Multi-Cultural Day 12/17/13

We traveled around to different classrooms and learned about many different cultures from all over the world! It is important to learn about different cultures because it helps us understand people who may seem different from us and what a FUN day it was!

The different cultures we learned about were: 
1. Feliz Navidad ~ We sang to the office staff
2.  Kwanzaa ~ We made a Kwanzaa mat called a Mkeka
3. Traditional Christmas ~ Mrs. KK our Book Fairy read of the book Silver Packages. We made a silver package of our own filled with thankful notes to our loved ones. 
4. Hanukkah ~ We danced the Hora and played dreidle
5. Christian Christmas ~ We read a LEGO Christmas book and did a small play of the nativity scene 
6. the Legend of the Poinsettia ~ We read the book Legend of the Poinsettia and made poinsettias of our own.
