Celebrating Kwanzaa Lesson Plans
Kwanzaa derives its name from the Swahili word for “first fruit.” The phrase has multiple meanings, though, that can’t be translated literally. Kwanzaa celebrates the Seven Principles, which are traditional values that keep a community functioning efficiently, like unity, faith, self-worth, collective responsibilities, cooperative economics, shared purpose and creativity. Kwanzaa helps those with African heritage all over the world to preserve their heritage a worldwide culture.
