The week of Halloween was spent carrying out a lot of 'spooky' activities, including learning about the history of Halloween and the rituals involved, ghost stories, writing news articles about strange phenomena, carving pumpkins and decorating Halloween cookies.
I think it's so important for the students to celebrate or acknowledge each culture's traditions.
First hand knowledge and experience leads to acceptance and understanding.
That's why we have celebrated and will celebrate Ramadan, Eid, Diwali, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Valentines, Chinese New Year, Easter, and anything else that may come up between now and June!
