Let’s Learn Chinese is a textbook series with 12 volumes, and 12 lessons for each volume. The content gradually increases in difficulty. Each volume is appropriate for use over the course of one academic term at an overseas Chinese-language school. The lessons revolve around daily conversation, and the content fits the principles of communication, cultures, connection, comparisons, and communities. They are suitable for the elementary and junior high school levels. Their goal is to cultivate students’ ability to use Chinese to communicate in everyday life, so they can immediately use what they’ve learned either at home or in a Chinese-language environment. The after-class practice focuses on task-based teaching. Many kinds of communication models are integrated where appropriate, including bilateral communication, performance and interpretation, and unilateral comprehension, in order to improve students’ listening, speaking, reading, writing, and cross-cultural Chinese language abilities. The lesson content includes conversational texts, new words, and sentence structure training as well as other kinds of application exercises. Songs and games are used where appropriate; and audio files are available for download online. Throughout the teaching materials, the Chinese characters, vocabulary, sentence patters, and grammatical structures are quantified and ordered. Both phonetic symbols (Bopomofo) and Hanyu Pinyin are used, and the vocabulary and grammar in each volume advance “from low to high proficiency level with the concept of spiral curriculum,” and are very common and usable.
