Introduction Chinese characters on Video Clips







十一月二十日星期三 - November 20, Wednesday - A Day

Finally we got out of the clothes shopping for Chinese Level II & III. Hoooray!!
Today we first practice speaking. Students were paired up with a sheet of 8 pictures. Students were asked to talk about the story upto 1.5 minutes and then 2 minutes. They read the pictures and told the story. Later we played word search; one for clothes shopping, the other for basic Chinese characters like 我,你,他, 大,天,太,要,有, 上, 手,哭
And then each pair played against one another.













 
For Chinese Level I students, we worked on the textbook story on grabbing the hamburgers.
