XHA Maker Faire丨國際融合部校園創(chuàng)客作品展

時間飛速而過，轉(zhuǎn)眼已經(jīng)來到了12月，國際融合部PYP的同學(xué)們都取得了顯著進(jìn)步。第二單元的結(jié)束對同學(xué)們來說是一個里程碑，在此次“Maker Faire·創(chuàng)意展”中，學(xué)生們分享他們的學(xué)習(xí)成果，并進(jìn)行展示與陳述，完整地向參觀者描述他們的制作過程。

It is already December! The last couple of months have gone by really fast and all the kids in our PYP section are showing outstanding progress in their learning. The end of unit two was a milestone for all our kids which culminated in the first ever school Maker Faire in Anhui province. The students shared their learning with the learning community and explained their final projects. Their presentations involved introducing the ‘maker’ process from beginning to end.

同學(xué)們的作品都與他們的班級有關(guān)，并且圍繞著“探究”這個主題深思熟慮，可不是隨意靈機(jī)一動的想法哦~

The final products were not just random ideas, but were all connected to their classes individual units of inquiry.

一年級學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)了有關(guān)于家庭的知識，并且深入了解與探究了自己家庭的歷史與故事，這一個模塊學(xué)習(xí)結(jié)束時，他們還制作了手工皂與家人分享。而Plastimake(一種可以手工塑形的塑料)也成為了學(xué)生們愛不釋手的玩具。

Grade 1 learned about their families and why it is important to document our family history. At the end of the unit one of their projects was to make soap to share with their family. Plastimake - plastic you can shape with your hands - was used to make objects they connected with their family. For some students, these turned into toys.

二年級和三年級的同學(xué)們學(xué)習(xí)了建筑和氣候的關(guān)系，以及在不同的氣候下如何進(jìn)行建筑材料的選擇。在6周的時間里，學(xué)生們發(fā)散思維，用不同的材料創(chuàng)造了形態(tài)各異的建筑。成果展示階段，同學(xué)們設(shè)定了氣候條件，并在此條件下充分考慮“與自然和諧”的主題，選擇合適的建筑材料，并注重可持續(xù)發(fā)展原則。

Grade 2 and 3 learned about architecture and how climate affects our choices of building and building materials. Over the course of 6 weeks, students created different kinds of buildings, using different kinds of materials and design ideas. For their final project, students chose a climate and designed buildings that would take into consideration the area it would be built in, being in harmony with nature and using building materials that were sustainable.

四年級和五年級的同學(xué)們學(xué)習(xí)了力和運動，深入探究對于力和運動的理解是如何讓發(fā)明家產(chǎn)生靈感的，以及這些發(fā)明如何影響了我們的生活……學(xué)習(xí)力和運動，首先得了解一些家喻戶曉的發(fā)明家，而阿基米德則是大多數(shù)學(xué)生研究的首位，有了他們新獲得的知識，實驗就在此基礎(chǔ)上開始。一些學(xué)生也挑戰(zhàn)自己，獨立發(fā)明了一些簡單的機(jī)器!

Grade 4 and 5 learned about forces and motion. They looked at how the understanding of forces and motion helps inventors, and also how inventions have influenced our lives…and still continue to do so. An inquiry into inventors gave the students a first idea what forces and motions are. Archimedes was on top of the list of most students research. With their newly won knowledge a lot of experimentation was set into motion. After that some students challenged themselves to invent their own simple machines.

六年級的學(xué)生從科學(xué)家的角度出發(fā)，學(xué)習(xí)科學(xué)家嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)細(xì)致的工作態(tài)度，以及了解世界的眼光和方法。“養(yǎng)雞計劃”只是學(xué)生們展示的眾多成果之一，看!他們使用木材和葉片鼓風(fēng)機(jī)，就建成了一個有模有樣的懸停板。

Grade 6 students put themselves into the shoes of scientists and focused on how scientists observe, experiment and work methodically in order to understand the world. The continuation of the chicken project was just one of the many undertakings the students put on display. Using wood and a leaf blower - An actual hover board was built!

在眾多作品中，爆米花和冰淇淋實驗吸引著每個同學(xué)的味蕾，讓大家興奮不已，我們的食品科學(xué)也做得很棒哦。我們的同學(xué)們都非常的優(yōu)秀!
