Centennial High School – Chinese III Honors (Mandarin)

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

This course’s ACTFL Performance Goal of Intermediate Mid means that by the end of the course students will understand most main ideas and most supporting facts in short passages on familiar topics, though students may need to read/hear complex passages more than once. Students will rely on context clues or prior knowledge to help them understand what they read/hear. Students will be able to maintain conversations about themselves and their lives. Students will also use language to express their own thoughts and get the things that they need while being able to connect some longer sentences together. Students will be able to ask and answer, as well as write a variety of questions well enough to accomplish what they need. Students will do all of this in a way that the teacher and others who are used to language learners easily understand what students are saying and writing. Students will investigate the products and practices of a culture to understand a culture’s unique perspectives so that students can interact with others in and from another culture. Students will participate in regular performance assessments and take the STAMP proficiency assessment as part of a student’s final exam grade.
