I have recorded the story “A Very Special Pigeon” in Mandarin for students in preparation for the Pearson Edexcel A Level Chinese qualification. The files include a whole-story recording and 7 separate files (1 of each chapter). The text used is from The Leeds Centre for New Chinese Writing (2015). Reference 曹文轩 (2014) . 一只叫凤的鸽子. Posted by the Leeds Centre for New Chinese Writing in 2015. Available at: https://library-guides.ucl.ac.uk/harvard/book-multiple-author (Accessed: 30 June 2022)

This resource contains an editable Word file of 6 pages for each year group. Each page contains can-do statements for a half-term. Students can use them to review and reflect. The content follows the Mandarin Excellence Programme, mostly aligning with Jinbu 1, Jinbu 2 and Edexcel GCSE Chapter 1-3.

This resource is to be used alongside the “Please Vote for Me - Analysis Workbook” by Rebecca Lin, which could be found here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/please-vote-for-me-analysis-workbook-12728698 It includes all sample answers to all close watching scenes.

I have created 12 sets of “listening, reading and speaking” exam practice for my students. This is a free sample set for you to download. **If you enjoy the first set, please visit this resource link to find the remaining sets: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/a-level-chinese-lrs-practice-12-sets-13048897 Notes for use: Listening: the questions are similar to that of A level exam paper. In the folder, you will find tracked audio files and the untracked one. Please note that in some of the audio files, I have used to a voice changer so the voice may occasionally sound a little strange. Reading: the text is much longer than the A level exam paper ones. I designed it that way because the text content itself serves as a modeled extended speaking answer. Speaking: I have adapted IB questions for these as I personally think IB themes are better! But the structures of answer should serve as a guidance for A level themed questions as well. Delete or adapt as you like!

This resource contains a booklet of task sheets for a Chinese teen TV drama - The Big Boss 班长大人. It gives you an editable PPT version and a PDF version. The show has 2 seasons and 36 episodes in total; therefore, the booklet has 36 pages, with one episode per page. Each page has 2-5 tasks for the students to watch the episode with. Some are open-ended questions. There is a free sample here for you to see if you would enjoy this resource or if your students would find it interesting: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/sample-big-boss-chinese-drama-project-13048891 Unfortunately I did not create an answer file. But I would suggest teachers nominate 1 student a week to mark the classwork to ease the teacher’s workload whilst holding students accountable. Although, I would also say marking is not a must or a necesity with this project; as I think encouraging students to learn Chinese culture and language through a TV series is more important. Context of the TV show: *The Big Boss 班长大人 is a teen school drama produced by Tencent. It features a high school life. It was on Netflix along with another similar drama “Accidentally in Love” and the rating for both were 12A. Now neither are on the platform anymore but Tencent published 班长大人 on YouTube for people to access for free. IMDb labelled “Accidentally in Love” to be TV-14 so 班长大人should also be a TV-14 now.

I designed this end-of-year conversational Chinese speaking assessment for our year 9 students. The rationale is the MEP programme does not have a speaking hurdle test; the students are visiting China before the summer ends; and they will go into GCSE exam preparation in the next year. I want them to study and prove their proficiency in more real-life-like scenarios. In this resource, you can find the PPT file. Feel free to adapt for your own use.

In this document, I have compiled all the essay questions of 《一只叫凤的鸽子》and 《请投我一票》from 2018AS to 2024 past papers. I have also predicted 12 《一只叫凤的鸽子》essay questions and 15 《请投我一票》essay questions. Students and teachers can use them as practice.

In preparation for the paper 2 in the Pearson Edexcel A Level Chinese qualification, I have designed this book to guide students and teachers to analyse the two designated chapters of “Memories of Peking” 《城南旧事》- 《惠安馆》、《爸爸的花儿落了》 - in depth, including: significant plots and quotes/character/theme/language analysis.

This resource contains the AQA GCSE core vocabulary and key words from the Edexcel GCSE and the HSK3 curricula, both in PDF and in editable word version. It is designed for students who are using the AQA GCSE curriculum and taking HSK3 during KS4. If your school is part of the Mandarin Excellence Programme network, KS4 Mandarin students will be studying the Edexcel GCSE and the HSK3 curricula regardless of what exam board students will eventually take. I created this resource so students and teachers can have the core vocabulary in one place. Feel free to make changes to cater to your needs! If you can, please leave me a good review :)
