During our food unit, my Chinese students learned to express our likes and dislikes for food in Mandarin with various activities like games, skits and writing original songs.  Here is a short video of an original song written by a student.

 

 

We also learned to cook Chicken Chow Mein 鸡丁炒面.  Before we started cooking, we learned important cooking vocabulary in Mandarin.  After we cooked the food, each student made a little book in Chinese with step by step instructions on cooking this dish.
