This morning, we broke into groups to learn about different celebrations and holidays around the World. I asked that students pick a holiday that they themselves do not celebrate, so that they could learn about something new! The students read through their books, became experts about their holiday, and then prepared a small presentation on their celebration/festival. Each group got to present theirs to the class, and answer questions. Everyone did an excellent job on this!
At home, ask your child to tell you about "their" holiday/celebration!
These are the holidays and celebrations we learned about:
-Cinco de Mayo
-Chinese New Year
-Kwanzaa
-Diwali
-Hanukkah
-Christmas
-Ramadan and Id-ul-Fitr
