Here are vocabulary words that you can form with the characters that you know: 天子--emperor, 文字--written language, 十字--cross, as in a Christian symbol, 文学--literature, 天文学--astronomy, 小学--elementary school, 大学--college, 上学--attend school. Write each of these vocabulary words in characters and then in English explain how you can remember the meaning of each of the words. For example, I would write these characters: 天文学. Then I would write in English, Astronomy is the study of the heaven's writings--and the writings are the consolations and planets. That's it.

Lesson 34

Go through this review:. For each character, draw a way you can remember it--you can use the same picture concepts on the reivew power-point, or you can create your own ideas. Have fun, make it colorful and memorable.
