This past week kindergartners learned about some of the Holidays we might celebrate. We read and learned about about Diwali, Hanukkah, Chinese New Year Kwanzaa. Next week explore Naw Ruz, Eid and Christmas. We also are creating a book to go along with these holidays.
We learn that these holiday celebrations all have a lot in common including, spending time with family, exchanging gifts, delicious foods, new clothes, decorating, games, singing and light- most of the holidays have some type of light associated with it- Diya for Diwali, Menorah for Hanukkah, Candles for Christmas and the Kinara for Kwanzaa. We will learn about the new moon at Eid, Christmas tree lights and the celebration of brighter spring days at Naw-Ruz.
