This is my mandarin video project. For this project, my group mates and I made a video on the dragon boat festival in China. It was a skit and we eached played a major character in the story and we retold the story. I was the main character qu yuan. This was a very fun project and I learned very much from it.

Mandarin

Mandarin has been really fun this quarter. I have learned so much. My favorite thing we have done this quarter is our Tai Chi presentation. It was really fun practicing it and trying to get it perfect. I also learned so much about the Chinese culture from it.

In the third quarter we learned many things including school supplies, basic sentences, the happy birthday song, Chinese new year characters. We also had a big test that we had to study for. The third quarter was the hardest but we learned a bunch.
