Chinese Dragon Boat Festival

Hot off the press!

A title page for Junior and Middle Primary, celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival.

Chinese Flash Cards

I've been working on a few flash cards to use with my online classes this term. Here's a few samples. The Grade 1/2 classes are looking at the theme: Food (starting with fruit). The Grade 3/4 classes are looking at the theme: Vehicles & Transport. 

Rudi's Favourite Fruit

 

As the majority of the world starts looking to conduct education online, this is a work sheet I have created for my Grade 1/2 classes in Chinese. Rudi the Orangutan is showing the students some of his favourite fruit. Rudi is a puppet who used to help me teach Indonesian when I was working at Rochester Primary School. He is now making a a new appearance with my younger students. They find it funny how Rudi is fluent in Indonesian, but now he has to learn Bahasa Cina (Chinese)!

Chinese Language Award - Second Edition

This is the same award as shown earlier, but with clouds added. One of my students, who migrated from China a few years ago, suggested that I add traditional Chinese illustration clouds. It certainly improves the picture!

Another activity for Chinese this week. This is a cut up sentence activity aimed at Middle Primary.
The completed sentences read; 
Zhè shì wǒ de lóng. Wǒ de lóng shì huángsè de. Tā de míngzì shì Qiáng dà. 

Chinese Language Award

Hot off the press... A Chinese Language Award for school.  This involved a little research, too. For example, the colour of the dragon, the number of claws and the little globe that it is chasing.

This took a little while to complete, due to the detail, but it is certainly worth it.

Chinese Numbers 1 to 8

I've always found that a good way to learn another language is to teach it. These are a sample of Chinese number cards.  They can be used for memory and snap.

Indonesian Holidays - Colouring in work sheets

These colouring-in sheets are good for Indonesian language lessons for Lower to Middle Primary.
