Lunar New Year

by Christopher and Rachael
​During the first week of February, all around the world, everyone celebrated Lunar New Year. At PS 516, we did a dragon dance to get good luck. Each class passed the dragon with a red envelope. Inside had two papers: one was from Ms. Smith and one from another class. It made us feel happy.

Field Trips

Songs

by Fredy and Yasmin
​In 1-310, we have a 310 cheer.

I'm proud, I'm strong,
I'm ready for whatever comes along. 
I got good friends
We stick together til the end.
I like myself, I work a lot
I like myself, I work a lot.
We do this cheer in November because we do good at school.
