The first session was a great success!

Our summer camp's first week focused on the Dragon Boat Festival. Students investigated the festival's traditions and history, engaging in exciting dragon boat races and playing the traditional "Five Poisonous Creatures Throwing" game. They learned festival rhymes, practiced writing related Chinese characters, and created themed crafts. A highlight was making—and enjoying—zongzi (rice dumplings). Students also naturally expanded their vocabulary, including food names, and practiced Chinese self-introductions.

Did you know?

In Mandarin, the tone used when pronouncing a syllable can change its meaning entirely. For example, the syllable "ma" can mean:

mā (妈) – mother

má (麻) – h**p

mǎ (马) – horse

mà (骂) – to scold

This tonal aspect makes Mandarin both challenging and intriguing to learn

Part 3 📖 The Legend of Qu Yuan

The villagers who admired Qu Yuan rushed to the river in boats to try to save him. They beat drums and splashed their paddles to scare away the fish and evil spirits. They also threw rice into the river so the fish wouldn’t eat his body.

Instead of changing the verb, speakers use context words like "yesterday" (昨天) or "already" (已经) to show time. That means "eat" (吃) stays the same whether it’s past, present, or future!
