Unit 7: A Bite of China
Hey there! I'm super excited to share with you all about Unit 7 from our English textbook. This unit was all about food and cuisine from different parts of China. As a major foodie, I found it really fascinating to learn about the diverse flavors and dishes my country has to offer.
The unit kicked off with a listening exercise where we heard a conversation between two students, Lisa and David, discussing their favorite Chinese dishes. Lisa loved noodles, especially wonton noodle soup, while David was a big fan of dumplings. Their chat made my mouth water!
After that, we read a short passage introducing some of the most iconic Chinese dishes like Peking roast duck, dim sum, hot pot, and more. I didn't realize how many delicious foods originated from different regions across China. The photos alongside the descriptions looked scrumptious.
My personal favorite part was learning about the eight regional cuisines of China - Anhui, Cantonese, Fujian, Hunan, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, and Zhejiang cuisine. Each one has its own unique flavors, cooking techniques, and signature dishes.
The Sichuan cuisine really caught my attention with its bold, spicy, and tongue-numbing flavors from liberal use of chilies and Sichuan peppercorns. The kung pao chicken is probably Sichuan's most well-known dish internationally. I volunteered to bring a sample of dan dan noodles for our class food tasting and everyone raved about how delicious yet spicy they were!
In contrast, the Cantonese cuisine from the Guangdong province is quite mild and subtle, focusing on fresh ingredients and simple preparation to let the natural flavors shine through. Dim sum is a quintessential example, with small plates like shrimp dumplings, barbecue pork buns, and egg tarts. Our teacher brought in some dim sum from a local restaurant and we got to sample all the different varieties.
The Hunan cuisine was also quite spicy, but in a different way than the Sichuan style. It tends to incorporate fresh chilies, shallots, and garlic as more of a bright, refreshing type of spice. Some popular Hunan dishes we learned about were stewed pork
hoof and dry pot chicken. Maybe a little too adventurous for my taste buds!
We watched a video introducing the different types of Chinese staple foods like rice, noodles, steamed buns, pancakes, and dumplings. I was amazed by the sheer variety, from long noodles to short noodles, thick noodles to thin noodle strands. And the many different shapes and fillings of dumplings! We then did an exercise matching descriptions to photos of the different staple dishes.
For the unit project, we formed small groups and each group chose one of the regional cuisines to explore deeper. My group picked the Shandong cuisine, known for its braised and stewed protein dishes. We had to research some typical cooking methods, key ingredients, and representative dishes then present to the class. We brought in samples of Shandong braised chicken for everyone to try.
The unit wrapped up with a fun food-themed dialogue and role-play exercise. We worked in pairs to act out a scene of ordering food at a Chinese restaurant. My partner and I really hammed it up with putting on accents and everything. The whole class cracked up!
Overall, this unit was a delicious exploration into the amazing flavors and culinary diversity of Chinese food. My biggest takeaway is that China's vast geography and ethnic diversity has cultivated such a rich variety of regional cooking styles and specialties. I have a newfound appreciation for the history and culture behind the dishes.
I can't wait to go on more delicious adventures learning about international cuisines. But for now, I'm quite content being a proud ambassador of Chinese cuisine! I'll leave you with one of my favorite Chinese proverbs: "" (Dietary life is of prime importance). Let's eat!

Unit 7: A School Party
Hey there! It's me again, ready to share my thoughts on the latest unit we covered in our English class. This time, it was all about planning and organizing a school party – how exciting! As a fifth-grader, nothing gets me more pumped up than the prospect of a fun-filled celebration at school.
The unit kicked off with a dialogue between two students, Amy and Tom, discussing the upcoming school party. Right from the start, I could feel the anticipation building up as they talked
about the different activities and preparations needed. Amy seemed to be the more organized one, suggesting they make a checklist to ensure everything runs smoothly.
One of the first tasks they mentioned was deciding on a theme for the party. This got me thinking about all the cool possibilities – maybe a beach party, a space adventure, or even a time travel extravaganza! Personally, I'm leaning towards a superhero theme because who doesn't love dressing up as their favorite crime-fighting hero?
Next up, they talked about making decorations and props. I could already picture myself crafting all sorts of funky decorations out of colorful paper, streamers, and balloons. I might even try my hand at some origami to create intricate centerpieces for the tables. The possibilities are endless!
But wait, there's more! They also discussed planning games and activities to keep everyone entertained. This is where my imagination really started running wild. I can see us organizing relay races, scavenger hunts, and maybe even a talent show for the brave souls who want to showcase their skills.
Of course, no party would be complete without food and drinks. Amy and Tom mentioned setting up a snack bar, which got my taste buds tingling. I'm already dreaming of all the
delicious treats we could have – from savory finger foods to sweet cupcakes and everything in between.
As the dialogue progressed, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and responsibility. Organizing an event like this takes a lot of teamwork and cooperation, and I'm thrilled to be a part of it. I can already envision myself working alongside my classmates, dividing up tasks, and ensuring everything runs like a well-oiled machine.
One aspect that really caught my attention was the importance of inviting guests and sending out invitations. I mean, what's a party without guests, right? I can't wait to design creative invitations that will get everyone pumped up and eager to attend.
But amidst all the fun and excitement, there's also a practical side to consider. Amy and Tom discussed setting up a clean-up committee to ensure the party venue is left spick and span after the festivities. As responsible students, we all need to pitch in and do our part to leave the place as we found it (or maybe even better!).
As the unit progressed, we delved deeper into the
nitty-gritty details of party planning. We learned about making banners, arranging seating, and even setting up a stage for
performances. It was like we were getting a crash course in event management, and I couldn't be more thrilled!
Throughout the lessons, our teacher encouraged us to work collaboratively, share ideas, and take on different roles and responsibilities. This hands-on approach really drove home the importance of teamwork and organization when it comes to pulling off a successful event.
Of course, no English unit would be complete without a healthy dose of vocabulary and grammar practice. We learned all sorts of party-related words and phrases, like "decorate," "arrange," "prepare," and "tidy up." I even picked up a few idioms and expressions, like "party animal" and "the life of the party."
But it wasn't just about memorizing words; we also practiced using them in context through various activities and exercises. We had conversations, wrote scripts, and even acted out little skits to reinforce our understanding of the language.
As we neared the end of the unit, our excitement reached a fever pitch. We were practically bursting at the seams, eager to put all our planning and preparation into action. And let me tell you, when the day of the party finally arrived, it was everything we'd hoped for and more!
The decorations were on point, the games were a blast, and the snacks were simply delicious. But what really made the party unforgettable was the sense of camaraderie and teamwork that we'd cultivated throughout the unit. We all worked together seamlessly, ensuring that every aspect of the event ran smoothly.
As I looked around at my classmates, laughing and having a grand old time, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. We did it! We pulled off an amazing party, all while learning valuable English skills and lessons about collaboration and organization.
In the end, the party was just the icing on the cake. The real victory was in the journey we took to get there – a journey filled with learning, laughter, and unforgettable memories that will stick with me for years to come.
So, there you have it – my take on our adventures in Unit 7. From planning and preparation to execution and clean-up, we tackled it all like true party pros. And who knows, maybe someday we'll even get to plan a party on a grander scale, like a school festival or a community event. But for now, I'm just basking in the afterglow of a job well done and looking forward to whatever exciting challenges our English classes have in store for us next.

Unit 7 - A Day's Wait
Hi there! My name is Lily and I'm a 5th grader. I've just finished studying Unit 7 in our PEP English textbook, and I wanted to share my thoughts on it. This unit was all about a short story called "A Day's Wait" by Ernest Hemingway. At first, I wasn't too excited about reading a whole story in English, but it actually turned out to be really interesting!
The story is about a young boy named Schatz who gets sick with a fever while on a trip with his father. His dad reads that his temperature is 102 degrees Fahrenheit (around 39 degrees Celsius). But Schatz misunderstands and thinks his temperature is in Celsius, which would be over 100 degrees - a
life-threatening fever! Poor Schatz spends the whole day quietly waiting to die, showing great courage. His father doesn't realize Schatz's misunderstanding until the end.
I really felt for Schatz in this story. Can you imagine being a little kid and thinking you only have one day left to live? That must have been so scary for him. But he was still very brave about it and didn't complain at all. I admired his patience and
positive attitude even when facing something so terrifying. It reminded me of how mature kids can be sometimes.
The story also made me think about how easily misunderstandings can happen, especially between adults and kids or people who speak different languages. Poor Schatz and his dad had such a huge miscommunication just because of the difference between Fahrenheit and Celsius! It's a good lesson on the importance of really listening to each other carefully.
I enjoyed analyzing the characters too. Schatz's dad doesn't seem like a bad guy - he clearly loves his son and is worried about his health. But you can tell he's not always the best at expressing his feelings openly. Maybe that's why the misunderstanding wasn't cleared up sooner. As for Schatz himself, even though he's just a kid, he comes across as very wise and accepting of his perceived fate. The story doesn't give too many details about their relationship, but it seems like a meaningful one despite the lack of constant communication.
Studying this story was great practice for my reading comprehension and analytical skills. I had to think critically about things like the characters' motivations, the symbolic meaning of the title (a "day's wait" referring to Schatz's patient outlook on death), and the themes of courage, family, and overcoming
language barriers. My classmates and I had some really interesting discussions interpreting different aspects of the story.
The textbook also had vocabulary and grammar exercises related to the story that reinforced what we were learning. There were lots of useful words and phrases about health, misunderstandings, emotions, and family relationships. The grammar focused on things like reported speech (how to convey what someone said) and conditional sentences (describing hypothetical situations), which came up a lot in the story.
Overall, I'm really glad we studied "A Day's Wait" for this unit. Even though the premise seems kind of sad at first, it's an inspiring tale about perseverance, perspective, and intergenerational bonds. Reading level-appropriate literature is such a great way for English learners like me to build vocabulary and comprehension skills. Thanks to this story, I've gotten better at inferring meaning from context, identifying themes and character motivations, and applying grammar rules I've learned. I'm proud of the progress I've made and excited to take on the next unit!。
