感恩老師們很用心地教學與準備教材。

11/21-11/27 announcement

Dear Parents,

Agenda for 11/21
1. Review lesson 1-8 and pinyin symbols and combination.
2. Story: The wide-mouthed frog (Chinese edition).
3. Character learning activities with Teacher Jessie.
NO class next week - Thanksgiving Break.
Next class: 12/5 lesson 9
Last class for 2010: 12/12 - review lesson 1-9

There is no shortcut to learn any subject/skill including our heritage language.  The more time you involve the greater the chances are that your kids show interests and confidence about the language. I do not want you to spend long hours on the textbook or pinyin symbols but to provide language-rich environment for your kids.  You can sing, tell stories, read stories, chat, play, etc. together with your kids in Chinese.  (This is how we learn our language naturally.)  I have seen great progresses in some of our kids' learning and I believe that it is all parents' devotions.
For those who were not natives, there are ways to help kids at home.  You can use online resources or printed materials as tools to learn the language together.  The way you learn will inspire your kids.  Here are a couple of portals to expand the learning beyond the classroom:

http://www.huayuworld.org/edu/home_en.htm

If you have any idea to help our kids learn, please share with us.  Thank you for your continuous support and Happy Thanksgiving!!

10/31-11/6 announcement

Dear Parents,

 Today we reviewed lesson 1-6 texts and phonetic symbols with combination.  Everybody did a great job by reading aloud the texts.  However, our kids still have a little difficulties in identifying the phonetic symbols occasionally.  Please use the review worksheet inside the folder to go over the objects and combination sounds.

Instructions: 1. Say the object in Chinese and ask your child to point out the object.  2. Read out loud the combination sounds with tones and ask your child to identify the combination sounds.  3. (Change roles) Let your child pretend to be the teacher and ask your child to test you.  He/she says the object and you point out the object for him/her.  4. Point out an object and ask your child to read a related text about the object.  There are many ways to review lessons.  Be creative and share with us please!

Next week 11/7: lesson 7.  (I will be absent on Nov. 7 and Teacher Jessie will be in charge of both sessions.) 

Thank you and have a nice week!

讓愛傳出去 手語譜及歌曲

讓愛傳出去歌詞

愛是看不見的語言
愛是摸不到的感覺
愛是我們小小的心願
希望你平安快樂永遠

愛是仰著頭的喜悅
愛是說不出的感謝
愛是每天多付出一點點
雙手合十不在乎考驗

讓愛傳出去
它像陽光溫暖我和你
不管有多遙遠
總有到的那一天
讓愛傳出去
那前方漫漫人生路
有你的祝福
沒有過不去的苦

幸福的臉 手語

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7kMvw7jS6g&feature=related

幸福的臉歌詞

幸福有沒有在我身邊 怎麼一直看不見
幸福有沒有在你那邊 讓我看看他的臉
家裡已經找了好多遍 只有溫暖的房間
爸爸說幸福就在鏡子裡 那就是我快樂的臉
老師說如果慾望能夠少一點 快樂就會多一些
愛惜地球給我們的資源 隨時記在心裡面
我用善良禮貌的雙眼 發現大家幸福的臉

Sign Language song learning resource

Due to the feedback from some parents, I posted the You Tube web site link of the sign language song we are learning under ‘手語’. Hope you can practice the song and sign language with your kids. We plan to practice '讓愛傳出去’ for another week. After that we are going to introduce you a new song. Please log back on to check it out.

Thanks a lot for your interests.

成長小班第三堂課(9/19)課後叮嚀

親愛的成長小班家長們:

今天上課內容:
注 音 ㄇㄜ
國 字 妹妹
課文內容 妹妹摸貓咪，貓咪笑咪咪。(取自小康軒撥種篇)

今天一開始說了怪獸阿抖的故事，希望讓孩子們了解每個人都能可以自己選擇讓生活更美好。

後來請孩子們上台背頌上次的課程內容 (婆婆拍皮球，大家拍拍手)，指出ㄅㄆㄇㄚㄛ，或是國字(爸爸，寶寶，婆婆) ，孩子們都好踴躍舉著小小的手要上台。真的很棒。老師本來想好的抽籤箱看來是用不到了(笑) 。

2歲以下的小小孩們雖然不一定能完成指令，但老師還是設計了一個絨布版故事時間，讓小小孩也能上台有參與感。

爸爸媽媽你們在家教導也辛苦了，你們的努力會一點一滴的會看到成果的，我們一起加油。

9/19 - 9/26 annoucement

Dear parents,

At the beginning of today's class, most kids did the show (their drawing of 4 rabbits story) and tell (the story of 4 rabbits). Good job!

We learned lesson 3.
Target symbols: ㄈㄟ
Text: 蜜蜂飛 蝴蝶飛 小鳥飛飛飛
Object: 肥皂 痱子粉

We also practiced 一二三, 木頭人 by playing word cards. We will play more games next week to ensure kids are familiar with those words.

Assignment: 2 pages of ㄈㄟ practice. For 4 years old, you may let the kid(s) use different colors of crayons to "trace" Zhuyin" symbols. For 4 years old, the child’s hand is flexible and malleable and his movement may not be yet set. Do not force them to write, if they do not feel like to, but practice pronunciation and different combination of Zhuyin with them. For 5 or 6 years old, you may let him or her use pencils if (s)he is ready.

See you next week.

Dear parents,

We reviewed ㄅㄚㄆㄨ today. Most of the kids can say and recognize Zhuying smybol ㄅ,ㄚ,ㄆ,and ㄨ individually, as well as the combination of ㄅㄚand ㄆㄨ. They were also done a good job reading aloud the lesson 1 and lesson 2 texts.

The combination of ㄅㄨ and ㄆㄚ still seems challenging to some kids. Please work with the kids at home for different “Zhuying” combinations.

We also learned the followings
(1) 認字: 一 二 三 木 人.
(2) 課文: 一二三, 木頭人, 不要跑, 不要動



Final reminder,

今天上課內容:

課文內容 婆婆拍皮球，大家拍拍手。(取自小康軒撥種篇)

今天複習上次的課程內容時，許多孩子能上台背出課文 (爸爸抱寶寶，寶寶吃飽飽) 也正確指出ㄅ或ㄆ，實在是很了不起的事情! 他們年紀雖小，卻能克服上台的恐懼還能夠唸出完整課文，相信爸爸媽媽們在家也費了一番苦心。希望親師雙方一起努力，讓孩子們的中文程度更上一層樓。

The humanity class is unique to our program. We would like the kids not only learn Chinese language, but also learn the values, culture and Jing-si Aphorisms. Hope to see you there.

8/15-8/21 announcement

Dear parents,

Because some parents are not native Chinese speakers, I will post our weekly announcement in English.
It was a pleasure to meet  you and your precious kids today.  We had a busy and smooth start of the new semester year.   After getting to know your kids better, I will make adjustments based on the needs and interests of your child.

Starting next week, we will have tables and chairs in our class and we also will have a seating chart.  Please talk to your kids about the changes.

Today we learned:
1.  Classroom routines and greetings
2. "Give me five" rules - Teachers show a hand to signal "pay attentions".
3."Vowel song" - see video below.
4. Number (1-5) chant - see video below.
Homework:
1. Review Vowel song and Number chant
2. Know your Chinese name (the pronunciation)
Next week 8/22
1. Lesson 1

"Vowel song"

Number (1-5) chant

唯有您真心的信賴，全力的配合預習與複習,這一群寶貝運用中文才能說得更多、做得更好！
