Aug 26-30


Parents,

We’ve made it 4 days and things are going well! Students are working hard as they transition to this new school year. Every week I will send out an email with information on what’s going on in the school and in class. If you have questions or would like clarification, please reply to this email directly.

Last week, in Chinese, we learned how to say, “please, thank you, you are welcome, sorry, and good morning”. Students learned counting to ten in Chinese. We also learned the colors-red, green, blue, yellow, white, and black in Chinese. We will continue learning new things and review what we have learned at school. We appreciate Mrs. Farr’s help with ordering the Better Chinese online learning program.  If you would like to order Better Chinese online learning program to help your child review Chinese at home, please contact Mrs. Farr (Cathy_farr@hotmail.com).
