This week our Topic Story of the week was “Lunar New Year”. The children learned about the Animals of the Zodiac calendar, the story of the Chinese calendar and in which year the children were born. The children also learned about the celebration of the Chinese New Year.
During the week all Chicks had great fun learning and dancing the Dragon Dance, where they moved their bodies by following the music. They also counted gold coins, decorated red cards with Chinese script, listened to various stories related to the topic and creating fireworks using pastels on black paper.
The Role Play Area was set up as a Chinese restaurant the Chicks enjoyed cooking together and pretending to serve noodle dishes to their customers. They even used chopsticks to ‘eat’ their noodles. All the Chicks created a collaborative artwork which was a huge beautiful snake out of paper plates for the display board.
