Continuous rain, accompanied by wet and cold wind, ushered in a freezing day in Shenzhen this Monday. But it was also the Monday that we started the new semester with fervour online.
We knew that the online course was a challenge for children, parents and teachers alike. But with careful planning and the experience of teaching online from last term and last year, we were able to be more comfortable with it and keep everything in order.
This morning, with the national anthem and enthusiastic speeches, we used the flag-raising ceremony to lift the spirits of every student. We believe the children can feel full of power even at home.
*Emliy Bo and Jimmy Song gave speeches
*Dr. Wall gave a welcome address for the new semester
The teachers were well prepared for the first lesson of the school term, talking about their holiday experiences, starting with new stories......a variety of ways to enable the children to adapt to their new learning life as soon as possible.
And the books for the new semester were carefully sorted by teachers and handed over to parents to go to their children's tables.
Although they were unable to come to the classroom, each child can dress well at home, sit in front of the computer, and interact fluently with their classmates and teachers. Life is a process of constantly facing problems and then solving them. Let's teach our children, with practical actions, how to face this uncertain world.
*For grades 1-3, where online teaching is not available, teachers are also making careful arrangements.
At the beginning of 2022, we feel the different weather of Shenzhen, and once again experience the difficulty of learning under the epidemic, but we are full of hope that we will soon welcome a warm spring and vibrant children on our campus.
