Description
Celebrate Lunar New Year in a meaningful and engaging way with this Chinese Zodiac flip-up bulletin board resource!
This hands-on activity combines reading, writing, and fine motor skills while introducing students to the 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac through informational text and a collaborative display.
Students read a short, age-appropriate passage about each zodiac animal and complete a cut-and-paste flip-up fill-in-the-blank craft that summarizes key information from the text. The finished pieces come together to create a beautiful, interactive bulletin board that can be shared with your school community.
This resource makes cultural learning visual, interactive, and student-created, helping learners build comprehension skills while taking pride in their work.
