 I  prepared about 16 Chinese illustration children' books for this storytelling and retelling online course. All the teaching material will be offered with two editions: with Chinese Pinyin and without Chinese Pinyin. All these reading resources are chosen from the experiences of my 8-year K-12 teaching practice and Chinese Story Club of Arcadia Public library. I will gradually speed up students’ independent reading skills without Pinyin. The classroom typical activities should be repeating teacher-modeled prescribed stories dialogues, oral pattern practice, pronunciation drilling and practicing memorized dialogues in pairs. I will teach students with many interactive activities, focusing on key character recolonization and storytelling. My teaching style is trying to make every study content interesting, and I will use games and presentations from websites like traditional Chinese language training games, such as tongue twisters, paper folding, role play, etc. I usually concentrate on comprehensive input and make my teaching plans more focused on the effective connections between each lesson. There are storyretelling assignments for students every week as well. I am going to teach how to describe 2 main characters each week, I will help students to make flashcards for vocabulary memorizing and fun. All my students will learn how to build a habit to write a book report after listening and retelling a picture book. Meanwhile I will show some interesting traditional Chinese art, such as calligraphy, paper cutting, Beijing opera, tongue twisters to enrich students' background knowledge of Chinese customs and culture, etc. Students should follow my direction and finish reading and speaking assignments to improve their reading , speaking and writing skills. Students should be comfortable with all speaking and reading activities. 
There are also a breakdown week between every 6 lessons to give students a review and test.
Breakdown 1: Workshop: Read aloud  my favorite Chinese story .
Breakdown 2: Role play a Chinese picture book(pair work/group work)
