GPCCSMy name is Wendy Wong. This is my first semester to be a Bilingual teacher at GPCCS. I was a substitute teacher last year with Bilingual 2 class, and also was a co-founder of Hope Toastmaster club - A bilingual speech club at GPCCS.
I received a Master degree from Arizona State University while when I worked in biological research lab. After I graduated from ASU, I became Quality Assurance Manager in a medical device company, then becoming real estate realtor on 2015. My new passion at GPCCS is to help students becoming bilingual for these English background students.

Text Book: My First Chinese Reader 快乐儿童华语 Volume 3 第三册29课- 34课
1.课程介绍 Course Description:
My First Chinese Reader is a set of 4 textbooks (volume 1-4) with 12 lessons in each book designed for children living in non-Chinese speaking environments. Each textbook comes with workbook A and B. To ensure that the students master all aspects of listening, speaking, reading and writing, 6 lessons will be taught each year. In this Bilingual 3 class, we will continue using volume 3 of the My First Chinese Reader Book series. While volume 2 covers topics like greetings, self-introduction, numbers, family members, countries, calendar and food, volume 3 focus more on activities such as works, schooling, eating out.
2.课程目标 Objectives:
The goal for this course is to focus more on listening and speaking than reading and writing skills. Students will be able to obtain daily vocabulary, phrases, and basic sentence structure in various topics throughout the course. Student-teacher interaction, activities, games, and multimedia are used to enforce students’ interest in learning Chinese. With workbook A, students learn basic writing characters while workbook B employs word games and activities to reinforce each lesson. In Bil 3 class last year, we learned lessons 25-28. In Bil 3 class this year, we will continue and finish volume 2 book learning lessons 29-34.
