Chinese Level II August 27, 2015 Thursday B Day

Today we did a much better job; students were more comfortable and confident than last time. Students came in and be seated at the bell. 1st thing they did is to copy down the words on the board.
We used TPR to introduce the words and played charade games from the teacher against students and from students against students. And then we acted out the story three times. After the act-out, we used TPRStorytelling circling questions to check the comprehension. Later we read the following story. Again we used circling questions to check the reading comprehension.
