Video: The Boy Who Cried Wolf

Teachers can begin by playing the video once so students understand the story. During a second viewing, pause to highlight useful vocabulary such as 男孩 (boy), 狼 (wolf), 说谎 (to lie), 帮忙 (help), and 农夫 (farmer). Students can notice how these words repeat throughout the story, which helps reinforce comprehension.

After watching, students can retell the story using pictures or sequence cards. Another simple activity is to ask students to discuss the moral of the story and describe what the boy should have done differently. These activities encourage students to use Mandarin to express ideas rather than simply memorize vocabulary.
