新学期团建周

“倾听”是清华附中国际部“部落式学习”中的部落协议之一。七年级的语文课上，我们通过“听”的繁体字的拼字和解字活动，帮助学生深入地理解“倾听”的方式和意义。学生们在课堂反思日志中这样写到：“今天的语文课让我懂得了倾听，不仅要用耳朵听，还要对说话者有眼神的交流，要身体微微前倾，全神贯注，一心一意地听。”“倾听的时候，要心随眼动；眼走了，心也走；眼到了，心也到了。““擅长倾听，是一个人非常宝贵的一种品质，是对说话者的尊重，也是一个人自身素质和修养的体现。”

“Attentive listening” is one of the agreements of THIS “Tribes learning.”. In Grade 7 Chinese classes, we helped students recognize and learn the ways and meaning of “listening” through spelling and decoding traditional Chinese characters. Students wrote in their class reflection journals the following sentences: “Today’s Chinese class taught me how to listen, not just with ears, but also the importance of having eye contact with the speaker, and listen wholeheartedly.” “When you are listening, your mind should move with your eyes; when you are not looking, you are not thinking about what the other person is saying; and vice versa. ”  “Being a good listener is a valuable quality, a respect for the speaker, and a reflection of one’s own quality and manners.”

学生们一直致力于学习团队合作和课堂分享的能力。他们用乐高积木、木块和图案积木与新结识的朋友们一起创作。他们还在益智桌游KaPow和Spot It中互相学习。这真是太棒了！

Students have been learning on how to work as a team and share in the classroom. Students were creative using LEGO, wooden blocks, and pattern blocks to build with their friends. Together, they worked on taking turns during literacy games like KaPow and Spot It. It’s been an amazing first few weeks in Grade One White!

在开学的第二周，同学们以“我们的班级是一个家庭”为主题进行了团建。同学们探讨了对“家”的定义如何能从“小家”扩展到“学校大家庭”，在一个班级里我们应该像家人一样互相支持。学生们选了一张班级照片，并围绕“你喜欢我们班级大家庭里的什么？”进行写作。

在与全班同学分享了他们自己的感悟后，我觉得写作分享很好地帮助学生们建立了“班级大家庭”的概念，使他们像一家人一样共同学习、成长！

During the second week of school, our class read aloud ”Our Class is a Family.”  We explored how a family can extend beyond people we are related to and into our communities like school. We discussed why our class is also a family, and what we do to support each other like a family. Students then continued their exploration by gluing a class photo onto a  worksheet, and answering the question, “What do you like about our class family?”

I felt that this activity was accessible and easily connected to other parts of our Community Building. After sharing their own families with the class, I felt that the read aloud nicely connected the idea of family to how our class is a family and as a community we learn and grow together.

在团建中，同学们通过设立面试问题，然后彼此提问来更了解对方。这项活动引导学生通过参与“社区树”计划来了解我们的学校，并让学生们更深入的了解学校的核心价值观。在团建中，他们还合作完成了埃及数学项目，制作了单词地图，并参与了互动阅读活动。

Our Interview Project which is designed to get to know their classmates even more by through interviewing.  The students developed interview questions and interviewed a fellow classmate. This activity then led students to the Community Tree Project where they learned about our school community. In addition, the students were able to reinforce their community building skills by doing academic work related directly to our core values and community-building values themselves solidifying their understanding of what being a constructive member of a community means. They collaboratively worked on their Egyptian math projects, made Word Maps together for our first Word Works unit of study, and engaged in interactive reading activities.

学生们在美术课上做了有趣的手工。学生们通过剪纸、拼贴来进行艺术创作。当我把所有学生的作品摆到一起时，不禁赞叹学生们的创造力！

The first and second graders worked on a “Community Paper Quilt” in art class. The students created paper quilt squares using a circular design which was cut into pieces. The final quilt with work from all three classes will be assembled together.

在十二年级A班的中文课上，通过有趣的“你比划我来猜”活动，同学们对课程内容形成了初步了解。每组同学自行分工为“表演者”和“抢答者”，表演者通过肢体语言和描述表现词条，抢答者试着猜出答案，五组题目中的词条都来自这一学年中文课上将要学到的新知识。在这个活动中，同学们充分发挥了自己的创造力，课堂气氛也十分热烈。对一些尚不熟悉的词条的表演往往让大家忍俊不禁，却又对这些新鲜的人名和概念产生更多好奇，同学们对新学期的中文课程充满期待。

In the G12 Chinese class, students learned more about the class content through games of “Charades”. Each group of students divided into “actors” and “guessers”. The actors used body language to describe a word while the guesser guessed. The words selected for this activity are part of the required vocabulary from grade 12 Chinese class. The acting for some unfamiliar words made students laugh, at the same time they are curious about these new words and concepts. Students are looking forward to learning Chinese this new semester！
