Hanging lanterns for Chinese New Year

Over the past few weeks, we have been learning about Chinese New Year. This is the Year of the Dog. We talked about what lanterns look like in the day time and the night time. We tried to use lots of red, yellow and orange.

Lantern 1 is about shapes and lines in patterns.
Lantern 2 is about good luck and great wealth using rubbing mats on paper.
Lantern 3 has glitter painted on it, and it sticks out like 3D.

“It was hard to draw over pencil in vivid, because it was hard to see the lines.” said Matthew.
