Our 1st Field Trip --- San Francisco annual Chinese New Year Parade

We had our very first field trip to San Francisco on the March 7th for the annual Chinese New Year Parade. It was fun to witness this event together with all our club members (and their supportive families)! Thank you for all the parents who put effort into this and made it happen! I can 's say enough how much your support is appreciated!  Unfortunately, I forgot to take a group picture with you guys.  :(   Please remind me to at least take one group picture when we do our future field trips, as a way to preserve our beautiful memories and to document our life-experience learning.  

Here I can only share some pictures that I took that evening, about what we saw...... Enjoy them! (Please share with me if you have some good ones, especially the ones with any of "us" in it. ~_^)

After this field trip, some of the kids were so excited seeing the lion dance and the dragon teams that they were proposing at one of our club meetings: "Can we make our own lion costume?  That looks really cool." I have to agree; it is really cool. Although we had no experience making stuff like that before, it's not a bad idea to try new things, right? I actually liked this idea and the students' passion behind it. I'll definitely keep that in my mind/agenda, and with this group of kids, I'm sure we can try this DIY craft project in the near future.
