This term Primary 2 have been learning all about China. To launch our learning context we created a class dragon called ‘Nian’ who hangs above the carpet watching over us.

We have been learning how to write and say 1-10 in Mandarin. We have also been learning about the Legend of the  Zodiac, we have found out that we were all born in the year of the rabbit.  The restaurant  ‘Chopstx’ has opened  in class where we can play and explore.  Here are some pictures of us working at our stations.

This term we are also using the learning lab where we are making different Chinese dishes. So far we have made spring rolls where we had to carefully measure our ingredients, mix them together and roll up the pastry. The rolling was very tricky! This week we have made egg fried rice, we had to follow the recipe very carefully to make sure we had the correct amount of ingredients.

Take a look at us cooking.
