My Students

My students are Chinese immersion students. This means they spend half of the day completely immersed in Chinese. They learn math, science, and social studies in Chinese. For most of these six-year olds, my class is the first time they are hearing the Chinese language. We have so much fun singing in Chinese, picking out their Chinese names, and by the end of the year they know a number of Chinese words and phrases.

Our school is located at the bottom of the mountain range in Utah.

The goal for many of these students is to be able to communicate proficiently by the time they head to middle school.

My Project

My students are eager to learn but find it difficult some days because math is taught in Chinese. Math manipulatives are helpful for students to learn math, not just in Chinese but also in English. A door bell will be helpful in the classroom because students sometimes tune out what I am saying in Chinese. It will help to get their attention quickly.

By using these math manipulatives, my students will be able to learn kinetically while listening in Chinese.

Learning kinetically is so important with first graders. They need to be able to play and manipulate objects in order for them to truly understand mathematical concepts.
