Kg Welcomes ACAMIS Student Athletes
This week, our Kindergarten students had the exciting opportunity to perform at the ACAMIS basketball opening ceremony, showcasing their Lunar New Year concert songs, Gongxi, and a captivating Chinese Dance inspired by the famous Nutcracker Ballet.
This performance is beautifully connected with their current PYP unit, "Different cultures express their values, traditions, and identities in different ways." Through music and dance, students explored how arts can express cultural traditions and values. They engaged with the concept of Form by learning the structure of traditional songs and dances, Function by understanding their purpose in celebrations, and Perspective by appreciating how these traditions represent cultural identity. Thanks to our Kg students and teachers for sharing their performance!
本周，K年级学生在ACAMIS篮球开幕式上表演了精彩的节目，包括农历新年歌曲《恭喜》和以《胡桃夹子》为灵感的中国舞蹈。这些表演完美结合了当前的PYP单元主题“不同文化通过不同方式表达其价值观、传统和身份”。
通过音乐和舞蹈，学生探索了艺术如何表现文化传统和价值观。他们学习了传统歌曲和舞蹈的结构（形式），理解其在庆祝活动中的目的（功能），并欣赏这些传统如何代表文化身份（视角）。感谢K年级学生和老师们为我们带来的精彩表演！
G1 & G2 FIP Knowledge Exchange
Before the winter break, both G1 and G2 FIP students published their writing. Interestingly, G1 and G2 students learn similar writing styles for informational and opinion writing. This was a great opportunity for each grade to help their counterparts learn more about their next writing unit.
Students from both classes were excited to share their books, ask and answer questions, and reflect on their experiences as they presented their writing.
Avant les vacances d'hiver, les élèves de G1 et de G2 FIP ont publié leurs écrits. Fait intéressant, les élèves de G1 et de G2 apprennent des styles d'écriture similaires pour l'écriture informative et d'opinion. Cela a été une excellente occasion pour chaque niveau de classe d'aider ses homologues à en apprendre davantage sur leur prochain programme d'écriture.
Les élèves des deux classes étaient ravis de partager leurs livres, de poser et de répondre à des questions, et de réfléchir à leurs expériences lors de la présentation de leurs écrits.
冬假前，一年级和二年级的FIP法语班学生展示了他们的写作成果。值得注意的是，这两个年级的学生都学习了信息性写作和观点性写作的相似风格。这为每个年级的学生提供了一个帮助彼此了解下一阶段写作单元的机会。
学生们兴奋地分享自己的书籍，提出问题并解答，同时在展示写作成果时反思自己的学习经验。

This week, vision and hearing screenings were administered for students in grades 1, 3, and 5. The tests were provided by medical staff from Distinct Clinic - Shenzhen. We will be sending the screening reports in a few weeks. Screenings are a snapshot of how your child performs on the day the screening is administered and should not be a substitute for a complete hearing or eye exam.
