To culminate their unit on China, the third-grade students in Jeanie Mullins’s, Stacey Barrett’s and Lynne Groveman’s classes celebrated with a special day. The three classes worked together to explore tangrams, an ancient Chinese puzzle, after listening to Ann Tompert’s book “Grandfather Tang's Story.” Afterwards, they partnered with Melissa Clive’s class to end the day with a Chinese feast. During their luncheon, the students exchanged red envelopes, which included a special treat and wished each other “Gung Hey Fat Choy,” Happy New Year!
