Pershing High School – Chinese II

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Learners communicate and exchange basic information about familiar topics related to self, home, family, friends, neighborhood, school, community, professions, and environment using phrases and simple sentences. They recombine and reformulate memorized language in the present and in the future, and report series of isolated events in the past. They interact in short, social, everyday situations by asking and answering simple questions. They write short messages, postcards, and simple notes within the context in which the language was learned. They are understood primarily by native speakers who are sympathetic and accustomed to interacting with language learners. They recognize pieces of information (familiar words, phrases, and sentences) within short and simple messages related to everyday life and understand the main topics of what is being said or read. They show awareness of the most obvious cultural differences or culturally unacceptable practices.
