Hi Gang,
BEFORE I
FORGET TO MENTION, IT HAS BEEN DECIDED THAT OUR PROGRAM WILL BE CLOSED
ON CHRISTMAS EVE, 2 MONDAYS FROM NOW, EVEN THOUGH THE SCHOOL AND THE
YMCA ARE PHYSICALLY OPEN THAT NIGHT. We know that a lot of
folks might have company or family holiday parties and dinners that
night, and we certainly don't want to get in the way of anyone's holiday
plans!
Once again, I am a bit pressed for
time this week, but I wanted to get this out sooner than I did last
week. I will briefly summarize what we covered and then paste links
below for the appropriate 2017 blog entries for you all to read which
will more thoroughly cover the same material, as well as preview the
material that we will cover in the next couple of classes.
This
past Monday evening, we first reviewed the vocabulary for lesson 2 on
pages 54 and 55 of the text, and then we went over the Build-Up and
Recapitulation for lesson 2's Dialogue on pages 32-34. I had wanted to
break up into small groups to run the dialogue with your partners, so I
could walk around, listen and correct as needed as well as answer
questions, but we ran out of time, so we will pick up with that next
Monday.
Your homework for next week is to
review the above mentioned vocabulary and dialogue, as well as the three
2017 blog links below. Please also review the material from lesson 1
and the pronunciation and tones in general, if you are having any issues
with any of the sounds of Cantonese.
Please refer to the following 2017 blog entries for deeper insights and notes on this material:

Best wishes and see you all next Monday,
Brendan
