In this class, students will read one of the famous Grimm's fairy tale- Snow White in Mandarin Chinese with a native speaker-Mrs. Moony. They will enjoy the reading fun, learning with age-liked students and practice their reading and writing skills. Each class, students will read a chapter along in Chinese with Mrs. Moony. Then we'll highlight the new vocabularies, both in Pinyin and simplified Chinese characters. Students are encouraged to read independently afterward in roles play or story telling games. They need to communicate with each other in Mandarin Chinese in the interactive games and will be asked to read and write short sentences independently. As an inclusive class, each learner could follow their own path, they will be always engaged to challenge themselves. Finally, we will discuss and write a short paragraph for each chapter in Chinese, which could be a little homework for them. This class will be taught 100% in Mandarin Chinese and the story will use simplified Chinese. Students are required to communicate in Chinese by speaking and listening.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I had been living in Beijing, one of the most historic city in China for more than 30 years, and grew up in Hutong and kept all the customs generation by generation. I taught mandarin in Oklahoma, US for 2 years and voluntarily provided Chinese culture sharing club in the local public elementary school for 3 years. I LOVE Chinese culture and this unique language. My dream is to support more and more students to know Chinese culture and Mandarin Chinese. I'm passionate to work with children on Chinese cultural learning and Mandarin teaching, because it's not only full of fun for me, but also meaningful for me.
