W7 · ASSEMBLY

Permission to Feel感受的许可

Feeling irritated, low or nervous is not wrong — emotions are reactions that get “ignited”, not character flaws. What we need to learn is how to live with them. Students learned RULER, a “protocol” for managing emotions. Tap each letter:感到烦躁、失落、紧张都不是错——情绪是被点燃的反应,而不是品格问题;真正需要学习的,是如何与情绪相处。老师带孩子们认识了情绪管理的“操作规程”——RULER。点击字母了解:

With the Mood Meter and 100 emotion words, students practised naming feelings precisely — “I’m so annoyed” is a blur; “I feel offended, and a little ashamed” is a map.借助“情绪仪表”(Mood Meter)和一百个情绪词汇,孩子们练习把感受说得更精确——“烦死了”是模糊的一团,“我感到被冒犯,还有点羞愧”才是一张地图。

My Emotional Rights: everything I feel is allowed; I can name it; I will choose how to express it; I have ways to cool down.我的情绪权利宣言:我感到的一切都被允许,我能说出它的名字,我会为它选择合适的表达,我有办法给自己降温。

W9 · STUDENT-LED ASSEMBLY

A Trip Around the World一场“环球旅行”

At this student-led assembly, students confidently took the stage to share the people and cultures of four countries — from geography and food to festivals and traditions — taking the whole school on a “trip around the world”.本周的学生主导集会上,同学们自信地走上讲台,分享了四个国家的风土人情。从地理风貌到饮食习惯,从节日传统到特色文化,孩子们用自己的视角和语言,带全校师生完成了一场“环球旅行”。

Behind confident speaking: careful preparation and lots of practice. Well done!自信大方的表达背后,是充分的准备与反复的练习——为孩子们点赞!

W10 · ASSEMBLY · 8D

No Winners in Bullying霸凌中没有赢家

8D opened the assembly with a three-act drama showing real situations — online mockery, violence in the name of “loyalty”, and online abuse — helping students see the line between “just joking” and bullying.8D 班同学以情景剧形式拉开反霸凌主题教育序幕。三幕短剧还原了网络群嘲、“义气”施暴、线上谩骂等真实场景,引导同学们辨析“开玩笑”与霸凌的边界。

8D’s “NOT” self-protection rule8D 发布的“NOT 自护原则”
NNo — bravely say “no”No:勇敢说“不”
OOff — leave the unsafe placeOff:撤离危险环境
TTell — tell a teacher or parent right awayTell:第一时间告诉老师家长

Bystanders learned safe phrases to interrupt bullying, such as “A teacher is coming” or “The class monitor is looking for you”.旁观者也学习了用“老师来了”“班长找你”等话术安全打断欺凌。

Students discussed how to respond safely and seek help from trusted adults.同学们学习了如何安全应对,并向信任的老师或家长求助。
