This week we have been learning all about Chinese New Year. We listened to the story about the Chinese calendar, which involved a race between lots of creatures. This year is the year of the rabbit. We looked at similarities and differences between English and Chinese writing and copied some of the patterns. We used chopsticks to sort multi-coloured pom-poms and different shapes. We also used our hands to make hand prints, as we made a dragon, ready for our dragon dance. We also tasted prawn crackers and some of us tried sweet and sour sauce and watched a dragon dance on the whiteboard!
