根深中华 美绽世界——走进华美IB特色课程（一）| Entering the IB characteristic course

　　华美外国语学校坐落于美丽的梧桐山下，山明水秀、层峦叠翠，学校建筑雕梁画栋，置身其中犹如进入城堡一般引人入胜。在教育教学方面，我校实施IB理念下的“中西融合 华美人生”课程体系，该课程基于国家课程标准，融合国际课程元素，充分发挥了两种课程的优势。

　　In the aspect of education and teaching, our school implements the curriculum system of "Integration of Chinese and Western Life" under the IB concept, which is based on the national curriculum standards, integrates the high-quality elements of international courses, and gives full play to the advantages of the two courses.

　　IB课程即国际组织IBO(International Baccalaureate Organization)为全球学生开设从幼儿园到大学预科预备的课程，近年来，IB课程项目正以其教育思想和独特的课程结构，日渐引起世人的瞩目。它的思想和实践也开始超越"国际学校"的范围，步入世界各地一些富有创新意识和兼容精神的普通中小学。

　　In recent years, IB curriculum project is attracting worldwide attention with its leading educational ideas and unique curriculum structure.

　　华美外国语学校以国家课程标准为纲要，将中国教育的优势与IB教育理念相融合，打造了华美的“4+1+1”课程体系，即在一周的学习中，四天采用分科教学，完成国家规定的课程大纲，周五采用主题式IB课程教学。

　　With the national curriculum standards as the outline, Huamei Foreign Language School combines the advantages of Chinese education with IB educational philosophy, and creates a gorgeous and unique "4+1+1" curriculum system.

　　同时，学校还在每周开设了CAS课程(Creativity,Action,Service),它是一种综合性质的活动课程,是IB项目的核心课程之一。

　　The school also runs CAS (Creativity,Action,Service) every week, which is a comprehensive activity course and one of the core courses of IB project.

　　此外，四天的分科教学也使用了IB理念下的超学科探究教学，把国家课程的语文、数学、科学、人文等学科的核心知识融合在探究单元中，使用概念驱动，结合实际生活，引导学生自主学习。在形式内容丰富的课程中，着重培养孩子质疑、探究、合作、动手等综合能力，为孩子的终身学习打下坚实基础。

　　In the curriculum with rich forms and contents, we should focus on cultivating children's comprehensive abilities such as questioning, exploring, cooperating and practicing, so as to lay a solid foundation for children's lifelong learning.

　　相信在IB理念的引领下，华美定能构建学校的IB特色课程文化，培养出一批又一批具有中国魂的世界公民，国际化的全球精英。

　　I believe that under the guidance of IB concept, Huamei will be able to construct the unique IB characteristic curriculum culture of the school, and cultivate a batch of world citizens with Chinese soul and international global elites.
