善良的人总是快乐,感恩的人总是知足,感恩是一种生活态度。
本学期,经过寒假假期和开学初第一个月的认真准备,海淀凯文初中部集会进行了改革——初中部集会以班级为单位,以学生为主角,各班轮流上台合作展示,围绕蓑羽鹤精神之“自由、勇气、高度”,切合凯文教育理念之“培养具有家国情怀和国际视野的领袖人才”。初中部集会中还含有丰富的学科活动和体育比赛活动。
2021年5月19日,在海淀凯文初中部集会中,7B的全体同学通过演讲、采访、视频制作等不同形式,进行以“感恩”为主题的展示。感恩是一种处世哲学,是生活中的大智慧,拥有一颗感恩的心会积极面对挫折困难。
7B班班主任张赛老师(Janice)说:“这次晨会准备过程中,7B的同学一起策划,一起分配任务,发挥自己所长,没有任何推脱情绪,而且都出色地完成了分配给自己的任务。崔一贤同学更是利用周末整整两天的时间进行视频的剪辑。从视频录制、剪辑,和其他节目的排练,直到最后的主持和呈现,他们都值得表扬!”
现在,让我们看看7B全体同学在初中部集会中的精彩展示吧!
Alisa同学发表了以“感恩”为主题的英文演讲,她分享了自己对感恩的理解,并介绍7B班的采访视频。
Gratefulness is an emotion, and gratitude is a kind of responsibility. From the dictionary, grateful, is the feeling or showing an appreciation of kindness, and gratitude, is the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness. But actually, grateful means something differently to everyone. For example for me, It is a life attitude, an excellent quality, and a moral sentiment. Gratitude is the expression of appreciation for what one has. And having gratitude is what reminds you of what is truly important in life. Because of that, our class made a video of interviews based on three questions, which is "What do you think we should be grateful for""What does it mean to be grateful" and "What did you do for your parents or teachers to show your gratitude". And now, let's enjoy the video made by 7B about being grateful.
针对“你怎么理解感恩” “我们应该感恩什么” “你是如何表达自己的感恩的”,Hilary、Sam、Mary进行视频采访录制,Eason、Hillary、Mike进行视频后期剪辑。视频中,Tiger、Julia、Sam、Elsa、Cici、Mingjun、Zhengyuan、Kathy同学展示了对感恩的理解,Elizabeth Lasure、Jeff Boggan、Stewart Bone老师也分享了生活中自己对他人心怀感恩的事例。
“Showing our thankfulness isn't complicated. By simply saying thank you, we can make the other person feel appreciated!”(表达感恩其实并不复杂,我们只需要说一声谢谢,就可以让对方感到暖心!)
“Thanks to nature. We have so much beauty around us.”(感谢大自然,有那么多美丽的事物在我们身边。)
Julia同学分享自己与宠物鹦鹉的故事。因为曾看到别人都有宠物猫狗而失落,她与妈妈商量,最后决定养一只鸟。她给这只鹦鹉起名为Banana,她与Banana成为了好朋友,Banana会为她唱歌,一人一鸟也一起愉快玩耍。她很感激与Banana共度的美好时光,也感谢自己选择了养一只鸟作为宠物。
Mike、Eason、Ian、Linda四位同学为自己的老师或父母写了英文感谢信,将自己的感恩之情书写出来——感谢老师的辛勤教诲,感谢父母的养育之恩。
让我们以一颗感恩的心,尊敬父母,尊敬老师,学会关心和帮助他人,并久存一颗感恩的心吧!
