Welcome back to 2014!!! I did lots of fun things over the holidays. The best thing was Christmas!
Now I'm back at school and learning everyday. We have been learning about how other countries celebrate the new year. For Iran we made little grass heads. Iran makes little gardens to celebrate the new beginning of the plant. Next we did Japan. We made fans with Japanese symbols which people in Japan put around their doors. The last one we did was India. We wrote our goals on a little triangle because in India they write prayers, goals or wishes on banners, cut out as triangles. Then for homework we had to choose our own country and write, make and draw something about it. I did Quebec, Canada. In Quebec people go out with friends to a frozen pond and go ice fishing. I enjoyed my homework and learning about other countries. I can't wait to learn about what China does for New Year!!!
