The class has learned a few Chinese words and they even practiced drawing/writing a few of the words.
We are going to look for a few good books about China, but since many of my blogland friends have studied other countries, I thought I would begin by asking for book suggestions. If you have read any good books about China, please leave me a comment and feel free to leave a link to a post if you have one with books about China!

How cool that his class has learned a few Chinese words and characters!
I'd love to hear about any good books you find!
We did a bunch of stuff about china. I'd highly recommend the story of books. There was noodles paper and kite at our library
That is so cool that they learned some Chinese characters!
How fun! I remember always loving it when we had exchange students in school.
What a fun way to welcome him in the class!
That must have made him very welcomed! What a wonderful idea to do it with every class!
I think it's great they are welcoming this student by teaching the students are his culture. Great lessons in citizenship and understanding.
How exciting to have this direct contact with someone from another culture. We had many books during our China study, but the ones that come to my mind without going back to my posts are "Look What Came From China" and Demi stories - The Greatest Treasure is my personal favorite.
Oh, wow!! Emily is so jealous of C for having a new classmate from China -- she has an undying obsession with China! She has several books.. I'll pass along some titles to you!
