My Project

As we prepare to celebrate the vibrant and exciting traditions of the Lunar New Year, we want to make this cultural celebration even more meaningful for our students. To encourage participation, effort, and enthusiasm, we are seeking support for small prizes that will reward students for their involvement in our Lunar New Year activities.

During our Lunar New Year unit, students will explore the history, symbols, and customs associated with this holiday through crafts, art projects, storytelling, and interactive lessons.

We want to motivate them to fully engage in these activities by offering fun, themed prizes as a way to recognize their hard work and creativity.

Your contribution will help make our Lunar New Year celebration even more exciting by rewarding students for their efforts and encouraging them to learn and participate in this cultural celebration. These small rewards will not only motivate students but also add to the festive atmosphere of our classroom, making the celebration memorable for all.
