Dec 17, new homework assignment:my winter break

Hi, parents:

Due to NCS will have a story telling competition in spring semester.
I would like to assign the student another homework for this coming week.
After they saw the cartoon, write a short journal, it is better for them to practice telling it at the class.
The topic will be my winter break.
It could be any topic from the cartoon or they want to share their winter break's story.
The story telling time is 1 minute to 3 minutes.
It includes the pronunciation, gesture, expression, topic and so on.
So it is better to let them practice at home from now.

After the break, the first class, we will let kids say it at the class.
Please let kids prepare it first.
Thanks!

中文學校春季班除了識字比賽外,還會有說故事比賽,主題自訂,
時間一分鐘到三分鐘,
評審標準會從,發音咬字,流暢度,肢體表現,主題呈現等做評斷。
藉由放假小孩看卡通寫讀後感同時,也同時練習演說的能力,
請幫小孩準備一段我的寒假的故事,一到三分鐘,
可以跟看卡通裡的主題有關,也可以小孩自由發揮說他們寒假的活動。
開學後第一堂課,會讓小孩上台說。

謝謝!

Dec 9, the last class, winter break's homework

Today, we have kids not showing up, arrive late or early release.
It is hard to make a group activity.
So we have a bingo game which includes all vocabularies from lesson 3, 4, 5, 6
I will send you the file by e-mail to let kids practice playing it at home.
We let kids write words to practice.

We have a party time which I let kids have steaming bun and bread which we taught as new vocabulary.

Homework

Watch the cartoon as above link.
There are eight topics with Chinese subtitle.
Let kids write one journal as more Chinese as they could.
If they want to type, they could.
Every week, write one journal related to those topics.
The first short story is related to lesson 5.
They should be very familiar to start with this one.

寒假功課,看卡通影片寫週記。
卡通有八個主題,讓小孩自己挑選一個主題寫,每週寫一個,
鼓勵小孩儘量用中文寫,輔助注意符號,
真的不行,最後再用英文做總結,
這樣我改作業時,才知道小孩到底有沒有聽懂了解內文。
第一個主題跟我們的第五課課文非常接近,加上有字幕,
所以小孩可以從那一個故事開始著手。

Dec 2 the final exam

Dear parents, thanks for your support to help your kids prepare for the test.
They all improve and learn something new.

Next week, Dec 9 is our last week of this semester.
The first period, we will review kids what they learned.
Parents are welcome to come inside the classroom if you want.
Second period, we will have a party time.
Please each parent prepare one snack for your kids to share.

This week's homework, let your kids practice Quizlet on the vocabularies of lesson 3,4,5,6.

For the Christmas break, I will have them do homework like watching the Chinese videos.
And then the first class, I will let them share what they think about it.

謝謝家長的協助幫忙小孩複習期末考,由於範圍大,小孩有點不熟稔,
但他們都很聰明,可以憑著認識一個單字的意思去聯想答案。
本週的作業,是讓孩子們再次複習第三到第六課的單字。
讓孩子熟悉認字的能力,開學時,會讓他們有個識字比賽遊戲。
寒假作業,會讓孩子看中文的卡通,開學時,會讓孩子討論內容。

Reminding:

Comment:
Now all kids can write words together but had a hard time on understanding the meaning.
For the class arrangement, I will let them practice making words, sentences more.
Then let's move to let kids create their stories and record it at home.
The next step will be write their own story by using the words they know along with the phonics.
現在所有小孩都參與寫字,也很會念課文,但對詞彙的理解需要加強,
所以課堂上,我會安排多一點造詞造句的活動。
回家功課,會以錄音小孩說自己的故事讓他們發揮創意,
最後目標,希望小孩可以開始寫作文,打字的方式, 錄音也可以,會再跟家長做討論。
謝謝家長配合。
