In this series of courses we will be reading some online Choose Your Adventure stories in Simplified Chinese. This course is the easiest and only requires students know 250 characters while other stories need 350-600 characters to be able to work through them. The story for this course will be Who Murdered Mayor Li, a Murder Mystery set in a mansion. There will be a number of characters who need to be interviewed to find clues and establish alibies. Through careful detective work and Chinese reading skills we will uncover the one who ended our dear friend Mayor Li's life! Each class we will talk about what has happened so far in our story and delve deeper into it. We will also write down new vocabulary words that we run into and practice them so that we can remember them.
