Grand Rapids, Michigan Mandarin immersion program hosts students from Shanghai
September 1, 2016
Forest Hills Mandarin Chinese Immersion students recently hosted a group of 29 students from Shanghai at the Cascade Recreation Park.
In addition to lunch, the 60-plus children spent time on the newly installed play structure and participated in a few organized games.
But most importantly, it was a chance to practice their language skills while making new friends and having fun.
Forest Hills students in the seven-year-old program take half of their classes in Mandarin from teachers from China. This is the second year for the picnic with students visiting from China, said Tim Shaw, principal of Meadowbrook Elementary.
