國際學校里的小升初

This week the Grade 5 students had the opportunity to experience a day in Grade 6 as part of Bridging Week. During this day, the Grade 5 students shadowed a Grade 6 buddy in order to see first-hand what a normal day in Secondary school is like. In this way, they get to know how the Grade 6 schedule works, they take part in the different classes there are, and they experience the various routines that are part of the day-to-day life of a Secondary student.

本周是我校五年級學生的適應周，他們有機會體驗作為六年級學生的學習狀態。我們為每名學生安排了一名來自六年級的小伙伴，這樣他們就可以更直接地了解六年級學生在校的日常學習情況。同時，他們參與各種課堂學習，體驗中學學生的日常。

One of the biggest differences between Elementary and Secondary is the number of teachers and classes they have in a day. While shadowing their Grade 6 buddies, the Grade 5 students can learn how to manage their schedule, so they know where to go making sure they are on time and have all the materials they require. During Bridging Week, the Grade 5 students get to go to the specialized labs that we have in Secondary for Design and Science. This is usually a highlight of their day. In addition, this week provides an opportunity for both Grade 6 teachers and Grade 5 students to get to know each other.

我校小學和中學最大的不同之一在于上課的科目和授課的教師。跟著各自六年級的小伙伴，五年級學生學習如何安排自己的時間，確保自己可以按時到達課堂并攜帶好上課必需的物品。他們還體驗了設計和科學課，因為這些科目在專業教室授課，往往會是當天學習的亮點。適應周還為五年級學生和六年級教師提供了提前了解對方的機會。

All in all, Bridging Week introduces Secondary school life to the Grade 5 students in a reassuring way.

總的來說，適應周是幫助五年級學生提前適應中學生活的有效途徑。
