“The 19^th anniversary week for the nationwide popularization of mandarin” arises in the 3^rd week of September 2016, and Tanghu  Elementary School took an active part in it with three measures: To speak standard mandarin, to write Chinese ideograph, to be a civilized person.

First, teachers and students should speak mandarin with standard pronunciation and intonation every day and everywhere at school; whenever in class, during the recess or in some school activities.

Second, everyone should write the Chinese ideograph step by step to show Chinese traditional characters honestly and upright. All of the pupils from the first grade in our school are impelled to learn Chinese beginning with good pronunciation of every single Chinese phonetic transcript and writing every strokes of a Chinese character well.

Third, let’s help each other with standard mandarin, trying to be a polite and civilized person.

Furthermore, the young pioneers from Tanghu  Elementary School went into some social communities and institutions to communicate with those lovely people in mandarin, which conveyed their kindness and goodness adequately.

Tanghu Elementary   School plays a great role in the popularization of mandarin with many effective actions. Let’s all speak mandarin so as to create a more harmonious society!
