The activities are designed around themes in the Chinese elementary
curriculum and organized into 12 monthly sections to fit the school
year. Volume 2 contains activites for January through August. Themes
include Fruits, Chinese Food, Hobbies, Sports, Animals, Insects, Public
Places, Vacations and more. Also included are seasonal activities to help students
celebrate and talk about special events and holidays of each month (e.g.
Chinese New Year, Valentine's Day, Dragon Boat Festival)
In this imaginative resource, you will find multi-leveled lessons and
a broad variety of activities that facilitate differentiated
instruction to accommodate students with different levels of Chinese,
learning styles and intelligences; they not only help students to learn
more effectively, but allow them to enjoy the process and develop
sustained interest in learning Chinese.
Each section begins with teacher notes that states the learning
objectives and difficulty level of each activity, and offers suggestions
on how to implement an activity to get the best results.
Chinese Treasure Chest is a joint effort of three
experienced Chinese teachers, and encapsulates their years of teaching
experience and innovative approaches to teaching young children. It will
make the classroom experience more fun, more enriching and more
rewarding for teachers and students alike!
Presented in Simplified Character, Pinyin and English. Ages 5+. Also available is a Traditional Character Edition. Both are spiralbound, 420 pages.
