Instructional Ideas

  • Ask class members that celebrate the holiday to share their traditions with the class
  • Preview the YouTube video visits to the house and select one to share with your class

Classroom Considerations

  • Although the resource is designed to accompany a visit to the Yin Yu Tang house in Salem, Massachusetts, the materials are appropriate for any study of Chinese New Year celebrations

Pros

  • The 16-page packet includes worksheets, an annotated list of art works, story books, videos, and web sites suitable for research projects, and activities

Cons

  • No lesson plans are included
