The only resources designed for the Cambridge IGCSE(R) Chinese as a
First Language syllabus (0509). Take an active approach to first
language Chinese with activities that reinforce language learning and
expand vocabulary and idioms. The coursebook focuses on building
students' reading and writing skills through real Mandarin Chinese texts
about different topics, such as Chinese philosophers and sport. It also
provides opportunities to develop essential life skills including
creative thinking, communication and problem solving. At the end of the
course, students should be able to critically analyse literary work
written in Chinese and demonstrate a strong writing ability. Suggested
answers to the coursebook questions are in the teacher's book.
