2. We introduced the disclosure, including supplies, cell phone usage, make-up quizzes, class website, remind, and classroom expectation. You may click disclosure or the following link to access its full copy. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BykK4J3trllPeE5jVXY1ckNfeFU/view?usp=sharing

 

3. We introduced two Chinese terms -

4. At the end we played Bingo game. Students drew tick-tac-toe boxes on the back side of the name tag and were given 5 minutes to introduce themselves 9 students with the Chinese terms and write their names down on the boxes randomly. And we played bingo.
