生物学是对生命和生物的研究。在深圳诺德双语学校六年级和七年级，学生首先研究最小的生物块、细胞，然后继续学习生物多样性、栖息地和食物链等知识。在八年级，学生们正在学习根据林奈系统对生物进行分类，深入研究地球上发现的不同类型的动物群体，从而了解生物进化、适应和变异。

我们的英语课程采用分层教学的形式，学生可以根据自己的基础水平提高英语能力。在与生物跨学科的教学内容上，我们的英语教学会围绕学生在生物学中学习的相同主题，例如阅读、写作有关不同动物、栖息地和环境问题的文章，学生从而能够将两个学科之间学到的知识联系起来。

最好的学习方法是让学生亲自体验所学的知识。在我们的中学项目生物学课程中，我们为学生提供尽可能多的机会通过经验进行学习。知识固然重要，但如果我们学生的知识只是来自书本，他们就与知识本身脱节了。

我们的老师会鼓励学生，将所有的知识与自己的生活和经历联系起来，这也是为什么不同学科之间的合作如此重要的原因，因为生活中的一切都是相互联系的。

在深圳诺德双语学校，我们的教学从校内课堂延伸到校外， “行走的课堂”走出的其实不仅仅是学习的场所，更是实践育人的新路径。当“读万卷书”与“行万里路”相遇融合的时候，学生们看到了更大的世界，拓展视野、丰富见解。

未来希望通过更加多丰富的研学活动，可以帮助我们的学生建立起更强大的文化自信，让少年们带着课题去研究、去实践，学会独立思考和解决问题的方法论。

Biology is the study of life and living things. In G6 and G7 students are first studying about the smallest blocks of living things, cells and then will continue to study about biodiversity, habitats and food chains. In G8 students are learning to classify living things according to the Linnaean System and we are looking in depth at the different types of animal groups found on earth, both invertebrates and vertebrates. G8 also learn about evolution, adaptation and variation. 

Our English classes are streamed, so students are improving their English from their own base levels. For their first unit, all the English classes are around the same topics that students are learning about in Biology. They read and wrote about different animals, habitats and environmental issues.  Students are thus able to connect what they have learned between the two subjects.

The best way to learn is by experiencing something for oneself. In our MYP Biology lessons, we offer students as many opportunities as possible to learn through experience. Knowledge is important, but if our students’ knowledge just comes from books, they are disconnected from it. 

NASSZ teachers encourage students to link knowledge to their own lives and experiences. Students should also not only gain knowledge, but they should also be able to use this knowledge in different and new situations. This is also why collaboration between different subjects is so important. Everything in life is connected. 

At NASSZ Shenzhen, our teaching extends beyond the traditional classroom to the outside world. The "Walking Classroom" is not just a place of learning, but also a new path for practical education. Students see a bigger world, broaden their horizons, and enrich their perspectives.

In the future, NASSZ hopes to establish stronger cultural confidence in students through even more diverse research and experiential learning activities. We want our students to take on topics, conduct research, and engage in practical experiences, learning the methodology of independent thinking and problem-solving.
