Chinese learning is becoming more and more important in Thailand.From kindergartens,primary schools,middle schools,universities to various social classes,educational institutions at all levels have launched Chinese teaching.At present,Chinese teaching in most schools and institutions in Thailand is still in its infancy.Schools hope to carry out colorful extracurricular activities in order to attract more students to study Chinese.Chinese extracurricular activities are closely related to classroom teaching,and pay more attention to the cultivation of students' innovative thinking.It is an indispensable auxiliary form for students to master Chinese knowledge and acquire Chinese application ability as soon as possible.It uses "classroom learning,extracurricular use" to consolidate the knowledge learned.In extra-curricular activities,the clear language knowledge acquired in the classroom will be transformed into Tacit language knowledge,students will change from passive learning to active learning,cultivate interest in learning Chinese,stimulate the desire to engage in Chinese work,and improve Chinese communicative competence.Based on my own teaching experience in Thailand and
