On Mar. 28, the Chinese classes visited all three elementary schools to expose third graders to this ancient and increasingly important language at an early age through a 30-minute presentation. Participants created a storybook, which they read to their class in both Chinese and English, then followed the presentation up by engaging the children in story-related games about vocabulary and Chinese characters. The designed lessons included teaching animals, numbers, transportation and food in Chinese.
