Welcome to our ongoing Mandarin Chinese class tailored for students with minimal to no prior experience in the language. Throughout this captivating course, we'll delve into a variety of themes such as animals, activities, food, and colors, utilizing effective techniques like repetition and voice variation. It's important to emphasize that this class is not a Chinese immersion program, and no prior knowledge is necessary. During our sessions, students will not only expand their vocabulary in Chinese but also express it creatively through drawing. Our unique approach includes a presentation segment where students showcase their drawings, engaging in conversational practice with their peers. To ensure a solid foundation, personalized assistance will be provided to help students refine their pronunciation of new vocabulary. Additionally, students are encouraged to apply their weekly learnings by creating new drawings or even short stories. In our Chinese club, we eagerly welcome students to suggest topics for further exploration.

Learning Goals
The goal of this class is to make students comfortable with the Chinese language and enjoy drawing and making connections with the vocabulary words and with others.
I have found teaching using strategies that employ multiple intelligences is the key to learning. In my classrooms, students learn through visual, music, language, and kinetics movements. Drawing helps learners focus and connect the words with their visual images.
