The Mandarin learners at SK had a culturally heavy week. We learned common colors used in Spring Festival decorations, and ingredients of different snacks that are popular during celebration.
The 7/8 graders made a pastry with dates. They would try making it again at home with more sugar (白糖) added. The 3/4 and 5/6 graders made 冰糖葫芦, an attractive fruit snack on a bamboo skewer. I will add the syrup reciepe to this blog soon. The 1/2 graders made 汤圆(tāng yuán)and they had fun making it from scratch. 祝大家新年快乐!
