The K1 students were drawing pets in mini white boards.
In Mandarin in K1 we are learning to:
1, say names of pets
2, express opinions on pets
3, express wishes
4, ask simple questions using “ shen me” pattern
Learning the pets in Mandarin is not too difficult. As you may have found, most of the names of pets were made of one or two Chinese characters. In details, the words and sentences about pets are:
狗 gǒu (dog)
猫 māo (cat)
兔子 tù zi (rabbit)
乌龟 wū guī (tortoise)
鸟 niǎo (bird)
鱼 yú (fish)
仓鼠 cāng shǔ (hamster)
马 mǎ (horse)
你有没有宠物? Nǐ yǒu méi you chǒng wù? (Do you have any pets?)
我没有宠物。 Wǒ méi you chǒng wù. (I don't have any pet.)
我有一只狗。 Wǒ yǒu yī zhī gǒu. (I have a dog.)
你喜欢什么宠物? Nǐ xǐ huān shén me chǒng wù? (Which pets do you like?)
我喜欢猫。 Wǒ xǐ huān māo. (I like cats.)
你想养什么宠物? Nǐ xiǎng yǎng shén me chǒng wù? - Which pets do you want to keep?
我想养鱼。 Wǒ xiǎng yǎng yú. - I'd like to keep fish as pets.
