Teaching Chinese students!


Today was my last day to teach my Chinese students. I found this experience to be very rewarding, challenging, and fun. Yesterday, I taught my students how to invite someone to do an activity with a friend. I wrote a song, "Do You Want To", to the tune of "O My Darling Clementine." We sang the song as a practice. We then did another activity to practice in a different way. As we practiced the forms, they insisted on singing the phrases, "Do You Want To, Would You Like To, and I Was Wondering. I finally asked the students, would you sing an invitation to a friend to play basketball? They all laughed! ;)-
We no longer sing our invitations now!
