Visiting Peak Academy
Today we had a wonderful time when our Chinese delegation visited the 2nd grade scholars at Peak Academy. They were accompanied by our UA Mandarin IV students and together they presented lessons on Chinese language and culture. The 2nd graders were so sharp and enthusiastic! And such quick learners! By the time we left, the young students were experts on using chop sticks, counting from 1-10 in Mandarin and singing several Chinese tunes.
It was a great experience for our students to be the teachers and we hope that the children had at least half of the fun we had! It was a very special day and we thank Peak Academy for welcoming our friends from China to their fantastic school!
