Hello Families!
What a great season! There are so many holidays being celebrated by cultures all over the world. On Monday, Ms. Teja taught our class about Diwali, a Festival of Lights celebrated in India and made rangoli inspired art work. Today, we learned about Hanukkah and made Star of David decorations. Tomorrow, we will discuss Christmas as it is celebrated in Germany, where the Christmas tree originated. On Thursday, students are invited to bring in foods that are an important part of their celebrations this season. On Friday, students will divide into groups, research how holidays are celebrated in other countries, and write about it.
Thanks,
Karen
