More review; more perfection!!!!!

Another lively class today! For those of you who didn't make it today, we missed you!!

More review and more attempt to perfect what we have learned.

Here are the weekly key words for your reference:

Mao1  (猫): cat
Xiong2 (熊): bear
Mao1xiong2 (猫熊): panda bear; BUT Chinese people tend to call panda bear Xiong2mao1 (bear- cat, just think you should know)!!!

Let's do math with little bears!!

12 zodiacs!

Ask your little one to go brushing teeth every night in Chinese: Shua1ya2 (刷牙)!!

That is all, folks! Tomorrow afternoon booster class as usual! See you, I hope! Have a great week. 

Cheers!!
