How to Teaching? 1. This year has 30 classes. The textbook has 10 lessons and 120 new words. I will plan every lesson needs to learn 2 or 3 classes and every class needs to learn 6 new words. 2. This class is Chinese class. If on Chinese holidays, I will take an additional teaching materials (CD or cartoon) to finish the work. The students can know that which and why. 3. I will plan 2 times tests and many times short quiz. I want to students practices more and more. 4. Beginning this class (only September), I will teach slowly because we need to know each other.

Introducing My Class 1. Different age: My class has 20 students. Their age is very different. 2. Different language environment: Some students don’t have Chinese environment. Their parents can not speak any Chinese. 3. Different knowing: Some students can speak and write Chinese words over Level one, but most of students speak or write Chinese words a little!
