Fall series to begin in October | 9.11.2013

Summer went by in a blink of an eye and we have had such a blast with our Spring and Summer classes. The class got to use the great outdoors as our classrooms on many occasions. We have learned about the earth and stars, dinosaurs and marine life, just to name a few. As we get into the Fall season, we look forward to rolling in leaves, explore more Chinese traditions and showing you what the season has to offer.

​Children's Website | 4.11.2013

​One of Yi-Chun's favorite websites is the Taiwanese Ministry of Culture - Children's site. While the site is composed in Chinese, the main page has a link to a wonderful assortment of books that are animated, and in video format. The link is included here so you may click on any of the story books that seem interesting to you and your family, and begin hearing stories in Mandarin Chinese.​
