十一月七日星期四 November 7, Thursday - B Day

For Chinese Level I students, we didn't learn the new words but review the old words. After we reviewed words we did small individual whiteboard activity. Later we acted out the story with TPRStorytelling circling quesitons. And the we read the story aloud and students did the chorally translation. After chorally translation we use TPRStorytelling circling questions about the story. And then students worked on coping down the story in pinyin and translate the story on their own. They also need to copy down the questions and answered them in full sentence in pinyin. Students were assigned time-reading and had a timed reading competition.

For Chinese Level I students, since I had a doctor appoint so a sub is here to help the students.

1.     Ask the students to copy down the words onto their notebook; Chinese characters, pinyin and their English meaning. Please make sure every students stay on the task. (Some students would just copy down the pinyin and English, not Chinese characters.)

2.     Watch the video and tell the students they will have to make a tally each time they hear the words on the board and shown in the video, and see how many these words are repeated in the video.

3.     If there is any time left, please let them check with their neighbors and see how many times they hear these words shown in the video.

4.     Please ask them to put up the chairs on the table before they leave and pick up any trash around their sitting area.

5.     Please feel free and call me if there’s any questions or concerns.
