I have designed a series of 20-subject cross-curricular materials with the Mandarin Chinese subject. We used them in the months leading up to the Chinese New Year and yielded good results.
Each material is just a simple 5-10 minute video with a 3R discussion (Retell, relate, reflect). Here is a free sample of music-Chinese material.
If you are interested, please see my resource titled “20-subject cross-curricular with Chinese”.

This resource can help GCSE Chinese learner to prepare for speaking. Teachers can use them in steps:
Step 1 - teach students to identify question words
Step 2 - students predict possible questions under different topics, e.g. music
Step 3 - use the created mindmap per topic to practise answering these questions with extended response.
This resource contains an editable Word file of 6 pages for each year group. Each page contains can-do statements for a half-term. Students can use them to review and reflect.
The content follows the Mandarin Excellence Programme, mostly aligning with Jinbu 1, Jinbu 2 and Edexcel GCSE Chapter 1-3.

This resource contains top-mark tips summarised as A.C.T.I.O.N. Students can use this as a checklist, along with the marking criteria when practising essay writing.
A = Adjectives (use a range of adjectives in the writing to showcase the range of vocabulary. Also, adjectives tend to imply opinions, which is another requirement of essay writing)
C = Connectives and comparatives
T = Time frames
I = Intensifiers (adverbs that intensify the verbs and adjectives)
O = Opinions and justifications
N = Negatives
This pack contains exam practice questions that I designed over the last year. All questions are similar to Pre U exam.
