Week 24--

Dear Parents,

Thank you for all coming to our conference!
During the three week off track, please help your children review the Characters of Textbook 1B.

I have already finished the Textbook 2A part on the "Character Definitions" page of my blog! So when we get back on track, you could look them up when you need to. If you wanna see the stroke order and hear the sound, please go to the "Homework" page, and link to the "Textbook" website to find the characters form the articles.

Kids, have a great off track!
See you on March 20th.

Thanks for parents who came to help with the center activities! I'll need two parents' help every Monday and Wednesday, both in the morning and in the afternoon. And for Friday, I'll need two parents' help just in the afternoon.  If you have time and willing to come. I appreciate it! I am going to ask parents to sign up their volunteer time on our Parent-Teach Conference, which is coming in two weeks.

Week 21 News

This week, I had students work in groups to make sentences with the Chinese Characters that we've learned form Lesson 6 to Lesson 13. Both classes did a great job! They are so excited about it, and I'm so proud of them! Since students have already practiced 67 Chinese Characters this year, I'll continue reviewing the old ones while moving on to the new ones. 


This Friday, my morning class finally got their class shirts! When I gave out those, they just couldn't wait to put them on---In three minutes, the whole class became purple! How I love these kids!!!


I've posted the Chinese New Year Celebration photos on the "Class Photo" page. Please have a look and feel free to down load them.

Week20--Note to Parents!!!

Dear Parents,

Many kids are getting better on their Thursday Chinese Character Quiz, while some kids are still struggling for it. Please check your kids' backpack for how they were doing. I usually gave the Quiz sheets back to kids with their worksheets that are already checked by me. Remember, the more practice, the more kids'll remember.
So far, we've covered L6-L13(There are 67 Characters included.). While we continue moving on to next lessons, I strongly recommend kids to review previous lessons.

This week, I gave out a worksheet to review some characters we’ve learnt from previous lessons. In the bottom, I made a sentence from these characters. As what we’ve be doing, we’ll have a Chinese Quiz based on this worksheet on next Thursday. Please encourage your child to do more practice on my blog.
Thank you for all your support.
