Download or read book Remembering Simplified Hanzi 1 written by James W. Heisig and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At long last the approach that has helped thousands of learners memorize Japanese kanji has been adapted to help students with Chinese characters. Book 1 of Remembering Simplified Hanzi covers the writing and meaning of the 1,000 most commonly used characters in the simplified Chinese writing system, plus another 500 that are best learned at an early stage. (Book 2 adds another 1,500 characters for a total of 3,000.) Of critical importance to the approach found in these pages is the systematic arranging of characters in an order best suited to memorization. In the Chinese writing system, strokes and simple components are nested within relatively simple characters, which can, in turn, serve as parts of more complicated characters and so on. Taking advantage of this allows a logical ordering, making it possible for students to approach most new characters with prior knowledge that can greatly facilitate the learning process. Guidance and detailed instructions are provided along the way. Students are taught to employ "imaginative memory" to associate each character’s component parts, or "primitive elements," with one another and with a key word that has been carefully selected to represent an important meaning of the character. This is accomplished through the creation of a "story" that engagingly ties the primitive elements and key word together. In this way, the collections of dots, strokes, and components that make up the characters are associated in memorable fashion, dramatically shortening the time required for learning and helping to prevent characters from slipping out of memory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How much time does a learner need to spend learning to write Chinese characters? Do you need to write every Chinese character that you learn? How many times do you need to write a Chinese character? Is it effective to write a full page of the same Chinese character repeatedly? How to remember all the strokes in a Chinese character easily? Your child will be able to Identify the PARTS (strokes and Chinese Alphabets) in Chinese characters. This will help to build a strong foundation for higher learning Learn in MULTIPLE WAYS - tracing, colouring, writing, visualising (or choose one way that suits your child) Understand the MEANING of the Chinese characters through PICTURES. (Pronunciation and English meaning included) Develop hand dexterity to write big and small characters (or focus on big characters first and finish the small characters later) CONTENT OF GET READY FOR SCHOOL CHINESE WORKBOOK 1 (EASY) 47 Chinese characters NOT more than 6 strokes (with 1 to 3 parts) Pictures for colouring Activities to recall characters learnt Blank handwriting papers METHODOLOGY Many learners dread Chinese writing drills - repeating pages and pages of the same Chinese characters. Writing can be fun if done moderately and in varied ways. Your child will be engaged because we Limit writing exercises to about 10 repetitions per character Create varied activities (e.g. varying word sizes, alternating between similar-looking characters, creating tracing and colouring options) Present strokes in cartoons with easy-to-remember names Provide more than one way to learn - trace, colour, write, visualise If your purpose is to develop the ability to RECALL the Chinese characters you learn, writing the characters is only one way to register them in your mind. More importantly, you need to be able to VISUALISE it, that is able to see the components in the character, how they are combined and the order they are combined. In our books, we teach Chinese characters broken down into PARTS (not strokes only). A part can be a stroke or a Chinese Alphabet. A Chinese Alphabet is a repetitive component that is made up of 2 to 6 strokes. Learning Chinese Alphabets before learning Chinese characters helps to reduce memory work - don’t remember a character by disintegrated strokes, remember it by PARTS (strokes and alphabets) and do it systematically. VISUALISE CHINESE CHARACTERS Look out for the “LEARN CHINESE VISUALLY (1 to 10)” series of books to help children visualise strokes, Chinese Alphabets and characters in COLOURS! LEARN CHINESE VISUALLY (FOUNDATION SERIES) BOOK 1: MEET THE STROKES IN CHINESE CHARACTERS BOOK 2: COUNT IN CHINESE AND ENGLISH BOOK 3: MEET THE CHINESE ALPHABETS BOOK 4: 32 TEAMS OF CHINESE ALPHABETS BOOK 5: MORE CHINESE ALPHABETS BOOK 6: MY FIRST WORDS BOOK 7: HOW TO ‘SPELL’ CHINESE WORDS BOOK 8: MORE WAYS TO ‘SPELL’ CHINESE WORDS BOOK 9: UNIQUE WAYS TO 'SPELL' CHINESE WORDS BOOK 10: HOW TO GUESS THE MEANING OF CHINESE WORDS FREE eBOOK In view of the Covid-19 situation when many children have to stay home to study, we decided to make the e-version of Workbook 1 FREE for parents to download and print for their children to practise.
