Body | A recent request on the FLTEACH listserv for Chinese text recommendations at the community college level received the following replies. ---- Although not a Chinese teacher, I do look at Chinese materials. I would recommend considering the following series from Yale University Press: Communicating in Chinese: Listening and Speaking Students Book for Listening and Speaking http://yalepress.yale.edu/yupbooks/book.asp?isbn=0887101755) Cynthia Ning Go to Yale Univ. Press's world languages page at http://yalepress.yale.edu/yupbooks/language_home.asp and enter "Chinese" as the keyword. Scroll down till you come to these books. I think this series may be the most accessible for community college and high school. If I am not mistaken, it was used in Philadelphia in the small HS Chinese program. I got a kick out of the Chinese listings - some of the classic texbooks of the 40s and 50s are still in print. Stillman, D. Re: Chinese (Mandarin) textbook? Foreign Language Teaching Forum listserv. FLTEACH@LISTSERV.BUFFALO.EDU (14 June 2006). ---- Chinese has been taught in the Springfield MA schools since the late 1980's, and has flourished under the expertise of Dr. Mei Ju Hwang, the lead teacher. We teach foreign languages to ALL learners, and have done so for at least 15 years. Mei Ju recommends the following as options for you to consider. - Ni Hao 1 for Chinese 1 classes - Ni Hao 2 - Ni Hao 3 In addition, she supplements her courses with sections of: - Integrated Chinese - An Introduction to Chinese (simplified version) - Communicating in Chinese (Listening and Speaking) by Cynthia Ning - Communicating in Chinese (Reading and Writing) by Cynthia Ning http://www.cheng-tsui.com/ is where we buy our books.
