August 15,2023, SHBS ushered in a week-long training event for the new semester. In this training, faculty and staff members engaged in a diverse range of activities in order to acheive continuous improvement and become a better team.

培训周的内容极为多元，其中包括［“边界”讲座］、［团建活动］、［学校规章制度培训］、［双语教师语言工坊］、［赛艇体验］以及［教学方法讨论］等。

The training week includes a wide variety of activities, including [lectures on "Boundaries" ], [team-building activities], [ school regulations training], [ bilingual teacher language workshops], [ rowing experiences],  and [discussions on teaching methods].

在“边界”讲座中，Chris校长带领教师们明确了工作和生活中各种各样的边界问题。透过具体案例的深入讨论，从时间、空间和行为三个方面审视了边界的重要性，建立不能触碰的“警戒线”，体悟到合理处理边界问题对于提升工作效率和生活品质的意义。生动有趣的讲座之后，教师们将更懂得如何在快节奏的生活中寻求平衡。

In the "Boundaries" lecture, Principal Chris led the teachers in clarifying various boundary issues in work and life. Through in-depth discussions involving concrete cases, the significance of boundaries was examined from the perspectives of time, space, and behavior. The establishment of "warning lines" that shouldn't be crossed was stressed, helping participants realize the importance of managing boundaries for enhancing efficiency of work and quality of life. Following this engaging lecture, teachers gained a deeper understanding of how to achieve better work-life balance amidst tight working schedule.

在部门会议中，教师们集思广益，共同探讨了新学期的教学目标、任务以及重难点的规划。在学科组长的引导下，教师们深入分解教学目标，针对学生的特点制定了个性化的教学方案。全新的教学思路和规划将不仅增强教师们对课程的把控能力，还有助于提升学生的学习兴趣和学习效果。

During department meetings, teachers brainstormed and discussed the teaching goals, tasks, and plans of key points and difficult points for the upcoming semester. Under the guidance of subject group leaders, they broke down teaching objectives and devised personalized teaching strategies based on students' characteristics. These fresh teaching ideas and plans not only bolster teachers' control over the curriculum but also contribute to enhancing students' interest and effectiveness in learning.

团建活动则通过小游戏的方式展开，在游戏互动中，教师们分享了自身的独特经历，表达了对学校核心价值观的深入理解。其中，“传递数字”的挑战深化了成员之间的沟通和协作。通过这个活动，教师们领悟到团队成员之间协作和磨合的重要性：在一个共同的目标和语境之下，只有所有人都掌握同一套规则和逻辑，才能更有效地实现共同的目标。这种默契的建立将在日常工作中促进更高效的合作。

The team-building activities took the form of interactive games, allowing teachers to share their unique experiences and express their deep understandings of the school values. The "Passing the Number" challenge deepened communication and collaboration among members. Through this activity, teachers understood the importance of cooperation and synergy in a team: under a common goal and context, only when everyone grasps the same set of rules and logic can collective objectives be more efficiently achieved. Establishing such a sense of mutual understanding will promote more efficient collaboration in daily work.

苗老师带领全体教职工详细解读和学习了学生手册，强调了教职工的着装和行为规范。学生手册是教师工作中不可或缺的执行指南，帮助教职工更好地理解学校的期望，并在工作中做出积极的示范。

Led by Miao, all faculty and staff members meticulously studied the student handbook, understanding dress code and behavioral norms. The student handbook serves as an essential guide for teachers' work, helping them better comprehend the school's expectations and set positive examples in their work.

双语教师语言工坊由林老师主持，深入探讨了在外语教学中的母语使用情况，共同探索如何最大程度地减少中文的使用，以提升双语教学的效果。教师们学习到如何在教学中实现语言的平衡，使学生更自然地适应双语环境。

The bilingual teacher language workshop, facilitated by Chuman, delved into the use of native language in foreign language teaching. Participants jointly explored methods to minimize the use of Chinese language and enhance the effectiveness of bilingual instruction. Teachers learned how to strike a balance in language use during teaching, enabling students to adapt more naturally to the bilingual environment.

赛艇体验的进行有些波折，但天公作美，雨后天晴得以让体验顺利继续。在雨后的湖面上，教师们共同体验赛艇，欣赏美丽的湖景风光，同时也锻炼了团队的协作能力。

The rowing experience encountered some setbacks, but the weather eventually cleared after rain, allowing the activity to proceed smoothly. On the post-rain lake surface, teachers collectively experienced rowing, enjoying the serene lake view and simultaneously honing their teamwork skills.

 在教学方法讨论中，Chris校长主持了一场关于“鱼”的案例讨论，启发了教师们对于学生不同层级的学习需求的认知。他强调了布鲁姆教育目标分类法中的各要素，引导教师们进行更深入的教学思考。教师们从这个有趣的案例中获得了更多关于教学策略和方法的启示，更有信心用生动有趣的方式传递知识。这将为教师们在新学期的教学中带来更丰富的创意和动力。

During the teaching methods discussion, Principal Chris led a case study on the topic of "fish," inspiring teachers' understanding of students' varying levels of learning needs. He emphasized the various elements in Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives, guiding teachers to engage in deeper teaching reflections. Teachers gained more insights into teaching strategies and methods from this engaging case study, feeling more confident in delivering knowledge in dynamic and interesting ways. This will undoubtedly bring more creativity and motivation to their teaching in the new semester.
