    A set of bookmarks for some of the best websites I've found when looking for resources to use in next terms China-themed unit of work. They include online and downloadable resources for learning to speak Chinese and read and write Mandarin, studying social issues in China and current events like the Sìchuān earthquake and the Olympic Games.

  • Chinese Order Stroke
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      Great for IWB's!
  • Hand Writing Recognition
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This is a good way for students to check if their Chinese writing is legible. If the computer can't guess at what it may be, maybe they need to keep working at it. Built for success and great for interactive whiteboards.
  • Chinese Annotation Tool
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This tool takes a sentence in Chinese (not pinyin unfortunately) and gives an English or French translation for every word individually. Very good for breaking up sentences into small parts, for analysing word-order and for students to check their writing.

  • Chinese Annoted News
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      Great for more advanced students. This site gives small news stories and any word that is hovered over is translated into pinyin and English.
  • Chinese Dictionary NEW
    • Rob McTaggart
       
      This is one of the best Chinese-English dictionaries on the internet, when you consider that so many of the words have audio and an animation of the stroke order for writing.
  •  
    This is a fantastic resource for any classroom learning Chinese or about China. The dictionary pinyin with tones as well as simplified and traditional writing, an animation of the order stroke for many words and audio of how the word should be spoken. There is also other resources such as practice sheets for writing, a translator, and other stuff for kids and the classroom.
