designed for students who have a
Mandarin Chinese-speaking environment at home. The class uses
MaLiPing method & literature rich
textbooks. The textbooks incorporate
a large amount of Chinese culture and
literature, which gives the children a
chance to learn the language as well
as their heritage. Speaking and listening are practiced in the Chinese-only class environment. Adjusted for kids’
busy after-school schedules, the teaching focus is divided into steps: decoding,
reading and then writing. Speaking Mandarin Chinese at home regularly is essential to the success of this curriculum.
