For Chinese Level I absent students - 1) first watch the videos below that shows what story we were telling/acting out in class; 2) Time reading the story up to 2 minutes, 3) copy down the story below and translate it into English sentence by sentence. 

For Chinese Level II & III absent students - 1) first do the word search and find 20 words from them; write down the words you find and their English meaning on the back of the paper. 2) Time reading the story up to 5 minutes, 3) copy down the new words and show the teacher your notes. 

For Chinese Level I, first we review the words taught before, and then we acted out the story with TPRStorytelling circling questions. Next the teacher read aloud the story word by word and sentence by sentence and the students chorally translate it into English. Later, we did the time-reading. Students read the story up to 2 minutes, and then up to 1 minutes, and then up to 30 seconds. The goal is at least 80% of students are able to finish reading the story once in 30 seconds.

For Chinese Level II & III, first we review the words taught before, and then we did the word search. Students were asked to find 20 words from the word search and write down the words they find and their English meaning on the the back of the word search paper. After that we did chorally read aloud for each sentence word by word backward. Next we did whole class read aloud to yourselves up to 5 minutes; read aloud as pairs up to 4 minutes. The goal is at least 80% of students are able to finish reading the story once in a minute.
