This week the Yellow Group have been learning about Chinese New Year. We explored mark making in Chinese using fine brushes and examples of Chinese print and also carried out our very own Chinese Dragon Dance! Some of the children got to play instruments while others dressed as the dragon and danced to the music.
We even had the chance of trying to use chopsticks and tasted different types of Chinese food â the prawn crackers went down a treat! Also, we got crafty and creative as the children were able to make their very own mini Chinese dragons.
This week allowed children the opportunity to learn about different traditions and cultures. The children asked a lot of who, what and why questions and were all willing to try and experience new things.
