世界地球日

4月22日，我们庆祝了世界地球日！世界地球日在过去52年里被全球亿万人庆祝，大家聚集在一起，旨在提高人们对环保的意识。

在世界地球日这一天，我们社区的主旨很简单：行动最重要。

在学校里，我们的学生参加了一系列活动，以此激发学生对世界地球日的重视。例如，Chana老师的班级循环利用一次性的塑料瓶来制作鸟食罐子，来吸引更多野生动物进入校园。Melia老师的班级亲手建造了自己的班级花园。Flora老师的班级决定做一些小的改变，他们画了他们自己关爱地球的双手的图画，Edy老师带着她的班级去捡了校园里的垃圾。

我们都在为环境可持续发展努力，全球公民意识不仅仅是我们要做的事，这是我们自身的一部分。本质上，每一天都是世界地球日。我们希望家长多跟孩子讲讲如果保护我们的星球，从家里的小事做起，变得更可持续发展。

院舍极限阅读者比赛

上周，BMH开展了各种阅读活动，庆祝世界读书日。学生们积极地在英语课和教室大量阅读。我们的院舍注意到了这一点，也相信现在是让学生参加院舍阅读比赛的绝佳时机。

学生们经过老师的指导，拍一张他们在阅读最喜欢的书的照片，不过，必须是用一种极限的方式阅读。我们收到了绝妙又极其富有想象力的照片！

我们收到的照片里，有学生在车顶上阅读（当然汽车不是正在移动的）、倒立阅读、跟宠物一起阅读、在做核酸时阅读、奇形怪状的阅读方法，以及很多其他姿势。甚至一些老师也加入了~

我们感谢每个人上交的照片。而且，评选委员会已经选出了他们最喜欢的照片，并已经把这些上传到微信投票平台。前三名获得最多票数的学生将会在下周获得特别奖哦！

世界读书日活动

上周孩子们参加了很多有趣的阅读相关活动，比如图书寻宝游戏、叙述图书人物角色、撰写作者的真实故事，甚至编写他们自己的儿童图书。

整个学校的学生都在为他们对图书的热爱而庆祝。周三、周四和周五，学生们可以在BMH图书展上买书，每个班级都去图书馆浏览了书籍、写下自己的购书愿望清单，并购入自己喜欢的书籍。

4月22日周五，学生们在学校装扮成自己喜欢的图书人物角色。所有学生和老师都很乐于看到很多不同的装扮。

中文教学研讨周持续进行中

作文是不少孩子学习的老大难，也是国际化学校学生学习的“拦路虎”。为了进一步帮助孩子更好地调整作文心态，积极解决作文问题，我们在近期的教学研讨周中围绕单元作文教学，在五六年级的课堂里进行了教师团队的课堂研讨活动。

从材料分析、资料搜集、整理、撰写、修改到发表……学生们在老师的带领下完整地体验了作文创作的全流程，学习着如何像作家一样去写作。在课堂研讨结束后，教师团队也聚焦如何开展高年级作文教学、如何激发学生写作热情等问题进行研讨交流，期待在未来的教学中能够不断提高。

如何保障网络安全？

互联网是一个很棒的地方，学生可以在网上学习、研究家庭作业、跟朋友社交、玩游戏。然而，从指尖上获取全世界的信息也会显露出一些风险，比如网络暴力、不恰当的内容和不恰当的言谈。

家长应该留意孩子在网上浏览了什么内容，在网上如何互动。最好告诉孩子社交媒体和互联网的危害，这样孩子们就能拥有保护自己的手段，如果他们有疑问，就会向你们寻求帮助。用以下资料跟您的孩子好好聊一聊吧，这样我们都能成为一个有责任心的网络公民，为自己和他人负责。

本期有用网站

您的孩子对编码或编程感兴趣吗？在当今的时代，提高一门电脑技能已经成为了各种职业的关键技能。虽然初学的时候可能有一点困难，不过有些网站可以让入门更容易。其中一个是code.org，这是BMH信息技术老师所使用的网站，并且取得了显著的效果。课程内容丰富适用，涵盖了从完全的初学者到高级进阶的内容，可以让学生为进一步学习其他编程语言比如Python或Java 做准备。

这个网站可以支持中英文双语，互动性很强，今天去看看吧！

Earth Day

On Friday 22nd of April, we celebrated Earth Day! Earth Day has been honoured by billions of people around the globe for the last 52 years and is a day to join together to promote the awareness of the health of our environment.

On this Earth Day, our message to the community is simple: actions matter.

Across the school, our students engaged in a wide range of activities and stimulations to highlight the importance of Earth Day. For example, Mr Chana’s class made bird feeders to reuse single-use plastic bottles and attract more wildlife onto our campus. Ms Melia’s class got their hand dirty by creating their very own classroom garden. Ms Flora’s class discussed small action for change and painted their very own caring hands earth pictures, whilst Ms Edy took her class out to pick up litter from the campus.

We are working towards environmental sustainability and global citizenship being not just something we do but a part of who we are. In essence, Earth Day is every day. We ask that parents talk to their children frequently about how to save our planet and try to make small changes at home to be more sustainable.

EXTREME READER CHALLENGE

Last week, BMH celebrated World Book Day with an assortment of reading activities and events. Students were actively busy reading in their English and Homeroom classes and the House system noticed this and believed now was the perfect chance for students to participate in a House reading competition:

EXTREME READER CHALLENGE

Students were given the instructions to take a photo of themselves reading one of their favourite books; however, they must do this in an EXTREME way. The submissions we received were fantastic and super creative!

Extreme Reader Competition

The creativity of the BMH community is endless.We had students reading on top of their cars (cars were not moving of course), upside down, with their pets, whilst receiving a NAT test, reading acrobatically and so many more positions. Even some of the teachers got involved.

We thank everyone for their submissions; however, a selected committee have chosen their favourites and these submissions have entered the WeChat vote. The top 3 students with the most votes will earn a special prize next week!

Celebrating Books and Reading

Last week students were involved in many fun reading related activities, like going on a book scavenger hunt, descriptive writing about book characters, writing fact files about authors, and even writing their own children's books.

Across the entire Prep and Senior School students celebrated their love of reading. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday students had the opportunity to buy books at the BMH Book Fair. Each class got to visit the library to browse books, write a wishlist, and then go back the next day to purchase books.

On Friday 22nd April students came to school dressed up as a book character. All the students and teachers enjoyed seeing the many costumes.

Chinese teaching seminar week

Composition is the greatest difficulty for many children in learning, and it is also a stumbling block for students in internationalised schools. In order to further help children better adjust their composition mentality and actively solve composition problems, we have organised a group of teachers in Prep 5 and 6 to focus on unit composition teaching. From material analysis, data collection, sorting, writing, and revising to publishing.

Under the leadership of the teacher, students fully experienced the whole process of composition creation and learned how to write like a writer. After the classroom discussion, the teacher team also focused on how to carry out composition teaching in senior grades and how to stimulate students' enthusiasm for writing.

We look forward to engaging in more Chinese teaching seminars in the coming months.

How to Stay Safe Online

The internet is a great place where students can learn, research homework, socialise with friends and play games. Having the world’s information at our fingertips, however, can present some risks such as online bullying, inappropriate content and inappropriate communication.

Parents should be aware of what their children are viewing and interacting with online. It’s a good idea to talk with your child about some of the dangers of social media and the internet so they can be equipped with tools to protect themselves and come to you if they are in doubt. Have a conversation with your child using the visual below so we can all become responsible internet users looking out for ourselves and others.

Useful Website of the Week

Does your child have an interest in coding or programming? In this day and age, improving one's skills in computing has become key to a myriad of professions. Whilst it might at first seem a little daunting to learn how to code, there are websites that make the process much easier. One such site is code.org, which is employed by IT teachers here at BMH to great effect. Lessons are achievable and range from absolute beginner to highly advanced, allowing students to prepare to eventually move on to other programming languages like Python or Java.

The site supports English as well as Chinese and is highly interactive. Take a look today!
