Editor's Notes

  1. NOTE: The red coloured-dates are this year date.
  2. Teachers can try to ask students the year they were born and match it with the Chinese Zodiac.
  3. Mind the no. 5 activities, play firecrackers and fireworks, please remember there is always rules to follow, as now during the pandemic, the activities is likely to be at home only.
  4. NOTE: For the food choices are widely varied, but these are the most common ones to be found in the New Year’s Reunion dinner (a night before Chinese New Year). Please make sure the students understand that the food also just as a symbol, not literal meaning of what the person is going to feel after eating it. For example, the dumplings symbolizes “WEALTH”, because it resembles the gold money (most valuable item) used in the ancient China.
  5. These are some taboos that usually eldest member in the family will follow and have the entire family to go with it. Everyone who follows the taboos rule is because to show respect to the wishes of the eldest member of the family. However this is not something that is written in stone, so with more development and understanding, there are many have been more liberal and not following the taboos rules anymore, especially if there are no eldest family living together.
