High School Chinese II

Chinese II - High School builds on the foundation students develop in Chinese I, helping them expand their vocabulary, strengthen their understanding of grammar, and communicate more confidently in listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

Each unit introduces new vocabulary and grammar concepts and includes reading and listening activities, speaking and writing practice, multimedia cultural presentations, and interactive exercises that reinforce learning. The course emphasizes real-life context and simple conversational examples so students see how the language is used naturally.

Character recognition and writing practice become an important part of the course. Students learn several new characters in each unit, while pinyin continues to be used alongside characters to support listening and reading comprehension.

Students actively build a broader vocabulary, use a variety of grammar patterns, participate in conversations, and respond appropriately to common prompts. They also explore cultural practices and perspectives across Chinese-speaking regions and complete regular assessments to track their progress.
