十一月四日星期一 November 4, Monday - A Day

For Chinese Level II & III students, we learned the following words.  We used TPR to introduce these new words and review the old words. We acted out a story and then we used TPRStorytelling circling questions for choral response. Later we read a story as a class. The teacher first read the story sentence by sentence aloud and the students translated the story chorally aloud. And then students were asked to write down the story in pinyin and translate it into English.
