The first week of school flew by! The start of a new school year is always an exciting time, and it’s great to see ISD students eagerly embracing their studies. They have been very busy settling into their routines, reconnecting with their peers and teachers, and immersing themselves in their learning.

转眼间,开学第一周已经过去!新学年的开始总是令人振奋的,ISD学生们已经回归课堂学习。在开学的第一个星期,学生逐渐适应作息时间,与同学和老师重新建立紧密联系,沉浸在学习的状态中。

Grade 11 students participated in a four-day IB Bootcamp during the first week of school. Students collaborated with their teachers to learn about the five Areas of Knowledge (AoKs) in TOK and practiced the required skills to be successful in Grades 11-12. They worked in groups to analyze global issues from multiple perspectives using interdisciplinary knowledge and to present their findings.

11年级学生在开学第一周参加了为期四天的IB训练营。在老师的指导下,学生一起了解了TOK知识论的五个知识领域,以及练习在11和12年级取得成功所需的技能。他们以小组合作的形式,综合利用不同知识领域的知识,从多角度分析全球问题,并展示他们的学习成果。

Parent orientation sessions were organized during the first week of school to provide parents with information on “What is international education at ISD?” and how to access digital platforms utilized at ISD, allowing them to support their children using the platforms. Furthermore, the school organized orientations for parents of Grade 11 and 12 students to help them understand their child’s stage of learning and academic needs, as well as to foster home-school collaborations in students’ academic development.

学校还举办了家长说明会,让家长深入了解“什么是ISD的国际教育?”,以及学习如何使用ISD的学习平台,以便更好地支持孩子学习。此外,学校面向11和12年级家长开展了学习阶段介绍会,旨在帮助家长了解孩子所处的学习阶段和学业需求,促进家校合作,共同推动学生学术发展。
