Students in Mrs. Ray's class used the book Every Month is a New Year by Marilyn Singer and Susan L. Roth, to compare how their families celebrate the New Year with other traditions around the world. Students created posters to illustrate their differences. This book was given to each classroom here at Castleton Elementary School through the CLIF Momentum Grant.
