“我是来自《Happily Ever After》的白雪公主。”

“我是来自《Splat the Cat》的Splat。”

“我是来自《还珠格格》的小燕子。”

"I am Snow White from the book Happily Ever After."

"I am Splat from the book Splat the Cat."

"I am Xiaoyanzi from My Fair Princess."

……

我们用一种充满趣味性的方式来介绍每个人所扮演的书中人物，并以此拉开这一节日的序幕。从倍受喜爱的童话故事到最前沿的科幻文学，哪一位书中人物是你最喜欢的？

So who are your favorite literary characters? Students took turns introducing themselves to mom and dad in the audience. There are characters from all sorts of genres, from our favorite fairy tale classics to the most recent science fiction literature.

TWIS成功地将梦想变为现实。在介绍会上，我们见到了《哈利波特》霍格沃茨魔法学院的同伴，倾听了来自独角兽们分享的奇幻故事，也目睹了充满活力的超级马里奥体验“全新”的游戏……

The TWIS community has successfully brought the dream to life! We are meeting fellows from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Harry Potter, listening to the magical tales shared by Unicorns, as well as witnessing vibrant and active Super Mario experiencing the "new" games...!

在完成自我介绍后，我们可以在哪里与整个社区的书中人物相遇呢？答案是……在巡游中！身着华丽服饰的众多角色在教室外的庭园里相遇，他们不仅展示了当天的服装，还骄傲地向整个社区展现他们所喜爱的书目！

After the self-introduction session, it's time to gather outside the auditorium. Proudly displaying the books associated with their costume, students circled around twice before the next exciting event.

你是否能从中找到你最爱的书中人物？

Are you able to find your favorite characters？

巡游结束后，“书中人物”会前往何处？他们会回到由自己创作的“奇幻世界”。我们可以看到，在PYP小学部，每一间教室的大门都被贴上栩栩如生的画作。事实上，这是学生在艺术课上与艺术教师共同完成的作品。

Where do "Book Characters" go after the parade? They return to the "fantasy world" created by themselves. As we can see, each classroom door at PYP is embellished with vivid artwork. In actuality, they were produced by PYP students in art class in collaboration with their teachers. 

以二年级为例，学生曾一起阅读过一本名为《理解与关爱（Understand and Care）》的书，他们在课上讨论了如何培养自己的同理心，如何通过倾听和尊重他人的感受来表达自己的关爱之心。受此启蒙，以此书内容为主题，学生在两周内完成了这些贴在教室大门上的作品。

In PYP 2, for instance, students read a book together called Understand and Care, in which they discussed how to develop their empathy by listening to and respecting the feelings of others. Inspired by this, the students decided to use the book as a theme to create a piece of artwork on their classroom door!

那么，“艺术之门”的背后是什么呢？是给我们学生准备了丰富糖果的家长。按照传统，是时候进入“不给糖就捣蛋”的游戏环节了！

And who do we find behind those doors? Mom and dad are loaded with sweets. Time to trick or treat!
