Children's Day
My first graders are creating these fabulous fish as we study other cultures. In Japan, Children's Day is celebrated on May 5th. Parents hang fish banners outside to honor their children. Since this is also when many of my students celebrate Cinco de Mayo, I thought it might be interesting to see how other cultures celebrate different dates. We used an oil pastel resist to create the different textures and details. I can't wait for them to be hanging up in celebration. As for me, I am currently celebrating my first day of Spring Break!!
