Nǐ Hǎo to Friday's MSU Visitors

On Friday a dozen or so MSU students from China will shuttle to PHS to visit our class, which will be held in the library after lunch.  Don't forget we will have first lunch Friday in order to give us time to get organized in the library.

PLEASE be in school Friday and have your photo hunt blog post completed and posted!  We will have a set of chrome books so that we can share our posts with our visitors, but first we will introduce ourselves in small groups and get to know something about each other.  Think about questions you would like to ask the MSU students by class time on Wednesday so we can talk about possible questions.

I don't know if the MSUstudents have ever visited an American high school, but it's likely they have not.  You are ambassadors, and I am proud they will be meeting you!  Let's make them feel welcome. They will remember your sincerity, your manners, and the personal interest you show them.   AND...they will form an opinion about American high school students based on their visit here.

On Friday, I'd love for you to talk in your small groups about your most meaningful picture and how it makes you feel.  We'll ask our visitors to suggest a Chinese character that could represent that picture, something we could add to our collage.

This should be fun.  I am really looking forward to the experience.  The MSU China Programs office was so pleased to learn about your email exchange program that they are providing the shuttle to make this happen and will likely stay and join us.  Let's have fun and make the most of our time with them!
