Dear SIS Families,
We are excited to highlight our School Without Walls (SWW) program, which our students from G4 and older are taking part in this week. At SIS, we believe that experiential learning is essential to your children's life. We take them out of the typical classroom setting and engage them further in their inquiry using the community resources, here in China or overseas. Through hands-on projects, field trips, and service activities, students develop critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills. This innovative approach not only makes learning engaging but also prepares our children to tackle real-life challenges. Enjoy some photos of Day 1 SWW from our G4 and G5 explorers.
亲爱的家长,
我们很高兴向大家介绍“学习无边境之旅”(SWW)项目,本周我校四年级及以上年级的学生参与了这一活动。在SIS,我们深信体验式学习对孩子们的成长至关重要。我们让学生走出传统教室,利用中国国内和海外的社区资源,深入探究各类课题。通过动手项目、实地考察和服务活动,学生们培养了批判性思维、创造力和协作能力。这种创新的学习方式不仅让学习更有趣,还帮助孩子们为应对现实生活中的挑战做好准备。请欣赏四、五年级同学们SWW第一天的精彩照片!
Jingshan Planet Protectors:
Paving the Way for Sustainability in EY!
鲸山校区的“地球小卫士”:
为幼儿阶段的可持续发展铺路!
Our early years students have embraced their new role as Planet Protectors in support of our school-wide sustainability goal. Each day, a student takes on this important role, ensuring sustainable practices happen on campus, like caring for the plants, turning off lights, and conserving energy by keeping doors closed. This initiative aims to help raise their environmental awareness and instill a sense of responsibility in our young learners. Our aim is that these small actions make a lasting impact on our young learners, shaping a greener future for all. Let's continue to nurture these Planet Protectors.
我们幼儿阶段的学生已积极投入“地球小卫士”的角色,支持全校的可持续发展目标。每天会有一位学生担任这一重要角色,确保校园内的可持续实践得以落实,例如照顾植物、关灯、关门以节约能源。这一举措旨在提高学生的环保意识,帮助他们从小培养责任感。希望这些微小的行动能对我们的幼儿产生持久影响,共同塑造一个更绿色的未来。让我们继续支持这些地球小卫士吧!
KGFIP Spatial Exploration Project
KGFIP班级空间探索项目
In our Where We Are in Place and Time unit, KGFIP students embarked on an exciting journey to create a map of their classroom.
The project began with each student drawing their interpretation of the classroom, followed by collaborative discussions to identify key elements for the map. This teamwork highlighted the importance of organizing space effectively.
Students then constructed LEGO models in small groups, fostering communication and creativity. They analyzed their designs using the See/Think/Wonder technique, enhancing their understanding of two-dimensional shapes and top-down perspectives.
The highlight was creating a collective model and sprinkling flour over it to capture imprints, which served as a top-down view for their final map.
Next, students will dive into map legends and symbols in their Literacy course, reinforcing their visual communication skills. This project has been a fantastic blend of reflection, teamwork, and creativity, leaving a lasting impact on our young learners!
Dans notre unité Où nous sommes dans le temps et l'espace, les élèves de KGFIP ont entrepris un projet passionnant pour créer une carte de leur classe.
Le projet a commencé par le dessin de chaque élève représentant leur interprétation de la classe, suivi de discussions collaboratives pour identifier les éléments clés à inclure sur la carte. Ce travail d'équipe a mis en lumière l'importance d'organiser l'espace efficacement.
Les élèves ont ensuite construit des modèles LEGO en petits groupes, favorisant la communication et la créativité. Ils ont analysé leurs conceptions en utilisant la technique Regarder/Réfléchir/Se poser des questions, ce qui a enrichi leur compréhension des formes bidimensionnelles et des perspectives de vue de dessus.
Le point culminant a été la création d'un modèle collectif, sur lequel ils ont saupoudré de la farine pour capturer des empreintes, servant de vue de dessus pour leur carte finale.
La prochaine étape consistera à explorer les légendes et les symboles des cartes dans leur cours de maîtrise de la langue, renforçant ainsi leurs compétences en communication visuelle. Ce projet a été une merveilleuse combinaison de réflexion, de travail d'équipe et de créativité, laissant une empreinte durable sur nos jeunes apprenants !
在“我们身处的时间和地点”单元中,KGFIP班级的学生踏上了一段激动人心的旅程,尝试绘制自己教室的地图。
项目从每位学生绘制自己对教室的理解图开始,随后通过小组讨论确定地图上的关键元素。这种团队合作展示了如何有效地组织空间的重要性。
接下来,学生们分小组用乐高积木构建模型,增强了沟通与创造力。他们运用了“观察/思考/疑问”技术分析自己的设计,从而加深了对二维形状和俯视角度的理解。
项目的亮点是学生们创建了一个集体模型,并在其上撒上面粉来捕捉印记,形成了他们最终地图的俯视图。
接下来,学生们将在语言课程中深入学习地图的图例和符号,加强他们的视觉沟通能力。这一项目完美结合了反思、团队合作与创造力,给我们的年轻学习者留下了深刻的印象!
ASA in Focus:
Gecko Gardeners at TB and JS
ASA课后活动班焦点:
太子湾校区与鲸山校区的Gecko Gardeners课程
For this school year, the Gecko Gardeners ASA was launched at The Bay by Ms. Leda and Ms. Zoe and at the Jingshan Campus by Mr. Cruz and Ms. Lora. Each week, students connect with nature, learn valuable skills, and foster a sense of responsibility.
Our early years students are learning about science concepts, such as how warmth helps seeds and plants grow. Our gardeners at The Bay visit the different gardening areas around the campus and plant vegetable seeds, herbs, and flowering plants. Gardening has always been a part of our after-school activities and we will continue to offer them throughout the year. Mr.Renier is also actively involved in these initiatives as he leads the school towards securing the Green Flag status for SIS. Join us!
本学年,太子湾校区的Ms. Leda和Ms. Zoe以及鲸山校区的Mr. Cruz和Ms. Lora启动了Gecko Gardeners ASA课后活动班。每周,学生们与大自然亲密接触,学习宝贵的技能,培养责任感。
我们的幼儿部学生正在学习科学概念,例如温度如何帮助种子和植物生长。太子湾的学生们会到校园各个种植区域,种下蔬菜种子、草药和开花植物。园艺活动一直以来都是我们课后活动的一部分,今年我们也将继续提供这一活动。此外,Mr.Renier也积极参与这些项目,他正带领学校朝着获得绿色旗帜认证的目标迈进。欢迎大家加入!
Jingshan Parent Book Study:
Enhancing Writing and Math in EY
鲸山校区家长读书会:
提升幼儿阶段的写作和数学能力
Jingshan teachers have been examining two books, "Already Ready" and "Playful Mathematics" to support Writing and Mathematics in our Early Years. We extended this study to parents through a book study series, and together, we are looking at ways to nurture our children's growth and development at home.
Here are some tips to blend Math and Writing to inspire creativity and learning:
