Chinese
We will continue the next unit-
2 A 7. Below are the characters we will be
learning to write. I encourage daily practice of writing with the
correct stroke order, so these would be good to practice at home!
- 兔 tù- rabbit
- 饿 è- hungry
- 到 dào- to arrive
- 菜 cài- vegetables
- 果 guǒ- fruit
- 汤 tāng- soup
- 蛋dàn- egg
- 饭 fàn- rice, meal
- 吃 chī- to eat
They will be learning to read the terms in the stories as
well as write the following vocabulary terms:
We encourage you all to have your student practice writing the
above characters (and using them in sentences, which they should be able
to do by now) frequently. Any repetition is beneficial, as they are
hard to memorize sometimes!
Chinese Readers
The
readers are still coming home the first day of the week and should be back at the
latest by the Friday of the same week. They are not expected to read
them perfectly, but are expected to be able to pull out characters they
know from class. Please make sure they keep track of these readers and
return them, as they cost $5.00 each and will not be able to receive the
next book until they have turned in previous books.
Math
We are continuing our unit on Place Value (to 1,000) Ch.10!
Homework Expectations:
- Homework will be given Mon-Thur in English &
Chinese (except for occasional "no homework" days after a long day of
testing or other occasional exceptions)
