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.
