along with it too. My students will do the coloring page during snack. It is a nice time to put on our "thinking music" (Mozart), eat, and color.

In addition, there are math and literacy themed printables (Chinese New Year Word Work, Alphabetical Order, Read and Write the Room, addition, and graphing). We will be using these in our Daily 5/Center time and during Math time. During our Social Studies/Science block, I will introduce the topic with my poster and KWL chart.
