国际学校里的小升初

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.

本周是我校五年级学生的适应周，他们有机会体验作为六年级学生的学习状态。我们为每名学生安排了一名来自六年级的小伙伴，这样他们就可以更直接地了解六年级学生在校的日常学习情况。同时，他们参与各种课堂学习，体验中学学生的日常。

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.

我校小学和中学最大的不同之一在于上课的科目和授课的教师。跟着各自六年级的小伙伴，五年级学生学习如何安排自己的时间，确保自己可以按时到达课堂并携带好上课必需的物品。他们还体验了设计和科学课，因为这些科目在专业教室授课，往往会是当天学习的亮点。适应周还为五年级学生和六年级教师提供了提前了解对方的机会。

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

总的来说，适应周是帮助五年级学生提前适应中学生活的有效途径。
