不久前,南京威雅舉辦了首次面向在校生家庭的校園體驗日。
從周一到周五,幼兒園至高一的家長分批次觀摩了孩子們的課堂,科目覆蓋語文、數(shù)學、英語、化學、體育、音樂、藝術、設計與技術、理解世界等等,親身體驗了“無濾鏡”“無美顏”的威雅課堂。觀課過后,家長和孩子一起,在食堂享用了營養(yǎng)均衡、味道鮮美的自助午餐。寄宿生家長還參觀了孩子們的宿舍。
值得一提的是,體驗日全程由南京威雅的學生們獨立帶隊和講解,他們出色的雙語能力、自信大方的姿態(tài),引得前來參與的家長們交口稱贊。
除了體驗真實的校園生活,各學部還為家長們準備了簡短的說明會,系統(tǒng)介紹了不同年級段的成長規(guī)劃。
在中學,助理校長粟檀詳細解析了南京威雅從七年級開始的、體系化的升學發(fā)展規(guī)劃,包括劍橋課程準備、雅思、EPQ獨立研究項目、論文和面試準備、大學入學測試、藝術/音樂作品集準備、戲劇等專業(yè)試鏡準備等等。除了家長們最關心的升學指導,南京威雅還會不遺余力地支持學生發(fā)展以愛丁堡公爵獎為代表的多元增益項目,以及模擬聯(lián)合國、世界學者杯等重量級學術競賽。此外,學校將于11月中旬向家長發(fā)送首份學生雙報告(學術報告+全人報告),以一年四次的頻率,反映學生在五大目標上的發(fā)展和進步。
在小學,魯伯特校長特別介紹了南京威雅的特色課程——理解世界(Understanding the World)。這門課采用主題式教學,鼓勵學生從現(xiàn)實問題出發(fā),橫向聯(lián)系和應用各門學科所學,從人文視角探討解決方案,在輔助發(fā)展語言能力的同時,全面提升孩子的思考力。
在幼兒園,我們以月度主題的方式組織教學,從社交情感、語言學習、STEAM、世界視野、出游五個層面,圍繞共同的大主題,設計相應的學習活動。例如10月的主題是“Family家人”,孩子們通過《ILove You Forever》繪本共讀、STEAM活動“回收的家庭相框”、了解世界老人日、礦坑公園野餐等,體會如何感恩和關愛他人。
我們恰于近日收到了兩位學部老師的投稿,在他們筆下,我們可以一窺幼小學部的主題式教學是如何進行的。
KG STEAM幼兒園|南瓜日
by Shane Mabutas
南瓜或許是秋天的最后一個信使,它也是地球上最受歡迎、用途最廣的葫蘆之一!沒錯,南瓜和黃瓜、西葫蘆、西瓜一樣,同屬葫蘆家族。今天,我們把南瓜園搬進了南京威雅的幼兒園,通過實驗和動手活動,發(fā)展孩子們的運動和社交技能?!?/p>
Pumpkins are perhaps the ultimate sign that fall has arrived. They are one of the most beloved and versatile gourds on Earth! Pumpkins are a part of the gourd family; think cucumbers, zucchini, and watermelons. This year we brought the pumpkin patch to WASNJ KG! Our vision included hands on activities and experiment to develop motor skills and social skills within our KG kids.
孩子們做的南瓜燈和面具
南瓜的歷史可以上溯至5000多年前的北美大陸。法國人雅克·卡地亞探索北美圣勞倫斯地區(qū)時,發(fā)現(xiàn)了法國人稱之為“格羅絲瓜”的東西,后來這個名字被翻譯為英文“pompions”,此后逐漸演變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)在的“pumpkin”(南瓜)。
Pumpkins are believed to date back over 5,000 years ago within North America. Frenchmen Jacques Cartier explored the St. Lawrence region of North America and recalls finding what the French called “gros melons”, later the name would be translated into English as “pompions”, which has since evolved into the modern “pumpkin”.
南瓜不僅可以用作食物,還可以供我們消遣娛樂。在北美和加拿大,南瓜派是一種傳統(tǒng)食物。我們還可以將南瓜雕刻成南瓜燈,并在里面放置一支蠟燭來照亮我們的創(chuàng)作。
Pumpkins can be used for food and recreation. Pumpkin pie has become a traditional food in North America and Canada. We can also carve pumpkins into popular “jack-o-lanterns” placing a candle inside to illuminate our creation.
◎孩子們在進行獨輪手推車接力賽
農民伯伯會在每年7月份開始南瓜種植,它們需要保水性非常好的土壤。南瓜植物的生命力很強,在必要的時候,它們被損壞的藤蔓還可以插入泥土中重新生長。南瓜真的太耐用了,于是,幼兒園的四個學院決定用南瓜進行一場獨輪手推車接力賽!
Planted by farmers in early July, Pumplins require soil that holds water well. Pumpkins are rather durable and can regrow damaged vines if necessary. Pumpkins are so durable that our KG houses managed to have a wheelbarrow relay with them!
STEAM南瓜日活動圍繞手工藝制作、令人興奮的體能挑戰(zhàn)和烹飪展開。幼兒園的孩子們展現(xiàn)了南瓜多姿多彩的用途,為2022年的南瓜日帶來了新鮮的活力。在手工藝制作方面,我們看到了不同的3D形狀和南瓜燈,還有“神奇的藥水南瓜實驗”。
The focus of the STEAM pumpkin day was crafts, exciting physical challenges, and cooking. KG were able to show just how versatile the pumpkin is, bringing the magic of 2022 pumpkin day alive. In terms of crafts, we saw 3D shapes, jack-o-lanterns and a “magic potion pumpkin experiment”.
孩子們嘗試南瓜烹飪
同時,幼兒園小班的孩子們興奮地把南瓜砸碎,做成湯和南瓜泥,上面還鋪了奶酪。我們要讓孩子們知道南瓜的食用方式是非常靈活的,可以用多種方式烹飪。
Meanwhile, KG1 were avidly smashing their pumpkin together to make soup and mashed pumpkin topped with cheese. We made sure that kids will know that pumpkins are flexible and could be cooked in a variety of ways.
最后,學院活動為我們2022年的STEAM南瓜日畫上了圓滿的句號。每個學院都需要完成兩項任務挑戰(zhàn)。首先是獨輪車接力賽,孩子們需要將南瓜裝上手推車,然后推著它穿過集合區(qū)。之后,孩子們需要用牙簽和南瓜塊,想辦法搭建有趣的3D作品。
House activities rounded off our STEAM pumpkin day for 2022. The students were split into their respective houses and had two tasks to challenge them. First, was the wheelbarrow relay, tasking students with loading their pumpkins into wheelbarrows and carrying them across the assembly area. Lastly, houses were given toothpicks and diced pumpkin to create exciting 3D shapes.

結束了一天的快樂學習,孩子們的辛勤付出和努力也得到了老師的獎勵。他們安頓下來美美地享用自己制作的南瓜美食,和伙伴們分享一天中最喜歡的故事。
At the end of the day, the KG kids were rewarded for their hard work and effort across the STEAM pumpkin day 2022. The kids settled down to eat their creations, sharing stories about their favorite parts of the day.
LSUTW小學|理解世界之棲息地
by Melandi Lindeque
歡迎來到二年級W班的課堂。
Welcome to a quick look into theGrade 2W classroom.
我們即將結束本學期第一個IPC單元的學習,名為“愛人如己”。上周,我們開始了關于棲息地的討論。我們發(fā)現(xiàn)棲息地就是某種生物生活的地方。棲息地的類型多種多樣——有大的也有小的,有寒冷的也有炎熱的,有在陸地上的也有在水中的。所有的棲息地都為動植物提供食物、水、空氣和住所。
We are wrapping up our first IPC unit for the semester called Live and Let Live. Last week, we started discussing habitats. We discovered that a habitat is a place where someone or something lives. There are various types of habitats – big or small, cold or hot, on land or in water. All habitats provide animals and plants with food, water, air, and shelter.
孩子們在米蘭迪老師的課堂上
我們深入研究了兩個棲息地,即沙漠和海洋。
We delved a bit deeper into two habitats, namely deserts and oceans.
我們了解到沙漠是一個年均降雨量少于250mm的地方,地球上各大洲都有沙漠。接下來,我們觀察了沙漠中的一些動物。我們了解到駱駝有很長的睫毛,可以保護它們的眼睛不受沙塵暴的傷害,它們的鼻孔可以閉合,防止沙子進入。
We learned that a desert is a place that gets less than 25cm of rainfall per year. We learned that there are deserts on all continents on earth. Next, we looked at some animals in the desert, and we learned that a camel has very long eyelashes that protect their eyes from sandstorms, and their nostrils can close to keep the sand out.
接下來,我們研究了海洋棲息地,觀察了一些生活在珊瑚礁里的動物,比如不同的魚、海龜、海星等等。
Next, we looked at ocean habitats. We looked at some animals living in coral reefs, like different fish, sea turtles, starfish and many more.
米蘭迪老師解答孩子們的問題
學生們制作了海報,來展示兩種棲息地的異同。最后,他們開始規(guī)劃和繪制自己的海洋棲息地立體模型。
Students created posters with differences and similarities between the two habitats, and lastly, they started planning and drawing their own ocean habitat diorama.
學生們把鞋盒帶到學校,我們看了一些視頻和樣例,然后他們在小組中討論、策劃、并畫出微縮模型的草稿。
Students brought shoe boxes to school. We looked at some videos and examples, and then in their groups, students had to discuss, plan, and draw their dioramas.
孩子們?yōu)槲⒖s模型打草稿
接下來,學生們開始畫畫、著色、粘貼,創(chuàng)造動物和植物。他們的創(chuàng)造力和合作的精神給我留下了深刻的印象。一些學生甚至還收集了小木棍、石頭和樹葉來制作立體模型。學生們在創(chuàng)作過程中還使用了粘土,使我們的植物和動物鮮艷又明亮?! ?/p>
Next, students started drawing, colouring, pasting, and creating our animals and plants. I was impressed with their creativity and willingness to help each other. Some students even collected small sticks, rocks, and leaves to use in their dioramas. Students also used clay to create and make our plants and animals colourful and bright!
上課期間,有一些家長來參觀我們的課堂,他們也加入進來,幫助孩子們完成項目。最后,孩子們向大家展示了他們的海洋棲息地作品。
We had a visit from some parents, who also jumped in and helped with our projects. Finally, students had the opportunity to tell us about their own ocean habitat.
孩子們的微縮模型作品
在為期兩周的棲息地學習中,我們還通過唱歌和跳舞的方式,幫助我們學習了解海洋中的生物。盡管這個項目更側重于個人獨立工作,但學生們都非常熱切地協(xié)作互助,展現(xiàn)出了卓越的合作精神。在項目中,他們也展現(xiàn)出了自己的韌性,持續(xù)努力,直到項目結束。
During these two weeks of learning, we also had fun with songs and dancing that helped us learn about some animals in the ocean.Although the project was more focused on individual work, students were eager to help each other and work together – this showed their collaborative spirits. They also showcased their resiliency to keep working hard until the end of the project.
正如教育家蘇霍姆林斯基所說:“沒有家庭教育的學校教育和沒有學校教育的家庭教育,都不可能完成培養(yǎng)人這樣一個極其細微的任務”。未來,我們還將持續(xù)組織更深入的在校生家庭體驗活動,以家校共育不斷發(fā)展和完善南京威雅的社區(qū)建設,凝聚更多同頻的力量,成就每一個孩子卓越的可能。
【關于南京威雅學?!?/strong>
