This class is designed for children ages 4–6 who are not yet ready to use the Jinan Edition textbooks in our regular Chinese classes. The goal is to spark children’s interest in recognizing Chinese characters and to help them connect spoken words with written characters. Writing is not taught in this class; instead, students will learn to associate sounds with characters and begin to build a foundation for reading.
For this school year, the class will use the Disney I Can Read picture book series (6 volumes). Through engaging stories and illustrations, children will naturally recognize and remember characters while enjoying the fun of storytelling.
