Kindergarten Year of the Sheep drawings

We talked about the up coming Chinese New Year and the Chinese Zodiac.  Students learned about how the Chinese celebrate the Lunar New Year.  Thursday, February 19 we will be leaving the Year of the Horse and moving into the Year of the Sheep or Goat.  Students learned how to draw a sheep, goat and ram  and we talked about using line to create texture.  Children also learned the Chinese character for the word sheep, which some students included on their year of the sheep drawings.
