成都墨尔文学校中西融合创新教育成果-“探索世界日”报告日活动！

　　近日，2020-21学年度小学部“探索世界日”报告日活动取得了圆满成功！成都市新津区教育局副局长梁庆，党组副书记梁鹏飞，招考中心副主任周永良也来指导交流。

　　Recently Primary School's ‘Exploring the World’ Day for the 2020-21 academic year ended as a resounding success. Senior government officials and principals from other schools have also joined the event.

　　本学年初，成都墨尔文学校小学部“探索世界部”与所有小学各学科老师根据不同年级学生日常学术发展情况，在“以学生为中心”的前提下，经过反复讨论、推敲，研发，为每个年级制定了不同主题的跨学科主题式教学活动和全年计划。

　　At the beginning of this academic year, after much discussion, consideration, and research, the Primary School’s ‘Exploring the World’ Department together with all the primary school teachers developed student-centered, interdisciplinary activities based on various themes, as well as year-round plans for students in each grade based on their daily academic development.

　　跨学科教学对学校各学科老师们的学术能力要求特别高，每个老师首先要做到对自己学科大纲及课程标准了如指掌，对学生的各项能力评估准确到位，才能更好的和各学科老师共同配合支持学生的主题探索学习。在探索的过程中，做到真正的“以学生为中心”，我们所有的驱动问题都来自于孩子们对主题的好奇。例如一年级清明节的探索过程中，有一个学生问：“中国有清明节，那么别的国家的人过不过清明节呢？” 另一个学生回答：“应该是有的，我们虽然在不同的国家，但是因为有相同对亲人朋友的情感，所以可能有相似的节日。” 通过这些对话，老师们洞察到了孩子们的好奇，探索自然而然地开始了。

　　Interdisciplinary teaching requires a high level of academic competence from all teachers in the school. Each teacher must first have a thorough understanding of the syllabus and the curriculum standards for the subject they teach. They must also be able to assess students' abilities accurately in order to better support the students' theme-exploration learning alongside teachers of other subjects. We have succeeded in arriving at a truly student-centered exploration process, and we were driven by the children's curiosity about these themes. For example, during the exploration teaching about Qingming Festival in Grade 1, one student asked, "China has Qingming Festival. Do people in other countries have it as well?" Another student replied, "Probably. Even though we are in different countries, we may have similar holidays because we have the same feelings for our family members and friends." Through these conversations, the teachers gained an-insight into what the children were curious about and so, the exploration process began naturally.

　　这次探索经过两个多月的备课、立项、学习、模型制作，及ICT程序开发。在老师的指导下，学生融合中文、英文、数学、科学、艺术等多门学科，通过中英文演讲、戏剧表演、课程模型演绎、在线程序的运用等多种方式，展现课题深刻的研究内涵和外延，直观地展现了中西创新教育模式的教学成果。

　　After more than two months of advanced lesson preparation, project development, study, model-making, and ICT programme development, students, with guidance from their teachers, integrated Chinese, English, mathematics, science, art, and other subjects.  They also showed how deep and far they can go in researching different topics in various ways, for example, giving speeches in both Chinese and English, putting on drama performances, acting out curriculum models, and using online programmes to demonstrate the results of an innovative East-meets-West education model.

　　以下是各年级当天主题探索的相关介绍：

　　The following is a list of topics by each grade:

Grade1

一年级

缤纷的节日 Colorful Festivals

　　一年级学生在这一主题探索的过程中，采用问题导向式学习法（Problem/Inquiry Based Learning），通过 “提问 - 深入探究（阅读、视频提炼重要信息、聆听当地人的经历等）-小组探讨-创造及展示-反思-更多的提问” ，完成了包括对清明节、端午节、印度色彩节、威尼斯狂欢节等节日的探究活动。在展示日当天，孩子们通过戏剧、音乐、舞蹈、武术等艺术形式，带领来宾们走进一个个缤纷的节日世界。

　　Grade 1 students used the problem/inquiry-based learning approach in the exploration of this theme by asking questions, making deeper inquiries (e.g., extracting important information by reading or watching videos, listening to the experiences of local people, and so on), engaging in group discussion, creating and presenting, reflecting, and asking more questions. They completed their exploration activities on festivals such as the Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Holi, and the Carnival of Venice. On the day of the presentation, the children led the audience into a colorful world of festivities through drama, music, dance, martial arts, and other art forms.

Grade2

二年级

时间的洪流 Torrent of Time

　　同学们在第二主题探索过程中了解了古现代计时工具的发展、时间单位及时间管理等项目。还在开放日当天和家长们一起用他们亲手制作的日晷、沙漏等计时工具进行了深度的双语探究体验。最吸引家长的则为孩子在展示时间概念的形成时，利用自制的宇宙空间（“大型教室空间宇宙”及“自制宇宙模型”）清晰生动地向家长解释了时间中“天”与“月”的概念。

　　During the exploration of the second theme, the students not only learned about the development of ancient and modern timekeeping tools, units of time, and time management, but, on the day of the presentation, also had an in-depth bilingual exploration experience with their parents using their own handmade sundials, hourglasses, and other timekeeping tools. The most charming part of the presentation for parents was the children’s use of their classroom space, where they created "The Universe in a Large Classroom" and a “Self-made Model of the Universe" to clearly and vividly explain to parents the concept of "day" and "month" in time.

Grade3

三年级

水的奥秘 The Mysteries of Water

　　三年级的小朋友人人变身为“水侦探”，在老师的引导下一起探究了身体中的水、星球上的水、蔬菜瓜果中的水，他们的水足迹更遍布了海洋、河流、湿地、湖泊、以及冰川。在学习过程中，孩子们除了了解世界著名的河流、湖泊，还更深入的探究了一些国内外著名的水利工程。在展示日当天，让来宾们惊喜的是——孩子们竟可以利用自己制作的三峡水电站和美国胡弗水坝的3D模型做对比研究及专题汇报。同时，三年级的孩子们还用双语向家长们展示了水与环境保护的关系。在反思汇报时，通过展示节水设计图、节水传单和节水海报，让师生及来宾们更加重视“节约水资源”。

　　该课题也入选新津区教育局国际理解教育重点课题。

　　With the guidance of their teachers, Grade 3 students turned into "water detectives" and explored the water in their bodies, on the planet, and in vegetables and fruits. They also discovered how their water footprints spread across oceans, rivers, wetlands, lakes, and glaciers.  During the learning process, the children not only gained an understanding of the world's famous rivers and lakes but also explored in greater depth some of the famous hydraulic engineering projects at home and abroad. On the day of the presentation, what surprised the audience was how the children were able to use their self-made 3D models of the Three Gorges Hydroelectric Power Station and the Hoover Dam for a comparative study and presentation. At the same time, students used both Chinese and English to demonstrate to their parents the relationship between water and environmental protection. During the reflection part of the presentation, the children made teachers, students, and guests more aware of water conservation by showing their water conservation design drawings, flyers, and posters. The topic was also selected as a key topic in International Understanding Education by the Xinjin District Education Bureau.

Grade4

四年级

初探经济 World Economy

　　四年级学生对经济主题的探索兴趣盎然，很多孩子都把在课堂中学习到的经济知识运用到了生活中。在第二主题探索过程中，孩子们用双语学习了当今世界各个国家经济的发展，各国货币的历史以及未来货币的演变等。同时，孩子们通过各种理财类活动，在实践中逐步成为了一个个小小理财专家。学校还和实体大型银行机构实现了教学合作，银行走进校园，让孩子们沉浸式的学习和了解到了银行和金融的知识。活动当天，孩子们扮演各国代表参加模拟联合国经济贸易发展会，为自己代表的国家献上了一份经济发展的建议，家长们都为孩子们广阔的国际视野感到惊喜。

　　Grade 4 students were interested in exploring the topic of economics, and a lot of the children applied what they had learned about economics in the classroom to their own lives. During the exploration of the second theme, the children learned, in both Chinese and English, about the economic development of various countries in the world today, the history of various currencies, and the evolution of future currencies. At the same time, the children gradually practiced becoming little financial experts through various financial management activities. Also, the school realized a teaching collaboration with a famous bank, allowing the bank into the campus to give the children a more intuitive experience of banking and finance. On the day of the presentations, the children played representatives of various countries to participate in a Model United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, offering a proposal for the economic development of the country they represented. The parents were all pleasantly surprised by their children’s broad worldview.

Grade5

五年级

气候与民生 Climate and Livelihoods

　　学生在气候与民生主题探究过程中，用双语了解了天气与气候、24节气等相关科学知识，同时深入探究了全球气候变化及其产生的影响及后果；在深刻反思后，结合在各科所学知识制定了一系列解决”气候问题“的行动计划。通过调查问卷、采访及实地探究等步骤，最终完成”智能环保养老院“的终极项目。报告日当天，学生们通过结合舞蹈、音乐、武术等艺术形式向家长们展示了孩子们在这段时间的主题探索学习成果，唤起了大家的环保意识。

　　Students learned about weather and climate, the 24 solar terms, and other related scientific knowledge in Chinese and English during their exploration of the “Climate and Livelihoods” theme. They also delved into global climate change as well as its impact and consequences. After deep reflection, they developed a series of action plans to solve the “climate problem”, taking into account what they had learned through various classes. After going through the process of undertaking surveys, interviews, and fieldwork, they finally finished their ultimate project: The Smart Eco-friendly Nursing Home. On the day of their presentations, the students gave a unique drama performance in Chinese and English in front of parents that combined dance, music, martial arts, and other art forms to raise everyone’s awareness of environmental protection.

　　孩子们精彩的学术报告赢得了家长们、老师们的肯定。
