I like group projects, but it is only helpful if we can pick our own groups, because we can learn and teach each other.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:05 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047581 juliana_wood https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047671 I learned how to order food from restaurants and talk about the foods I like. I personally don't like the project-based learning. I liked writing by hand and doing work independently. I need to improve in reading without pinyin and working with a group. 

]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:12 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047671 brent_white https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047690 1. I learned about the fruits and foods that I consume mostly on a daily basis. I learned about Chinese tea drinking culture and how it originated. I would suggest keeping the group projects because it allows us to learn and teach.
2. I love the idea of groups because like I said previously it allows us as peers and students to teach each other and allow us to really understand the unit. 
3. I need to improve on my fluency and projection. I know the words and just need to be sure about it and speak with conviction. I can do this by studying more and keep practicing. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:15 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047690 delana_turner https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047705 1. After completing the fruits and drink project, I learned both the character and the pinyin for various fruits, drinks, and fruit juices. 
2. I like the group projects. In my opinion, they make class and learning more fun and it's more engaging than taking notes off of a powerpoint. 
3. I need to improve on making sure my sentences are grammatically correct and my handwriting. To improve, I could practice reading and writing different sentences]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047705 brittany_linus https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047709 1. I learned how to recognize, write, and say various fruits and drinks. In addition, I learned the radicals within their characters to help me differentiate the fruits based on their characters. 
2. I do enjoy this way of learning because it allows the students to be creative in their comprehension of the material. Furthermore
, it is student paced, thereby enabling the students to better comprehend. I also enjoy the way 老师 teaches (especially when it comes to grammar) because I comprehend the material faster.
3. I need to improve on my writing of characters and memorization of characters. Additionally, I need to focus on the grammar structure because that is key in my learning of 中文。To improve, I will study a set of ten characters each day to memorize them. Additionally,  I will create sentences on my own to better understand the grammar structure.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:16 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047709 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047754 1. I learned about fruits and drinks and how to use it in a sentence.
2. I thought this style of learning was very creative and a good way to get students engaged in learning. I thought this was very good and would recommend for future classes.
3. I think I need to improve on my pronunciation by practicing the characters more.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:20 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047754 raquel_spence https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047766 1. From the food and drinks project I learned how to say specific foods and drinks and how to use them in a sentence. I learned how to ask questions and answer questions about foods and drinks. I learned the correct measure words when talking about food and drinks. I learned how to ask what is your favorite color of fruit to eat and ask why. 
2. Learning this way for me was a little bit difficult but then I was able to understand and get used to the way things are. I feel like learning this way it helped me have a better understanding of the proper sentence structure to answer and ask questions. 
3. From this unit what I need to improve on is to remember the pinyin and characters for drinks. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:22 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047766 zaniah_brown https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047773 1. I learned that many of the fruits have similar radicals, and to say any type of fruit's fruit juice, you say the fruit and then juice. I suggest that we have more time to complete the project because it would allow more time to study the vocabulary.
2. I like the way that we learned this unit, since I was able to teach myself. Normally, I am lost in Chinese, but now I am able to read and understand this unit much better than the others. 
3. I need to improve on learning the vocabulary in a short amount of time and being able to read the characters. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:23 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047773 maxhernandez463 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047779 Doing this fruits and drinks project expanded my Chinese vocabulary. I like this way of learning rather than you teaching because it is more fun and interactive and the information is easier to remember. I need to improve on recognizing the characters.
 ]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:23 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047779 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047844 I learned the names, and radical of the fruits and drinks. I also learned how to use them in sentences according to sentences structures. I like the way that we are learning because we are becoming more independent, and because we work together as groups. I need to improve in learning the characters which mean I have to know how to write them and say them out loud. Since there many characters, I have to learn how to differentiate them. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:31 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047844 daniel_lee7 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047893 The fruits and drinks project helped me to learn about various fruits and helped me understand how to use them in sentences. I prefer learning from a teacher as oppose to doing research as a group because sometimes the information we get when we research could be wrong and we can be easily misinformed. I need to improve on how I work with my group so that we can be able to work with each other to complete the project.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047893 madeline_hille https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047982 1. I learned how to say many different drinks and fruits, as well as some foods (蛋糕和糖果).  I learned how to ask for favorite drink and the verb for drink. 
2. I work better taking notes from the board and writing them repeatedly. It's fun to do these projects and apply the vocabulary (like for 水果人), but that isn't the way I learn best. 
3. I need to improve on writing the characters quickly and accurately by practicing writing them. I'll most likely practice at home by copying the characters and saying the pinyin out loud as I do.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:48 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212047982 angela_deperalta https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048009 1. I learned from the fruits & drinks project how to say various types of foods in Chinese. I also learned how to use the new words I learned in sentences.  Another thing that I learned from this project is different sentence structures.  
2. I do not prefer to use this way of learning because I am not sure if what I am putting in my presentation is correct or not.  I prefer to learn from teacher who would give notes for students to take down. 
3. I need to practice in my grammar for when I write sentences. I also need to practice knowing how to say the characters without having the pinyin shown.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:52 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048009 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048065 I learned how to say various fruits and drinks, how to use them in a sentence, their flavor and radical, and even learned a few fruits. I feel great about this way of learning, as I enjoyed and learned from it more than when I use traditional note-taking. I need to improve on a few things specific to Chinese and our overall presentation skills.]]> 2017-11-30 19:46:58 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048065 sarina_wilson https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048103 I learned that fruits and drinks are very useful in everyday conversation, such as when you're very thirsty and would like orange juice.  You wouldn't be able to ask for that juice if you didn't know the word for it. A suggestion is that we have more projects like this, as they are nice ways of finding things out for yourself, while also having assistance available. My idea on they way we're are learning is that it is fun and engaging to work in groups and it helps learning also, as you can ask your group mates for help. I need to improve on reading characters, as I can translate pinyin to English, but the complex characters can be a struggle for my eyes from time to time. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:01 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048103 indigoz_emanuel https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048209 I learned different foods, fruits and drinks form the project. It helped me learn a lot of vocabulary words at one time. I personally would just prefer to learn these words in class with laoshi teaching them. This is because I find it hard to remember the words unless i am forced to write them down in class. I need to improve on paying attention to other presentations. The small characters and constant presentations make it hard for me to understand and comprehend. 

]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048209 abrielle_pearson https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048311 1. I learned from this project that fruits and body parts can be used in the same sentences. My suggestion for next time is another thing that has to do with drawing or art. Group projects are also helpful and I think we should continue doing them.
2. I think this way of learning is very helpful and makes it easy to learn the subject material.
3. I need to improve my pronunciation of tones.]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:24 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048311 tyler5_smith https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048327 1. I learn various things from the fruits and drinks project including types of fruits, teas, and drinks. 

2. Although the projects were very informative and collaborative, for the audience, I believe the way of learning is a bit flawed.

3. I need to improve on reading characters instead of pinyin. I believe I can improve by studying even Tuesday and Thursday. 

Suggestions: create meals out of fruits/ foods we learned ]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:26 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048327 jared_zheng https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048350 I learned how to say different fruits and drinks in Chinese. 
I think that the best way to learn is to make our own presentations.
I can improve on being more specific in my definitions.]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:28 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048350 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048388 From doing this project i learned many new vocabulary words, i also had to be creative because of the different things the project would ask for. I feel that my best way of learning is having to interact with what im supposed to learn abt, ie; activities or reinforcing the information i learned to myself. I believe what i need to improve most on would be being consistant with going over what i've learned as well as practicing pronounciation of words]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048388 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048390 1. I learned many new vocabulary words such as 饮料，菠萝，和猕猴桃. I learned many new sentence structures such as： 你喜欢什么味道的蛋糕？为什么？
2. I think that many people learn better when they do research on the topics first and does a presentation on it. This way of self-teaching can be very effective to some people.
3. I need to work on writing sentence structures in the correct format. The font size of all of the sentences must be the same in order to avoid confusion. I will improve by making the font the same size for my slides. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:32 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048390 monettejoi_mesina https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048431 1. I learned how to connect fruits and bodies together. I also learned the sentence structure of doing so.
2. I really enjoyed this project and it helped me learn a lot. I enjoy making posters and it was really fun working in a group.
3. I need to improve on my pronunciation and I need to memorize the characters that I forgot how to say.]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:36 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048431 https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048441 I learned the how to say and write the fruits and drinks in Chinese. I also learned the measure words for each fruit and drink. I liked doing this project but I found it easier to learn when the teacher tells us what the word means, how to say them, the measure words, and some example sentences. I need to improve on remembering characters without pinyin. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:47:37 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048441 jacq_penarrietalopez https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048650 I learned the many basic fruits and how to say them in Chinese. I learned about the various terms for different things and how they can relate like their measure words. I think this way of learning is good and creative because it shows us to work in groups to put together something that'll teach the class. I need to improve on memorizing characters and being able to read them clearly. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:48:03 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048650 simarpreet_chawla https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048655 While doing this project, I learned how to connect both of the topics we learned in this unit. This project was very interesting and useful in helping me practice my vocabulary and sentence structures. This way of learning is easier but I would prefer when the teacher explains the vocabulary and sentence structures instead of me figuring it out myself. The part I need to improve is practicing more Chinese. Also, I realized that it is beneficial when I look back at my notes and projects after every class. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:48:04 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048655 sophia_alfred https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048702 1. I learned some useful fruit names and chinese tea culture. 
2. I like this way of learning, but I prefer having a warm-up to start the class of to refresh what we've learned so far.
3.  I need to improve on recognizing character and learning how to write them.]]> 2017-11-30 19:48:10 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048702 dejah_coates https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048854 I learned how to say many popular fruits and drinks in Chinese as well as the Chinese culture of tea drinking. I, personally, enjoy group presentations and projects. However, to teach a whole class, I'm not sure if it will be as effective as learning directly from the teacher. I need to improve my memorization of the vocabulary, so that I can recognize and translate characters without the need for pinyin. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:48:27 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212048854 maryann_eba https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212049730 1. By completing the fruits and drinks project I learned how to say various fruits and drinks in Chinese, I also learned different flavors, such as sweet and sour. 
2. The projects that are assigned helps me better understand and memorize the vocabulary discussed in the unit. 
3. I know the vocabulary and how to form sentences, but I need to improve in speaking, I will do this by pay closer attention to the pinyin each character has. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:50:09 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212049730 cincy_chacon https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212049987 The food and drinks project helped me learn about many fruits, foods, and drinks. Group projects are good. I could improve on the pronunciation and definitions by practicing and studying more. ]]> 2017-11-30 19:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/CaiLaoshi/wgd800euxvkh/wish/212049987
