Kindergarten: Holiday Traditions Celebrated

Liza Baker’s class had some special visitors this week to help them learn fun holiday traditions celebrated by different families in Middle K. Rotating through six stations, they made paper lanterns for Chinese New Year, played dreidel for Hanukkah, decorated gingerbread houses, heard the story of baby Jesus, lit Advent candles, and tasted oplatek, a Christmas wafer eaten in Polish cultures. Thank you to our wonderful parent volunteers for bringing the Holiday Culture Fair to our students!
