This winter, my students delved into the theme “Winter” through reading, writing and science. Our final project? Creating an informational writing piece in Chinese where students become experts and teach the readers all about winter!

When introducing the informational writing unit to my students, I tell them they are going to be EXPERTS on some topics and teach their readers about this topic by using facts that are true. Informational writing is an excellent way to encourage students to explore the world around them and learn from each other.

When it comes to reading, there is no one-fit-all solution. Learning Chinese is not an exception, either. That’s why we decided to create these leveled reading passages to provide effective and engaging ways to improve students’ Chinese literacy through guided reading.

When I first started working as an English-Chinese bilingual teacher, I found that there was a lack of eye-catching and beautiful Chinese classroom decoration resources and bulletin board ideas.

We decided to create this big (and growing) bundle of Chinese classroom decoration materials for our bilingual Chinese teachers and Chinese immersion teachers. Your classroom will look organized and beautiful with these materials.
