Chinese New Year 2017 :: Year of the Rooster :: Chinese Lantern Craft

Year of the Rooster Chinese Lanterns
Chinese New Year Activity Sheets

A creative way to decorate your classroom for Chinese New Year on January 28th, 2017. Roosters hanging from the ceiling or sitting on the shelf, your kiddos will love creating and putting on their own personal touches on these Chinese lanterns.

These units are designed in a Mix and Match format. You are able to pick the pieces that you want, depending on the needs and the abilities of your students. There are so many different possibilities.

So many ways to create this 3D Rooster lanterns using glitter, paper layering, leaves, shredded paper, cotton pieces, tissue paper... Make sure to add the Rooster legs, arms and tail…too cute!

These lantern crafts are great for developing fine motor skills, following the directions and listening skills. I currently teach Kindergarten and my little ones love creating lanterns. I just teach each step in isolation and then put it all together. This is a great activity for buddy classes to work on…again teach the steps in isolation and then put it together. With my buddy class, these lanterns will take a few sessions to complete.

In addition, 6 activity worksheets included to enhance learning about the Year of the Rooster and Chinese New Year.
