Summary
Details

Help your students unlock the rich world of Chinese language and culture with the Journey to the West Teacher's Guide. This comprehensive textbook is designed for educators seeking to introduce students to one of China's most beloved literary works.

It draws on the first three books - The Rise of the Monkey King, Trouble in Heaven and The Immortal Peaches - in the best-selling Journey to the West series written by Jeff Pepper and Xiao Hui Wang, covering the first 7 chapters of the original novel by Wu Cheng'en.

This Teacher's Guide provides 59 classroom lessons that combine language and cultural learning. It includes detailed explanations of key vocabulary, grammar points, and idiomatic expressions, plus a variety of activities encouraging critical thinking and language practice.

Through the classic adventurous tale of the monk Tangseng, the troublemaking monkey Sun Wukong and their traveling companions, your students will explore ancient Chinese mythology, philosophy, and traditions while sharpening their language skills.

If you are teaching intermediate or advanced Chinese, this guide helps bring the magic of Journey to the West into your classroom. It's perfect for both experienced teachers and those new to Chinese language instruction.

This book is for teacher use, with exercises that can be freely photocopied for classroom work and homework assignments.

Students should use the three source books, The Rise of the Monkey King, Trouble in Heaven and The Immortal Peaches, or a single larger book, Journey to the West, Books 1, 2 and 3, which contains all the same material as the 3 individual books. All are available in both paperback and ebook formats.
