Celebrating Chinese New Year @BPS

Gung Hay Fat Choy! Happy Chinese New Year. I had the pleasure of celebrating with many students last week.. I had the chance to visit classes and teach Chinese Brush painting techniques to my classes and share stories of my family history. Thank you Ms. Farmer for your great blog post.

A. and I read to her first grade class about Chinese New Year traditions.

The fourth graders in Ms. Kerr's art class created brush paintings that are on display in the Francis Wyman office.
