Hi everyone,

Happy Lantern Festival! The event for celebrating the Lantern Festival was cancelled this week because of the flu season and coronavirus, but no worries! We will hold this event next week. We will be really glad if some of the parents can come and help us as volunteers! Thank you. Please take care of yourselves and remember to sanitize your hands.

This week we learned the chapter 3, how to say your birthday, year, date, and the days of a week in Chinese. Considering that you are busy with your schoolwork, we will have no written homework this week. However, it does not mean that you do not have homework! Please review what we learned in class and prepare for next week's oral quiz. Some of you took the pics, could you please share the pics in the group chat so that the students who did not show up today can also use these pics to learn and review chapter 3? Thank you!

Also, we finished learning the whole song The Phantom of The Opera. Please remember to practice the pinyin of lyrics. Next week, we will continue to practice it!

Looking forward to meeting you next Saturday! Enjoy your weekend!

Best,
Tianyi

In this process, we will explore the historical development and background knowledge of each radical and character together. Also, if some of you are interested in Chinese calligraphy or painting, we could talk more about these topics in class or after class. The syllabus for this semester has been posted by email. This is just th first draft of our syllabus because the specific contents would be adjusted according to your interests and learning progress. If yo

Hi everyone, We reviewed previous knowledge about pets and learned new content including the definition of radicals, how to use and find radicals, the differences between unaspirated and aspirated consonants, and how to use gesture to correctly pronounce the pinyin. Please remember to review these knowledge at home to prepare for a quiz at the beginning of the next class (9/7). Please remember that we do not have class next Saturday (8/31). Homework: Complete the exercise on workbook (page 85-88 except exercise 11) and bring your homework to class (9/7). In case some students do not have workbook, I attached the scan document via email.  This is the link of a YouTube video we watched in class (about different categories of radicals). Please watch it again and try to memorize these radicals as much as possible.  The new students need to do extra homework. Here are the YouTube videos.

Homework: Please finish the exercises on the workbook (Page 124-128) and don't forget to bring your homework next class! For some students who do not have the workbook, I attached the scan document here. Thank you! For those students who were absent several times, please remember to check my blog and use the online tools to do self-learning to catch up with other classmates! Looking forward to seeing you next Saturday!
