September 12 DLI Chinese 3H 1st & 4th periods

Today we first talked about homework/assignment policy changes -- from now on students are expected to write their homework/assignment in a NOTEBOOK. Mark the date on the top of each paper. PARENTS: please sign on the page that your student write their assignment/homework to prove that your child have read to you. I will grade the students either at the very beginning of the class or at the very end so the grade can be updated as soon as possible. 


Another thing for Chinese 3Honor DLI students, it takes about an hour just to explain the new vocab in class and unfortuantely we still have about 1/4 - 1/5 of students couldn't get their English meanings. It is ineffective to me. Therefore, a new vocabulary package with English meanings will be heading out before the lessons start, so as the quizlet game. Students will have to study and be familiar with the English meanings of the words before they come.


Here is the dictionary form. A dictionary form will be given in advance for students to understand the English meaning so we won't spend too much time on introducing the vocab.


1st period students we used more time on PQA, orally reading comprehension questions, and making questions while 4th period students working on the story as below.

September 8 Chinese Level 3 7th period

We learned
合得来
合不来
总是
大声地



we used PQA with these new words and then students worked in groups of 3 to figure out the story in pinyin and their English meanings.
We read the story without pinyin first. Students learned to recognize the Chinese characters. They may look up the pinyin on the back when none of the group members knew it.
