EDINBURG COMMUNITY UNIT SCHOOL DISTRICT # 4
CHINA

Welcome to China!

My Contact is one of the Chinese teachers that came to Edinburg Community School District on January 18, 2008.  Her name is Canary Yu Yang.  We  are working together in hopes of developing a strong relationship between our schools, staff, and students. 

 

 

China is presently  celebrating their traditional Chinese Spring Festival now, everyone got 7 days off for it . It may last for 15 days .  The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China , it's something like your Christmas , when families get together and celebrate it.  So you can see everybody smiling and saying "Happy  Spring Festival " to each other when they meet in the street or talk on the phone .   I want to tell everyone in Edinburg, "HAPPY SPRING FESTIVAL."  The Spring Festival is our Chinese Lunar New Year.  Each family makes good preparations for it .  Our children enjoy it the most because they can get whatever (presents) they want .
 
  Mr, Graham,
Here are some pictures taken from the mall and my house .   You may see the Chinese word ' 福” in almost every picture.  This word means  good luck and more happiness  .    I hope you  like the pictures .  I'll take some more for you in a  couple of days .
