To: Parents of 6th Grade students
In recent classes we have discussed the importance of resilience (having the strength of character to bounce back and succeed after defeat or serious injury) and resourcefulness (being able to do the best you can with whatever you have). from the journeys book, we read the story of a young woman who needed her left leg amputated, but who bounced back to compete in the Paralympics. Our core book for this semester is Island of the Blue Dolphins, which is a compelling tale of a woman who showed great courage and resourcefulness to survive almost 20 years alone on an island over 100 km off the coast of California.
Resilience and resourcefulness are two of the qualities needed to successfully complete a Summative Task and during this past week, we have seen the students working together to produce thought-provoking PPTs and to role-play scenes that illustrate their Central Ideas. Since the theme is “Who We Are”, we expected them to build upon what they have learned and thought about over the last 6 weeks on the topic of what influences people to become the kind of unique individuals they are. Is it mostly culture? beliefs? parents? the environment? or a mixture of each one? Working in collaboration with other students hasn’t always been easy and there were some personality conflicts, but we believe that the training in cooperation they get through this is as valuable as the other lessons.
Most students have recently completed the Reading Evaluation – which is how we measure the level of reading material that is suitable for them. Many of them have made notable progress since last year; however, it is essential that all students make consistent progress in their reading. For this reason, we would like to ask you to encourage your child to regularly take advantage of the Raz-kids program (at least twice a week). This resource provides many opportunities for kids to read about things they are interested in (thousands of books to choose from); with an ‘audio book’ feature that allows them to hear someone read the book as they read the text (a great way to improve listening skills and their pronunciation at the same time). There are also basic comprehension questions at the end of each book to give the readers a chance to see if they really did understand the material.
Please feel free to contact any one of us Grade 6 teachers if you have any questions or suggestions or if your child is not able to enter the Raz-kids website.
Sincerely,
Tony Davidson
探討問題
- 歧視的種類
- 歧視的成因
- 歧視的例子
- 歧視帶來的影響
- 反歧視相關法律規定
- 透過學術對話,加深孩子對於此課題的認識。
- 專家學習(各組隨機抽籤選出專家),讓孩子了解其他各組不同的主題內容。
- 九宮格思考法:提出反歧視的實際作為。(要有落實的可能性,而非唱高調)
學生回饋反思
我曾經遇到歧視的情形:在公共場所裡,我偶爾會看見有行動不便或有殘障人士被人歧視,看在眼裡真令人難過。我們的社會有部分人缺乏同理心,導致歧視的狀況時有所聞。因此,我認為人人都應該要從基本學起:尊重他人。
如果我不自覺歧視別人,那就代表我的修養不足,我應該要時時自我反省,祈求上帝寬恕我的無知,盡力修煉我的品格,並且有能力幫助弱勢族群。就像一直推動族群和平的曼德拉曾說:我對抗白人統治,我也對抗黑人統治。我珍視民主自由社會,所有人能和諧共處,擁有均等的機會。我為此理想而生,也希望有朝一日能達成這個理想。

學校的樓層中,就畫著:
25*25(平方公分)、50*50(平方公分)、
100*100(平方公分)=1平方公尺、200*200(平方公分)=4平方公尺
帶著孩子實際測量與觀察,
孩子們不但認識面積、了解邊長與面積間的關係,也了解所謂的密度。
其實,數學就在生活中,觀察周圍的環境,說不定會有意想不到的收穫喔!
★推薦書籍
其實這本書還有其他續集「歷史刺繡人」、「森林送信人」、「我兒加比」。
這四本書彼此獨立,各有主角,但基本架構仍然有連結之處,且主軸都不離對愛的渴望與反思,相當好看,非常推薦!
