四月十六日星期二 April 16, Tuesday - B Day


Today we learned a poem in Chinese Level I, and a poem for Level II and III.
Chinese Level I we worked on the poem 靜夜思 written by one of the best poets in Chinese literature 李白. We first recited the poem a couple of times and imitated how to recite the poem as ancient Chinese poets did. Later we used small whiteboards to practice each phrase and then line. Next we recited the poem that was emitted a couple of words off the poem each time until all the words were gone and students were able to memorize it. At the end we did speedy reading. Some students were able to  memorize the poem without pinyin and reminders while some needed a couple of reminders.
