The Ni Hao textbooks feature a wide range of situational settings and vocabulary to encourage Chinese practice in everyday activities. Each lesson presents conversations as illustrated scripts that facilitate role-playing and help students put their communicative skills into action. Engaging additional sections clearly explain new vocabulary and language usage, character stroke order, and Chinese culture. Songs, rhymes, tongue twisters, cartoons, stories, and interesting features of Chinese characters tie it all together and make learning fun.
Each simplified-character edition of the Ni Hao textbook includes a language-learning CD-ROM bound into the book. Based on the popular Ni Hao Personal Language Lab CD-ROMs, this software allows students to listen to passages from the textbook and supply their own responses. The software’s language recognition capability can evaluate a student’s responses and provide valuable feedback.
The Ni Hao series includes textbooks, workbooks, and teacher's handbooks as well as great supplements like audio CDs, language learning software, and games software.
Features
- The series uses Chinese characters from the beginning to reinforce reading and writing skills.
- Pinyin appears above Chinese characters as a pronunciation guide; as students learn more and more characters, the pinyin for previously learned characters is omitted.
- Students learn to read various print fonts and handwritten scripts by working with authentic printed and handwritten materials.
- The four-volume series introduces over 500 written characters, and many more vocabulary words and phrases.
- This series is available in either traditional or simplified characters. A Chinese-English appendix at the back of each textbook includes both character forms.
