Chinese New Year Presentation

This ready-to-use Chinese New Year (CNY) presentation is designed for teachers to show directly to students. It introduces the key ideas of Chinese New Year in a clear, engaging, and age-appropriate way—perfect for whole-class learning across K–8.

Students explore:

  • Customs & traditions (red envelopes, decorations, family celebrations)

  • Traditional foods and their meanings

  • The Chinese Zodiac and what each animal represents

The presentation ends with a student Choice Board, giving learners voice and choice. Students can create, design, draw, write, or speak to show what they’ve learned—making culture interactive rather than passive.
