Wing Luke Museum & International District


We had a fantastic time on our tour of the International District!


We participated in the traditional Lion Dance.  The Wildcats made fierce lions!

.

We learned the traditional folktale of Nian the New Year's monster.  We worked together to create a picture of what we thought it looked like.


We learned some fascinating facts about the history of the International District and the cultures that inhabit it.



We played Lucky Chess and found out what our good luck numbers were for the year.
