Friends
If most of you are able to go, then we will
go as a group. But if not, as I know some of you have to work, we will
celebrate the Moon Festival ourselves in class on Sept 24. We will enjoy moon cakes and read the
poem on page 12 of the textbook, which we practiced last Tuesday. And if you can recite the
poem, you will get an award – a Chinese to English Dictionary. If you know any poems
in your culture describing moon, please bring them in.
Best
Lin Laoshi
