Dear Parents,
We’re excited to continue building on our students’ Mandarin skills this term. To support their growth, students in Years 4–6 receive a weekly homework assignment.
The Mandarin homework is divided into two parts: a weekly homework sheet and a character writing booklet for each new topic.
Weekly Homework Sheet – This sheet, which is given out on Thursdays/Fridays and due the following week, will focus on vocabulary and sentence structures we have learned in class. It’s a great way for students to review and reinforce their weekly lessons.
Character Writing Booklet – At the beginning of each new topic, students will receive a booklet for character writing practice. They are encouraged to complete one page per week, or they can hand in the completed booklet all at once at the end of the topic. The goal is to build strong muscle memory and recognition of the characters we are studying.
Homework is an important part of the learning process. To help our students develop a strong sense of responsibility, we ask for your partnership in making sure their work is completed and submitted on time. We will be tracking their progress and will reach out if we notice any missed work.
We truly appreciate your support as we help your children flourish on their language learning journey.
Best regards,
The Mandarin team
