It's a wonderful chance to introduce our colourful Chinese culture to the English students. We had so much fun on watching a couple of boys in bright colour Chinese ladies' traditional costumes from different minorities. They even volunteered to learn some traditional dance movements. After introduced a basic Chinese musical information and taught them a Chinese folk song, the session finished with a quiz, a good way to summarise. These boys and girls did really well on matching the costumes, dance movements, greeting words with the minority names and their residential locations on map of China. When they were leaving, they all looked so excited, their teacher had to stop their questions, for example, "Is there Google in China?", "Do you like noodles?". A girl told me that this was the most interesting session she ever had. I was still very excited although it had been repeated 5 times on that day. Thanks to our beautiful Chinese multe cultures, her attraction, which makes me so proud. Will run more workshops definitely.
