S1 Week 14: The Skunk Ladder

   Dear parents, I hope this message finds you well! Please see below for an overview of what we worked on in class today, as well as the homework assigned.  You will notice that I have assigned vocabulary for students to study at home. As we move forward and spend more class time on more challenging concepts, I hope to help students build independence by having them learn the vocabulary on their own.

If they are unsure about any vocabulary word, they should bring their questions to class the following day so I can review it with them. If I notice that any Chinese definitions are inaccurate, I will inform you as soon as possible.  Thank you for your support and understanding! Below are some helpful resources for t...
