Chinese Zodiac Story

The class enjoyed this short video.  The paintings are beautiful.  They especially like the sound effects.

For snack we also had Mandarin oranges , which are considered to be a "lucky" food by the Chinese people are commonly eaten during the New Year celebrations. Everyone tried at least one piece (I was proud of them!) so the class should have plenty of good luck.
