Ribbon Making Workshop – Everyday Wreath
April 14  •  9:30 AM – 10:30 AM
The popular Ribbon Making Workshop is back; it will be the last workshop for this school year. Learn to make a wreath for any occasion. It’s simple and elegant. We will provide all the materials but donations are welcome to help cover costs. Come join us for a fun creative workshop, good conversation and a cup of coffee/tea in the Cafeteria at the next BYOC Coffee Break on April 14. 

Mandarin One Self-paced Online Module
CHS will offer our parents an option to buy the “Mandarin One Online Module” which aims to give our younger students early exposure to Mandarin pinyin pronunciation. This module consists of a 12-page booklet that includes all twelve chapters from the CSL1 textbook with the addition of pinyin annotations.  In addition to the booklet, students will also have access to various games and exercises on Quizlet and get themselves familiar with the pinyin pronunciation of words and vocabulary from the booklet. Since this module is based on the CSL 1 textbook, our students should be pretty familiar with most of the words and vocabulary and that should allow them to focus more on learning the pinyin pronunciation. 

The “Mandarin One Online Module” is suitable for students from both C and CSL tracks. Please note that this module does not teach the tone and pinyin system the same way we do in the upper Mandarin classes from 7th to 9th grade. However, our students can interact virtually with our Mandarin class teacher and are entitled to a certain level of support and feedback with the purchase of this module. This “Mandarin One Online Module” will provide our students a fun-filled and enriching earning experience, especially during the summer months. 

Contact Principal Sally Leung at <sallymyhome@yahoo.com> if you would like to help or learn more about this great program.
