It was great to see students looking happy and ready to learn after the holidays. This week in Mandarin Chinese, Grade 3 & 4 students learnt how to describe what they can/can't do. They also practised saying the action words in the correct tones. The students had lots of fun when some of them made mistakes by using the wrong tones, for example they said 'shuǐ jiǎo' (dumplings) when they meant to say 'shuì jiiào' (sleeping). You can't imagine how much they laughed when they found out what they actually said!!
The Grade 5 & 6 students learnt about the Chinese Five Elements theory. They enjoyed discussing how the five elements were related. They were also surprised to find out that these elements play an important part in Chinese peoples everyday life, which includes cooking and general health.
