Course Description:
中国地大物博，历史悠久，风景美不胜收，风俗文化趣味横生。但是，在美国学中文的孩子们很难有机会亲身感受。怎样让他们有机会全面系统地学习了解和进行创造性的比较思考呢？
欢迎来到我们的快乐中华大地行课程！

Chinese Cultural Journey is a discussion class integrating Chinese geography, history and culture. For each topic, we focus on exploring a famous Chinese city or place. The course content covers historical sites, ancient cultural legends, local customs and authentic Chinese cuisine, etc. The students will participate in activities such as making crafts, watching videos, joining group discussion, and taking contests. In addition, for each topic, a presentation template and exploration points are provided, so that the students have sufficient opportunities and topics for practicing Chinese writing and making knowledge presentation. I hope to give the students an in-depth experience of Chinese culture through rich and attractive content and joyful and fun learning.
