“通曉世界語言”是諾德安達(dá)雙語學(xué)校的課程思想與培育目標(biāo)之一。語言不僅是一種表達(dá)形式和溝通工具，也是一種思維習(xí)慣和文化。廣州市番禺區(qū)諾德安達(dá)學(xué)校的雙語教育采用浸潤式教學(xué)方式，重在創(chuàng)造以學(xué)生為中心的互動(dòng)英語學(xué)習(xí)環(huán)境。

“Knowing the world language” is one of the curriculum thoughts and goals in Nord Anglia bilingual school. Language is not only a tool for expressing and communicating but also represents a certain mindset and culture. NAS Guangzhou Panyu adopted an immersion teaching method in its bilingual education, which emphasizes creating a student-centered interactive English learning environment.

低年級(jí)：在探索中學(xué)習(xí)語言

Lower grades: Learn language through exploration

這是一節(jié)三年級(jí)的英語課，主題是“I can use adjectives”。上周五，Briffett老師給孩子們留了預(yù)習(xí)作業(yè)，讓孩子們給一只小狗畫一頂帽子，同時(shí)描述自己的畫出來的帽子。

一上課，老師帶著孩子們復(fù)習(xí)描述物體的詞匯，理解形容詞位于句中和句尾可以如何表達(dá)。

This is one of the English classes of Grade 3, with the topic “I can use adjectives”. Last Friday, Ms. Briffett gave the children a preview of the homework, asked them to draw a hat for a dog and describe it.

At the beginning of the class, Ms. Briffett led the students to review the words used to describe objects and to understand how adjectives can be expressed in the middle and end of a sentence.

接著，老師給孩子們布置學(xué)習(xí)任務(wù)，引導(dǎo)孩子進(jìn)行分組討論，想出盡可能多的詞匯去描述一個(gè)卡通人物的帽子。

在討論的時(shí)候，Briffett老師提醒孩子們，“你可以用中文或者英文來說你想到的詞匯”，“如果你發(fā)現(xiàn)了一句非常棒的中文句子，請(qǐng)告訴我”。這是老師希望讓孩子能夠深入的理解什么是“形容詞”，盡可能的想到更多合適的詞匯，建立語言表達(dá)的自信，而不讓英語的詞匯量限制他們對(duì)事物的理解。

After that, Ms. Briffett divided students into groups and guided them to explore words to describe the hat of a cartoon character.

During their discussion, Ms. Briffett reminded the students: “You can discuss with Chinese or English”, “If you have a good sentence in Chinese, tell me”. Our teacher ensured that students can understand what is an adjective, discovery of as much vocabulary to describe the subject, and build upon their confidence to use this type of language in their vocabulary.

經(jīng)過1分鐘的短暫討論，孩子們紛紛踴躍舉手，說出自己想到的形容詞。讓人驚喜的是，孩子們想到了10個(gè)以上的形容詞去描述圖片上的帽子。

After 1 min discussion, our students raised their hand, and spoke their words. It was amazing that our students thought out more than 10 words to describe the hat.

在孩子們理解了“形容詞”這個(gè)概念之后，Briffett老師帶著孩子們拆解句子的結(jié)構(gòu)。老師讓孩子們?nèi)ヌ剿魅绾斡妹~+動(dòng)詞+形容詞來組成不同的句型。之后Briffett老師又對(duì)孩子們提出了更高的要求：每個(gè)人領(lǐng)回了自己的預(yù)習(xí)作業(yè)，重新用本節(jié)課學(xué)到的句子表達(dá)去描述畫面里小狗的帽子。

When the children understood the concept of "adjectives," Ms. Briffett guided them to learn the structure of sentences.Our teacher taught the students how to form different sentence patterns with noun + verbs + adjectives. After that, Ms. Briffett made higher demands on the children again: Everyone got their preview homework back and wrote sentences to describe the dog's hat in the picture again using the knowledge they had learned in this lesson.

孩子們推翻了自己在預(yù)習(xí)作業(yè)時(shí)寫的內(nèi)容，重新組織起語言。經(jīng)過一節(jié)課的學(xué)習(xí)，孩子們的句子表達(dá)更加豐富多彩了。

Jeffrey 寫道: “The hat is big and funny. My crazy hat has a horn. It has two red eyes.”

Eason 寫道 : “The big hat is funny. The yellow hat is crazy like cake. My hat is tall and scary.”

在廣州諾德安達(dá)，低年級(jí)的英語學(xué)習(xí)過程中，我們通過引導(dǎo)，讓孩子們?cè)诓粩嗟奶剿髦腥グl(fā)現(xiàn)語言的魅力，從而夯實(shí)語言基礎(chǔ)。

The children were overturning what they had written for their homework and reorganizing their language. After the class, the sentence they wrote were more colorful.

Jeffrey wrote that: “The hat is big and funny. My crazy hat has a horn. It has two red eyes.”

Eason wrote that: “The big hat is funny. The yellow hat is crazy like cake. My hat is tall and scary.”

In NAS Guangzhou Panyu, we guide the students in lower grades to explore the charm of language and strengthen their language foundation.

高年級(jí)：用語言去探索生活

High grade: We use language to explore our life

到了高年級(jí)，當(dāng)孩子們掌握了一定的語言基礎(chǔ)，英語課又是另一種精彩。

五年級(jí)第一個(gè)跨學(xué)科主題學(xué)習(xí)單元的主題是：What a wonderful world. 五年級(jí)的英語老師Seligman 老師認(rèn)為，Wonderful word的重要組成部分就是我們的社區(qū)，如果我們的社區(qū)很美好，學(xué)校很美好，身邊每一個(gè)人都很美好，那么我們的世界也是十分美好的。他希望帶著孩子們充滿感恩的去看待這個(gè)世界，看待身邊的每一個(gè)人。于是，他組織孩子們給學(xué)校的老師們準(zhǔn)備了小禮物。

In higher grades, when students obtain the basic language skill, our English class is exciting.

The first theme of Grade 5 is “What a wonderful world”. Mr. Seligman, English teacher of Grade 5 thought that community spirit was the important part of our community. If our community is great, our school is nice and everyone around us is happy, then our world will be wonderful. He hoped he could guide the children to embrace our world and people gratefully. He organized the children to prepare small gifts for the teachers at school.

他們選擇了仙人掌作為小禮物，孩子們說“因?yàn)橄扇苏粕?qiáng)，這樣我們的心意就可以陪伴大家久一點(diǎn)?！?/span>

每一盆小小的仙人掌都是Seligman老師帶著孩子們?cè)苑N的，之后，Seligman老師又帶著孩子們到學(xué)校的每一個(gè)辦公室為老師們送上了心意。他告訴孩子們這個(gè)辦公室的老師是負(fù)責(zé)什么的，為保障孩子們的學(xué)習(xí)和生活做了什么樣的努力。

They chose a cactus as the gift. Our children said that, “Cactus vitality is strong, so our mind can accompany everyone for a long time.”

Each small cactus was planted by Mr. Seligman and his students. He brought the students to the offices and gave our teachers their gift. Mr. Seligman explained to our students what the responsibility of our staff was in each different office, and how they help with school study and daily life.

在這個(gè)過程中，孩子們不僅僅學(xué)習(xí)了如何用英語去表達(dá)自己的感恩，去描述自己的世界，更重要的是，學(xué)會(huì)了去探索生活，去愛和感恩。

In this session, our students not only learn how to express their gratitude and describe the world in English. What’s more, they have learned how to explore their daily life, how to love the others.

這僅僅是廣州諾校的英語課的一些日常小片段。我們的雙語教學(xué)貫穿于學(xué)生日常學(xué)習(xí)和生活的每一個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)。雙語教育讓孩子們不僅僅掌握一門語言，更重要的是學(xué)會(huì)用不同的語言去思考生活、去探索世界、去表現(xiàn)自我。

These are just a few of the daily English lessons at NAS Guangzhou Panyu. Our bilingual education runs through students' daily study and life. Bilingual education enables children not only to master one language, but more importantly to learn to think about life, explore the world and express themselves in different languages.
