It's WONDER-FILLED Wednesday! Today we begin the amazing journey of learning the folk tale "The Little Red Hen" in MANDARIN!  Even if you're second language is not Mandarin, this is an amazing opportunity to expand your language learning and expose yourself to a language spoken in China and Taiwan! The brain LOVES, also NEEDS to learn new languages! 

This lesson is a bit longer than most because we read the whole story in English with the Mandarin translation. 

Today we jump into a new week with a new Aesop's Fable, "The Monkey and the Dolphin", followed by "The Parents and Boyhood of Ulysses" from Tales of Troy and Greece by Andrew Lang.  Enjoy these awesome tales! 

It's Fairy Tale Friday! Today we hear part one of Beauty and the Beast, as told in The Blue Fairy Book by Andrew Lang. 

Today we are introduced to just one word in Mandarin - "Hen" in preparation for "The Little Red Hen" Folk Tale!  

Today we enjoy the following...
