On Tuesdays in Room 7, we have a 30 minute Mandarin lesson with Miss Chen. At the moment we are learning the days of the week and months of the year. We had to work out our own birthday this week.  Once you can count to ten it is relatively easy, because it basically follows this formula…. 1 day, 2 day, 3 day and so on, and then 1 month, 2 month and 3 month. 

So your birthday might be 25 day, 9 month and so forth. I am taking the same lessons with the class – they are geniuses and I am the special needs student!! We read a story about a birthday – my class were reading along in Mandarin beautifully.Not me!  Gosh they are amazing!!
