Teacher’s Guide

The accompanying scheme of work provides teachers with an additional 8 hours of teaching materials and is designed to consolidate and extend learning from the game. 

Introductory activities introduce children to patterns in Chinese culture such as porcelain, silk embroidery and in the decorations on buildings. The games, quizzes, reading and sequencing activities that follow further familiarise children with the structural patterns in Chinese characters and focus on recognition of all 80 words required for passing YCT level 1. 

The guide includes clear step-by-step teaching and background information for non-specialist teachers.
