My Project

Lunar New Year is right around the corner. This year is the Year of the Dragon. Similar to years past, my grade will celebrate Lunar New Year in school by learning about the festival, tradition, read books, and engage in fun crafts throughout the day. A majority of the students are of Asian descent and enjoy taking part in the festivities.

To celebrate, I would like to give my entire grade paper lanterns to bring home.

Thank you for taking a look at my project. I hope with your support, I can make this project come to life for this important day.
