Week 11- Monday- 吃饭去 chī fàn qù (Let’s have a meal)
This week we continued with the theme 吃饭去(chī fàn qù-
Let’s have a meal), and watched a short clip about the famous Chinese dumpling-饺子 (jiǎo zi). Next we did the 饺子 (jiǎo zi) craft and became owner of a dumpling restaurant 饺子店 (jiǎo zi diàn),
in which we had to design our own advertisement. It was really awesome!
We also read a story from the textbook Mei Zhou Chinese 美洲华语 (měi zhōu huá yǔ) lesson 3- 南瓜灯笼 (nán guā dēng long-Jack O' Lantern). The students were invited to do a recount of the story. It was a
very interesting story and we really enjoyed it.
This was our last lesson for the term and it has been a fabulous term! I would like to wish everyone a restful and wonderful holiday.

Week 11- Tuesday- All About Me- Teacher Jamie
We started the lesson with
singing our warm up song 猜拳歌 (cāi quán gē-finger guessing song). We did a revision on
the body parts we learnt this term by playing a puzzle game. You may wish to
practise the words here.
Next, we learnt how to introduce
ourselves in Chinese and also made our own mini book. You may wish to practise
reading the book with your child here.
This was our last lesson for
this term and it has been a fantastic term. I would like to wish everyone a
wonderful and enjoyable holiday.

Week 10- Tuesday- All About Me- Teacher Jamie
This week we looked at the popular finger guessing game by learning to
sing our warm up song 猜拳歌 (cāi quán gē-finger guessing song). The children got so excited with
playing the game and realised as well the different sequence and term we used
in the game-scissors, paper, rock was actually剪刀jiǎn dāo
(scissors)、石头shí tou (rock)、布 bù (cloth) in Chinese.
Next, we listened to a story about how a brother comforted his little
sister when she was hurt, and we learnt the words 哭(kū-cry) and 笑(xiào-laugh). Next, we made a little puppet and discussed about
different scenarios, and what would our reactions be by using哭(kū-cry) and 笑(xiào-laugh). The children had fun making the
puppets.

Week 9- Tuesday- Dragon Boat Festival 端午节 duān wǔ jié - Teacher Jamie
Dragon Boat Festival 端午节duān wǔ jié is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month- this year it falls on the 20th of June. For this week, we learnt about the meaning behind this festival, the food and activities that are associated with this festival.
We learnt a song about this festival:
五月五 过端午 (wǔ yuè wǔ guò duān wǔ)
Fifth day of
the fifth month, celebrate dragon boat festival
划龙舟 敲锣鼓 (huá lóng zhōu qiāo luó gǔ)
Row the
dragon boat and beat the drum
一二三四五 (yī èr sān sì wǔ)
One two
three four five
你来划船我打鼓 (nǐ lái huá chuán wǒ dǎ gǔ)
You row the
boat and I beat the drum
粽子 (zòng zi) is a special food
eaten during this festival, hence we did a rice dumpling craft. Another popular activity is the dragon boat race. We certainly had a great time decorating our
own dragon boat 龙舟 (lóng zhōu).
