Fun Ways to Practice Word Study in First Grade!
Dr. Lawrence Yang, Daniel’s dad, visited first graders this week. Tuesday, Dr. Yang talked about Daniel and gave skiing tips to the first graders to celebrate Daniel being student of the week. On Thursday, Dr. Yang and Daniel shared about Chinese New Year. Students learned about customs associated with Chinese New Year, such as wearing red for good luck and respect of elders. The Chinese New Year observance traditionally begins on the evening before the first day of the year and culminates with the Lantern Festival held on the 15th day of the year. The Chinese calendar identifies the lunisolar month as the eleventh month and falls on the second new moon after winter solstice. Chinese New Year is an important holiday where you spend time with family and celebrate.
