Little Panda Classes
Took the kids to their first summer recreation class yesterday — The Little Panda Class, a playgroup done in Chinese. There’re about 15 kids all together.
At the beginning of the class, Ashlyn and Alex were not too interested, and they looked confused. I think it’s because of the language. Everybody else knew the songs very well, and it’s very obvious that we’re the new comers. As the class progress, and teacher Jill took out more props, Ashlyn and Alex got involved a bit, especially when some wooden sticks (like drum sticks) and musical instruments were distributed to the kids.
We were given a CD and a lyric book, so last night, we were teaching Ashlyn & Alex to say words in Chinese. Not sure if they totally understood the meaning, or if they were just imitating the pronunciation, they sounded pretty good.
I was solo with the kids yesterday. I will try to take video and pictures next time.
