01 致家长的一封信

Dear Baishan AWS Parents, Students, and Friends,

One theme that guided our activities over the past week has been that of Thanksgiving. We worked very hard to let our students take part in and learn about what this holiday means. Before our dinner, we took a few moments to think about what we are thankful for, and understand what good things there are in life and to be grateful for them.

We have started on helping our families begin the process to apply for visas to the United States so that our students can go to Tacoma later this year. It will be a very beneficial step for our whole school to learn about each experience they will have at Annie Wright, and with their host families too.

We also hope that those parents who attended our meeting this afternoon found the time well spent. It is good to see the progress our students are making in their English development, and it is good for our parents to understand what guides our instruction to meet this goal.

Have a Good Weekend,

Robert Hinman

Director

尊敬的白珊·安妮高中的家长，学生和朋友们：

在过去的一周，指导我们活动的一个重要主题是感恩节。师生们一起设计各项活动，所有同学都积极参与进来，一起学习体会美国传统节日——感恩节的意义。我们一起准备感恩节晚餐，并在享用美食之前静心思考：我们应该感谢什么，生活中有哪些美好的事情……我们应该对这些美好心存感激。

我们已经开始着手学生申请美国签证的工作，以便下半学年交换生们可以去美国塔科马安妮莱特学校交流学习。这对我们的学生来说是非常有益的，他们将住在寄宿家庭，亲身体验美国的文化，亲身感受在安妮莱特学校的学习和生活。

希望周五下午参加家长会的家长们能有所收获。我们很高兴看到孩子们在英语学习中取得的进步，也很高兴家长们能够理解学校为了达到教学目标对学生所进行的指导。

祝您周末愉快！

罗伯特·茵曼主任

02 Classroom Snapshots

课堂风采

The Art students were able to continue working on their large project, which will be due next week. They have also documented their creative process in their journals by annotating photographs of their work and studies. Additionally, students' vocabulary scores have improved. Well done to those students who are working hard to learn the terminology.

本周的艺术课，学生们在继续完成他们的大课题，完成时间截止到下周。本周他们还通过对自己作品进行拍照和注释工作，记录了他们的创作过程。此外，学生的艺术专业英文词汇成绩也有所提高。表扬那些努力学习艺术术语的学生！

Art Class 艺术课堂

Our 9th grade project -- putting our knowledge of physical geography to use in a science fiction work building -- is coming to an end. Please support your 9th grader in finishing this big project by Monday! Next up: How are humans impacting the ecosystems of our planet?

在九年级地理课上，学生们把学到的自然地理知识运用到了科幻小说作品中——这项作业即将截止，请帮助您的孩子在下星期一之前完成这个大课题！接下来我们将学习：人类如何影响我们星球的生态系统？

The 10th graders are grappling with the compare and contrast essay format. Some are comparing Spanish and English colonization in the New World; others are comparing various early American colonies. They'll finish a draft by Tuesday, and then it's on to the American Revolution.

本周十年级的美国历史课，学生们正在努力学习比较和对比的写作格式。有的学生在比较西班牙和英国在美洲新大陆的殖民统治；另一些学生则在比较美国早期的各种殖民地。学生们需要在下星期二之前完成初稿，接下来我们会学习美国的革命战争。

03 Public Service

环保公益活动

On Tuesday, November 26th our grade 10 students took part in a public service activity to help raise awareness of the environmental benefits of recycling. Our students made the effort to reach out to people as they passed by, brought their attention to the new efforts to reduce and re-use more material to improve all environmental conditions in Qingdao.

Despite the cold weather, our students were very positive in their engagement with the public, and we are happy to have had the opportunity to work with many residents of Qingdao.

星期二下午，安妮十年级的学生们参加了倡导“垃圾分类”公益活动，帮助人们提高对垃圾分类和回收再利用益处的认识，爱护家园、保护环境。学生们积极地跟社区居民沟通，让他们认识到垃圾分类和回收再利用对改善整个青岛环境的好处。尽管天气寒冷，但学生们热情地宣传讲解，心中涌动着一丝丝暖意，也很高兴有机会与社区居民一起为环保献上自己的一份力量。

04 Thanksgiving Day

感谢有你

Do you know anything about Thanksgiving?

Thanksgiving is a traditional American festival on the fourth Thursday in November. It's a holiday for the American family to get together and have a big dinner.

Speaking about a big dinner, here's some exciting news: Our school will have a big party in Ms. Baishan's house to celebrate Thanksgiving! All teachers and students will gather around and prepare the big meal. As far as I know, there will be roast turkey, pumpkin pie, mashed potatoes, fruit pies and other delicious traditional Thanksgiving food. All the students have been making pumpkin pies and preparing a Thanksgiving dinner with Mrs.Hinman，Ms.Brauer and Ms.Roth's help.

I'm glad that we are living in an era of peace and have such a good opportunity to enjoy a big meal with our friends and teachers. I hope the foreign teachers can feel the warmth of home here.

你了解感恩节的由来吗？

感恩节是美国的传统节日，在每年⼗⼀月的第四个星期四，家家户户都会聚集在⼀起享受⼀顿⼤餐。说到⼤餐，这里有个令人激动的好消息：我们在张白珊董事长的家中和全体外教老师们一起共进丰盛的感恩节晚餐。据我所知，传统的感恩节美食有烤火鸡，南瓜派，⼟⾖泥以及⽔果派等等。在Mrs.Hinman，Ms.Brauer和 Ms.Roth的指导帮助下，我们一起做了南瓜派，准备了感恩节晚餐。

很⾼兴我们⽣活在⼀个和平的年代，并且有这么好的机会能够与朋友和老师们聚在⼀起享受⼀桌丰盛的食物。真心希望远道⽽来的外教老师们在青岛白珊学校能够体会到宾⾄如归的温暖。

05 Parent Meeting

家长会

At our last parent meeting that took place on November 29th, parents were provided an overview of what steps the school is taking to improve the level of English competence of our students. An English Learning Plan, or ELP, has been created for each student, and progress will be checked at three different times over the course of the school year.

Finally, concepts such as risk taking, creativity, and divergent thinking were reviewed with parents to reinforce their understanding and importance in guiding teaching and learning at Baishan AWS.

11月29日（周五）下午家长会，家长们了解了学校为提高孩子们的英语水平所采取的一系列措施。学校为每个学生制定了英语学习计划（ELP），并将在本学年的三个不同时间检查他们的学习进度。

最后，家长和老师们一起交流分享如何培养学生的冒险精神、创造力和发散性思维等，以加强家长们对白珊·安妮教学的理解和指导意义。
