‘If You are the One’ (Chinese game show)
​
We have just published new resources for Stage 5 Chinese on our website, based around the Chinese game show, ‘If You are the One’. You will find a sample unit of work, sample assessment task (with marking guidelines) and an updated scope and sequence.

Learning more about others can lead to establishing and nurturing new friendships and relationships. In this unit, students learn to describe physical appearance, character and personality traits of themselves and others to establish a rapport and build connections in different ways with various people. Students also explore values and attitudes relating to beauty and dating in China, in the context of one of its popular shows.

We have revamped the practice speaking questions from the old HSC Online site, for Chinese Continuers. Sorted by topic, this is a great document to give your students, so they can prepare for the upcoming oral examination.

It's available from the Chinese Continuers section of our website.

Here are some useful Olympics online resources that Language teachers may find useful if preparing units of work next term to coincide with the games. 
 
AOC Australian Olympic Education – resources that align with different learning areas, general capabilities and with different categories. Whilst not-Languages focused, these current AOC resources reflect the upcoming Rio games and can be adapted to suit the target language being taught.

MLTAV & AOC Olympic Resources for Language Teachers – these resources were co-developed to look at aspects of the Olympics a few years back through the application of target language. They cover themes of Olympic activities, symbols, countries, sports, training and schedules. Language teachers can integrate these into units of work they may be undertaking during the Olympics and flexibly deliver them based on their students’ language learning needs. These are available for Arabic, Chinese, Croatian, English, French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese and Spanish.
