Online “Mid-Autumn Festival” cultural course was successfully held in Riga 64 Secondary School

On October 8,2020,local time,students of the Preliminary Chinese language class of Riga 64 secondary School attended a long-awaited online Chinese lesson. Affected by the epidemic, Chinese classes can only be held online. After many times of coordination between Ms Fu, a volunteer Chinese teacher, and Jana, the superintendent of the school, it was finally decided to carry out Chinese course teaching on ZOOM platform.

This is not only the first Chinese lesson for the junior Chinese class of Riga 64 secondary School, but also an unique “Mid-Autumn Festival” culture lesson. In this class, students learned some simple greetings.Besides,they also understood the origin and the customs of the Mid-Autumn Festival and the types of mooncakes. The students were particularly interested in mooncakes of various flavors. The Chinese teacher showed them the traditional Cantonese flavor on the screen. One delighted student excitedly asked: “Are mooncakes as delicious as cookies?”

The Chinese teacher told them that mooncakes were just as appetizing as what they saw on the screen, and as tasty as cookies.

Generally speaking, this was a satisfactory Chinese lesson that students and the teacher really enjoyed, but unfortunately the teacher could not share mooncakes with students face to face.She sincerely hopes that these lovely students can enjoy the delicious mooncakes under the beautiful moonlight, truly experience the charm of Chinese traditional holiday — the Mid-Autumn Festival.

当地时间2020年10月8日,里加64中学汉语初级班的学生迎来了一节期待已久的线上汉语课。受疫情影响,汉语课只能在线上举行。经过汉语教师志愿者符瑾儿与该校负责人jana的多次协调,最终决定在ZOOM平台上开展汉语课程的教学。

这不仅是里加64中学汉语初级班学生的第一次汉语课,也是一节别具韵味的“中秋节”文化课。在这节课上,学生学会了简单的打招呼用语,了解了中秋节的来源,中秋节的习俗以及月饼的种类。学生们对各种口味的月饼特别感兴趣,汉语教师在屏幕前给他们展示了传统的广式口味月饼,一位学生很开心,他兴奋地问道:“月饼是不是和cookie一样好吃?”

汉语教师告诉他们,月饼就和他们在屏幕上看到的让人食欲满满,美味程度不输cookie。

总的来说,这是一节比较圆满的汉语课,因为师生都很享受上课的过程,但遗憾的是不能现场和学生分享月饼这种传统美食,希望这些可爱的学生,可以在月圆之夜品尝到美味的月饼,实实在在地感受到中国传统节日——中秋节的魅力。
