My Project

I'm Chinese, so every year, I always teach my students about the Chinese holidays, especially Lunar New Year. We read books, and I always teach my students to use chopsticks so we could eat noodles to celebrate the Lunar New Year.

Sharing about different holidays, traditions, cultures, and foods bring new experiences to my students!!

This project is very important to me, and sharing the Lunar New Year books, decorations, and Chinese foods from Panda Express will bring a new experience to my students. We will learn about the Lunar New Year using the Panda Express curriculum along with eating foods from their restaurant.

I hope by the end of the holiday, my students will get to know about me and how I celebrate the holiday!!
