When Melody Meets Mandarin

歌曲在中文教学中的应用

2:00 – 2:30 在语言教学中，歌曲是一种有效的工具，能够从多方面提升学习的效率和体验。例如可以用在听力训练，发音练习，词汇扩展等方面，也可以提升学生的愉悦感和自信心。然而适合汉语学习的歌曲很少，因此长期以来歌曲在教学中的利用率不高。我们这个Workshop 将向大家介绍一系列专门为中文学习而设计的歌曲，歌词的设计参考了常用的教材如“你好” “进步” “轻松学中文”等。每一首歌都有一个主题，例如打招呼，数字，家庭，宠物，运动，食物等。我们将讨论在教学的不同阶段，怎样高效率使用这些歌曲。最后会介绍一些配套的免费教学资料如Lyrics, worksheets, vocabulary list等。 Fiona Feng: Songwriter and founder of Melody Mandarin

While the school-based assessments and final exam do not specify particular ideas and concepts from the Three Teachings, this workshop serves as a catalyst for critical thinking and dynamic discussions.
