G1-4 Chinese Culture Week Series——Chinese poetry competition

As the old saying goes, one who is filled with knowledge always behaves with elegance. During the Chinese classes on April 25th, the third graders and fourth graders had their third Chinese Poetry Competition in the Primary Section Auditorium. Unlike last year, the teachers and 6 students of Yifu Primary School were also invited to join this competition.

Every class had elected the champion of poetry to attend the finals of the Chinese Poetry Competition today. We named all six teams after different topics related to Chinese lyre music.

In each team, a third grader and a fourth grader worked with one student from Yifu Primary School. Altogether there were six teams, each answering questions in order to win the prize. Each team had one chance to turn to their teachers or classmates for help. All the contestants performed with confidence and calm. They also wowed the audience with their broad range of poetry knowledge.

At the end, the winning teams were awarded by principal Ms. Bao, Ms. Pan and Ms.Yue from Yifu Primary School. Ms. Pan gave the speech.She was deeply impressed by the enthusiasm students showed for poetry.

Grade 1 students also had great activities today. G1 teachers organized different games for students. The only way to move on to the next level was to answer the question about Chinese poetry correctly. All students participated with their all passion. They learned a lot of Chinese poetry in different games.

2nd graders were keeping learning twenty-four solar terms in China today. They presented the “Story of twenty-four solar terms” on their iPads with their team members.

There will be more colorful activities related Chinese culture later in this week.

浦西小学段：诗词节气古音韵，徜徉其中乐逍遥

——小学段中国文化周系列报道

4月25 日，小学段继续进行着丰富多彩的文化周活动！

期中场面最盛大的要数三四年级诗词大赛了。本届诗词大赛不仅有国际部三四年级的同学积极参与，还有六位逸夫小学的同学共同组队。大家同场竞技，互相切磋，场面好不精彩！

本次大赛决赛紧紧围绕中国文化周“韵”的主题展开，六支参赛队伍的队名分别为霓裳羽衣、兰陵入阵、平沙落雁、阳关三叠、高山流水、阳春白雪六支古曲。决赛比赛环节也是轮轮精彩，各有千秋。既有经典的“默契联诗”（接力背诵带有固定字眼的诗句），也有新颖的“循音辨诗”（根据英语或粤语的录音说出正确的诗句）。这要求参赛选手不仅要有强大的“诗词库”做储备，还要对古诗词极为熟悉。由于题目难度逐轮递增，我们还给每支队伍准备了一枚锦囊，必要的时候他们可以求助，一解燃眉之急。随着环节的层层推进，丰富多样的题目以及让人应接不暇，台上的选手绞尽脑汁，大展风采，台下的观众聚精会神、跃跃欲试。

诗词大赛决赛在孩子们热烈的掌声中落下帷幕，包校长、逸夫小学的潘主任和岳老师为获奖队伍颁发了奖牌。潘主任上台致辞，她被热烈的气氛所感染，对此次精彩绝伦的诗词大赛给予了高度评价。

除了三四年级的诗词大赛，一二年级也是精彩持续。

一年级小朋友依旧化身“御猫”，在诗词的“宫殿”中闯关探险。今天他们都使出浑身本事，在形式多样的游戏闯关活动中亲近古诗词，体会古诗词。每个孩子都为了闯过“关卡”拼尽了全力。大家既享受了“过关斩将”的成就感，也学习和积累了更多诗词知识。

二年级的同学们继续围绕“二十四节气”展开了学习。今天他们将节气知识与iPad软件效果相结合，展示了他们精心制作编排的节气小故事。大家按照春、夏、秋、冬四个季节分组，把每一组的六个小故事串联起来，生动有趣地展现了可视化的“节气故事”。这个活动既锻炼了小朋友的合作能力，又使大家加深了对“二十四节气”的记忆和理解。

我们的中国文化周活动还将精彩继续，请期待！
