2. This Sunday, February 25, is the second test day for Chinese classes. “Space learning over time with review and quizzing can promote retention, comprehension, and content mastery.” Review and examination are very important for children’s Chinese learning. I hope that students will review and consolidate the knowledge they have learned and achieve good results.

To ensure the quality and effectiveness of classroom teaching, parents are asked not to sit in the classroom unless given permission by the teacher.
