Year 11 Chinese

Students continue to develop their speaking and listening skills using the communicative approach and increase their ability to read and write characters in Year 11 Chinese.   

They will learn to initiate and sustain a conversation in familiar social situations beyond the immediate context, e.g. past and future, write extended passages and read independently in characters.   

Students will also extend their understanding and awareness of Chinese culture and values. 

Students learn to understand and produce a variety of text types:

• Communicate information, ideas and opinions in the form of letters, reviews, emails or blogs.
• Express and respond to personal ideas and opinions.
• Communicate appropriately in different situations, e.g. restaurant, shops or on streets.  
• Understand ways in which the target language and culture are organised for different purposes, e.g. letters, posters or blog entries.
