10月24日中午，初中高端英語項(xiàng)目“High 談多彩萬圣節(jié)，貼近英美文化”英語角活動(dòng)在寬敞,、明亮的國際展廳舉行。本次“英語角”活動(dòng)由外籍教師 Mr. Sean策劃并主持,。初中高端英語項(xiàng)目外籍教師Miss Emily,、Mr. Amar、Mr. Adam,、Mr. Harris以及初一,、初二,、初三全高端英語項(xiàng)目共計(jì)70余名學(xué)生參加了本次活動(dòng)。
活動(dòng)伊始,，外籍教師們分別裝扮成“羅馬士兵”“紅衣女巫”“海盜船長們”,。看到外教們的裝扮,，學(xué)生們頓時(shí)興奮起來,。Mr. Sean接著向同學(xué)們介紹了萬圣節(jié)的由來及習(xí)俗還說明了本次英語角活動(dòng)的目的和意義，鼓勵(lì)學(xué)生積極表現(xiàn)自己,，抓住每個(gè)練習(xí)口語的機(jī)會(huì),。
在熱身活動(dòng)中，Mr. Sean給大家指定了不同的經(jīng)典萬圣節(jié)角色,，每個(gè)人需要把角色條貼在自己的腦門上不允許偷看,，再通過用英語詢問的方式弄清楚自己到底是什么角色。在活動(dòng)過程中中外籍教師們頻繁和同學(xué)們互動(dòng),，幫助大家迅速地融入英語交流環(huán)境中,。
接著Mr. Sean讓同學(xué)們自由結(jié)成6人的小組，進(jìn)行了三輪有獎(jiǎng)競(jìng)猜環(huán)節(jié),。三輪答題環(huán)節(jié)中同學(xué)們快速組隊(duì),，首先對(duì)Mr. Sean提出的萬圣節(jié)的起源的時(shí)間、地點(diǎn),、習(xí)俗,、文化等10個(gè)問題認(rèn)真進(jìn)行討論；第二輪和第三輪中同學(xué)們就典型的萬圣節(jié)角色進(jìn)行名稱拼寫和重新排序,?；顒?dòng)中，同學(xué)們爭(zhēng)先恐后地回答問題,，希望得到“戰(zhàn)利品”,。
最后的分小組編寫恐怖故事環(huán)節(jié)將整個(gè)英語角活動(dòng)推向了高潮。 每組根據(jù)Mr. Sean的提示語編寫富有創(chuàng)意的英文恐怖故事,， 在準(zhǔn)備過程中,，教師們也融入了學(xué)生們的小組討論中，幫助他們擴(kuò)寬思路,、輔導(dǎo)學(xué)生用英語進(jìn)行表達(dá),，鼓勵(lì)不同層次的學(xué)生進(jìn)行相應(yīng)的語言表達(dá)，與同學(xué)們共同創(chuàng)作,?；顒?dòng)末尾，四位學(xué)生代表進(jìn)行精彩展示，他們用幽默的語氣和充滿創(chuàng)意的方式表演他們的搞笑恐怖故事,，引來了同學(xué)們的陣陣歡呼和掌聲,。
通過本次英語角活動(dòng),，體現(xiàn)了初中高端英語課程班學(xué)生們濃厚的英語學(xué)習(xí)氛圍,，拉近了學(xué)生與中外籍教師之間的距離，為同學(xué)們提供了施展口語才華,、互相交流學(xué)習(xí)的平臺(tái),，相信在這樣的語言氛圍下初中高端英語課程班的學(xué)生們一定能體驗(yàn)到英語學(xué)習(xí)的美妙，更為重要的是,，讓英語這門工具語言真正走入學(xué)生的生活,，成為他們終身受用的寶貴財(cái)富。
附：學(xué)生英語角活動(dòng)后感想
@ Class 1 Grade 7, 王愉悅Mary ：As a Grade 7 student, I’m so lucky today to join the English corner today. The topic is about Halloween, which is amazing. I was totally amazed when I see my English teacher dressed as a Rome soldier, the other foreign dressed as witch or pirate. That was fun. We played games like “guess who I am” and we have quiz about Halloween knowledge. The winning team got a big bowl of chocolate .I really envy that. Also, we wrote scary stories about Halloween, some students from Grade 8 or Grade 9 did a very good job. They have great writing skill. I should learn from them. Anyway, great activity!
@ Class 1, Grade 7, 李昕宇Jason ：I’m so excited to join the English corner hosted by Sean today. At the lecture, I learned the history and tradition of Halloween. I like the scary stories written by the students. They are so scary and funny. Our teacher’s costumes are impressive. I think it is a good way for us to understand western culture. Hope there will be more activities like this.
@ Class 1, Grade 7 李培生Percy ：I never thought the topic of today’s English corner is about Halloween. I thought Halloween is still far away. So that’s why I like the quiz part the most. I learned so much about Halloween. It has a history of more than 400 years, wow! Also, I learned some scary features about Halloween like monster, witch, zombie, mommy, so on and so forth. Our team did a wonderful job in the quiz part and got lots of candies for that, yeah!
@ Class 10, Grade 9 朱芳菲 Sophia ：I am very happy to join the English Corner activities today, and I think it's a good place for my classmates and me to practice oral English.The topic of today's English Corner was HALLOWEEN. All the teachers dressed in costumes, and Halloween decorations were set up around the classroom. Today we have got three games.The first game is GUESS WHO. The teacher gave each one a paper strip with a name of a character. We needed to guess our own characters through other classmate’s descriptions. At the same time, we needed to help others to work out, too. I quickly guessed who I was, and helped two students to get their character as well. Then we had the HALLOWEEN QUIZ. We not only enjoyed fun questions, but also learned about Halloween with the help our teachers and classmates. The last game is STORIES, which is my favorite part. I was so excited to cooperate with new friends in English, and we really made up a wonderful story. I was impressed by today’s English Corner. I think took away a lot from today’s activities. Thanks to our dear teachers for giving us such precious opportunity.
@ Class 10,Grade 9 苗樂琪 Hogan：Today we enjoyed a Halloween themed English corner. When we stepped in the classroom, we felt the whole classroom was filled with Halloween atmosphere——teachers wearing Halloween customs and delicate decorations like ghosts, pumpkins hanging on the ceiling. At the beginning, we had a little warm-up aimed to guess one’s own identity by asking buddies questions. Then we were divided into several groups, and each group had their own paper to answer quiz about Halloween like its history, traditions, and useful word expressions. At last, each group created a scary story and shared various plots with funny and surprising endings. We all certainly had fun during today’s English corner, and what's more important, we are making progress on our English skills.
@ Class 10, Grade 9 程子熙 Andy ：Today, we took part in an English corner and we enjoyed three games about Halloween. Finding identity is our first game. We held word cards on our forehead without looking at it and walked around the room to asked students questions. After exchange, I finally guessed who I was---a dragon!Next, we had a quiz on Halloween. Everyone made contributions to their groups and enriched their extra-curricular knowledge. During the discussion, I really appreciated our teacher’s instructions and I also met some new friends here. Then we had a brainstorm, everyone expressed their own ideas, and each group made up a fantastic ghost story. I think today’s activity is very meaningful. It gave us a chance to learn about Halloween, it’s a good place to learn English, and I really look forward to next English Corner activity,。
