九月三十日星期一 September 30, Monday - A Day

For Chinese Level I students， we first learned the following words and we used PQA to practice these patterns. Next students were given a piece of paper and folded it into 12 boxes. They needed to ask 12 classmates the question "你多大？“ and the students answered. They needed to write down the name and the age in the boxes.  After 8 minutes, we played 'black out' that the teacher threw a ball to a student and asked "你多大?" and the student answered it. Other students corssed out the name called on their paper. The student who got called may throw the ball to another student and asked  "你多大?". Continued the steps until a student yelled aloud "我贏了“ I won.
After we played the same with "你幾歲？“

你(nǐ)多(duō)大(dà)？= how old are you?

你(nǐ)幾(jǐ)歲(suì)？= how old are you?

我(wǒ)………歲(suì) = I'm .....years old.

For Chinese Level II & III students, we first learned the following words and we used PQA to practice these patterns. We made 16 flashcards. And then we watched a poweroint and used TPRStorytelling circling questions to practice listening and speaking skills. Next, we played the battleship game with all these words.
