Chinese Oral

Dear Parents,

Oral booklet was given out on Monday. Please revise it at home and bring it to school everyday. Today we did Picture (4) together in class. I told them to copy what to say in their special square book. I only have 2 periods with them so not enough time to check everybody's book. I'll type out what I wrote in class and maybe you can help me check while going through with them. Thanks thanks! :D

Picture (4):
1. 这是一个公园。
2. 公园里有花草树木,真美丽!
3. 两个小女生在跑步。
4. 老师带同学们到公园里画画。
5. 一位老公公带了一个小的收音机。他坐在椅子上听音乐。
6. 两位老公公在散步。
7. 一位叔叔在做早操。
8. 公园里的空气清新,大家都喜欢去公园。

Some pointers for oral:
1. Always start telling/ stating the place.
2. General statement eg: 公园里有很多人 , 家里有爸爸、妈妈、姐姐和弟弟。
3. Conclusion is not a must but if he can say a simple sentence to conclude will be good too.

Have a good time practising with them! Let me know if you have any doubt. :D

Best regards,
Ms Yeo

  1. Dear Teachers, Parents & Students,

    Arrange some children Chinese folk songs could be an idea. Learning language through music is not a new idea anymore,but not many people adopt,or tend to forget it. Initially select some Chinese song that your students like(doesn't have to be folk song,but only recommended);after realising some improvement of them,let them write their own Chinese lyrics(can even be only 5 sentences) by adopting songs/tunes that they like.
    By introducing children song, students can be guided through background/theme imagination before they really sing it - it is more or less like a story telling. Later on, let them listen to the song(songs that have English/Chinese version are better); they can even involve in rhythmic clapping. After having some ideas/background of certain songs,they can learn to have body movement while singing the song which is set as a guidance to improve their Chinese word recognition while singing.

    儿歌:
    - 一闪一闪亮晶晶
    - 世界小小小
    - 小小羊儿要回家
    - 我的家庭
    - 妈妈的眼睛
    - 三轮车
    - 掀起你的盖头来
    - 椰树长得高又高

    老歌:
    - 小城故事
    - 草原之夜
    - 三月里的小雨
    - 。。。。。
    - 。。。。。
    - 轻松,带有快节奏和带有故事的老歌会是很好的教材(opinion & recommendation only)。。。

    学习老歌也是一种促进小孩子跟公公婆婆的关系。老人并不是东西而已(无可否认,也要看怎样的老人。专门刁难年轻一代的,不能在这里相提并论)。如果明白事理的老人,他们不是东西,而是宝。如果小孩可以跟家里的老人一起享受华语老歌,这不只是学习语文,还能间接让小孩从公公婆婆那里得到无价之宝的知识,从中了解华人文化。如果家长对华语老歌(八十年代的老歌很多,轻松又好听)也有兴趣,那是最好不过了。

    八十年代歌星:刘文正,邓丽君,凤飞飞。。。


    Happy Learning :)
