往下翻阅中文部分，精彩继续！

One Friday, as Teemo was coming home from school with his mother, she mentioned that it was the weekend and that he didn’t need to go back to school the next day. He immediately replied that he was disappointed, as he wanted to go to school and attend class. This was a surprising change for the usually softspoken Teemo, who would only give brief answers about what he had learned at school. Teemo was often more reserved, but after transferring to BCIS in Grade 3, he made plenty of friends and become confident at expressing his own ideas and interests. In fact, in his recent video submission for the Uniquely YOUniquely BCIS video contest, an outgoing Teemo can be seen around the school studying and playing with his new friends and teachers. But what caused this change? It turns out that the welcoming and supportive environment at BCIS empowered Teemo to become a collaborative learner who is no longer afraid to take on any challenge. 

Teemo’s video, titled The New Chapter, opens with him sitting alone on the school bleachers, a dreary drizzle falling from the sky on a dark and cloudy day. This mood perfectly matches Teemo’s reflections on the uncertainty he felt coming to a new school, starting an important new chapter in his life. However, as the music crescendos, the viewer suddenly finds Teemo inside the Elementary School (ES), happily working with other students on various projects. As he explains, Teemo’s fears of a new learning environment were unfounded, and he quickly made friends with a diverse group of classmates. “During my time at BCIS, I have become more confident, open-minded, compassionate, I believe that experience will always help me,” Teemo muses as the video comes to a close. 

Transitioning to a new school environment is always a challenge, especially for younger students. Although the move to a new school was daunting for Teemo, he slowly but surely warmed up to his new community. “After Teemo slowly became comfortable in his new environment, he opened his personality and began to develop,” explains Teemo’s mother. The supportive school environment at the BCIS ES encourages young learners to explore and allows them to grow. For example, when Teemo stayed at school overnight for the Grade 3 sleepover, he got to know his classmates better and became even more willing to share with them. 

What makes the environment in the ES so welcoming for students? One key aspect is the personalized nature of learning that happens at BCIS. One way the ES personalizes learning is by ensuring students have the time and access to a wide range of learning opportunities during the school day. For Teemo, one of his favorite activities at school is the rock band. Although he just picked up an electric guitar after coming to BCIS, Teemo is already a rockstar confident enough to perform on stage. Finding his passion for music through personalization is one of many ways BCIS has made learning a wonderful experience for Teemo. 

Rock band is just one of many activities for curious students to explore in the ES. From other musical instruments like violin to sports, games and art, young learners are offered plenty of freedom to discover new experiences. In the classroom, students are challenged to connect their passions with their projects and collaborate with others to learn about their interests. This collaboration makes it easy for learners to quickly make friends, learn from other students and confidently share their own ideas. Teachers ensure that students are well supported, guiding them to find their strengths and challenging them to improve their skills. 

Before fading out, the final frame of The New Chapter shows Teemo jumping for joy outside the gate of BCIS. Although his unique experience of transferring from another school makes Teemo’s BCIS journey extra special, he isn’t the only one celebrating when he gets to the school gate every morning. The open-minded community of Warriors makes the school a very special place to learn and grow. This strong community ensures that even if you are facing the challenge of starting your next chapter at BCIS, you will not have to worry about finding a place you belong.  

视频中的男孩叫Teemo，自22年转入乐成后，这段原创视频记录了转学一年的变化：逐渐融入社区，和伙伴们愉悦地上课、奔跑。然而，Teemo妈妈告诉我们，除了从一个稍显内向的小男孩逐渐融入新环境外，乐成的学习是标志着Teemo学习成长真正的“新篇章”，是向一个好奇、勇敢，自信的乐成小勇士转变的真正开始。

生动课程和社区氛围

是天然的“破冰”方式

加入乐成之前，Teemo在父母眼中是个内向、慢热的男孩子。为了帮助他敞开心扉，去年九月，父母将Teemo送入到乐成三年级的课堂。“我听闻中乐成的孩子无不充满自信，这是我想要赋予孩子的一种品质。”

起初因为上网课和刚刚加入新学校的生涩，让Teemo经历了一段转学适应期。每当妈妈问起学校生活，Teemo的回答总是有些“言简意赅”。

然而，变化发生在重返校园沉浸在线下的课程后。在IB PYP生动的课程中，孩子们可以基于一个探究单元展开合作和交流。Teemo妈妈回忆道，在中文课上，孩子们学习了一篇关于水果的文章后，老师将水果带到了班级，让孩子们一同亲身“体验” 多种水果的味道。她认为，这样立体有趣的项目制合作学习是帮助Teemo打开自己的，激发探索的天然机会。 

“乐成的老师也会给予孩子尊重” Teemo妈妈说道，“老师会根据性格、学习方式平衡分组，让大家在团队中都能发表意见。” 在真实的合作沟通中，Teemo妈妈也发现了孩子的转变——在学习了人体构造后，回到家的Teemo开始主动分享一些人体消化知识，这让妈妈感到欣喜。

对于Teemo来说，内心的“破冰”还得益于开放，轻松有趣的社区活动和氛围。紧密的家校关系给了Teemo很大的安全感。 父母可以时常进入学校，这缓解了Teemo紧张的心。同时， 定期的开放活动和户外学习，让Teemo感受到了校园的活力和温暖。

“无边界学习周（WWW）”给Teemo和妈妈很深的感触。三年级的孩子们留宿学校一起过夜，互相照顾。“Teemo告诉我，他们甚至能听到彼此打鼾的声音”，对于孩子们来说，这是个新鲜有趣的体验。对于乐成而言，独特的“学习” 方式无疑帮助小小成员之间建立起更深的纽带。而这次活动也像彻底打开Teemo的内心钥匙一样，也让妈妈看到了他的彻底融入。“周五回到家，我问Teemo是否因为周末而开心，而Teemo的回答让我出于意料！” Teemo告诉妈妈，比起周末，他更喜欢和伙伴们的学校时光。

用兴趣点燃勇敢与探索热情

好奇少年初长成

融入之后，‘以学生为中心’的个性化环境支持 Teemo有了更大的成长蜕变，Teemo妈妈提及，“乐成从来不一概而论，而是关注每个孩子的个性和喜好。让我印象深刻的是Teemo刚刚进入学校，老师在得知他内向的性格后帮我想了一个好办法！” Teemo妈妈描述道，老师询问了孩子的兴趣，而在了解到Teemo在音乐和作曲方面的特长后，帮助找到音乐老师，希望能给Teemo更多展示自己的机会。而在Teemo妈妈眼里，来自老师的这一“暖心”举动，不仅帮助Teemo延伸了自己的兴趣天地，也为性格的成长带来了一系列“连锁反应”。

音乐作曲——四岁开始学习钢琴的Teemo在这一领域展现出了不起的天赋。在老师家长的鼓励和兴趣驱使下，Teemo加入了学校的摇滚乐队。这不仅让他有机会用自己最爱的窗口抒发想法，也在过程中逐渐变得充满热情、勇敢、自信。Teemo曾带妈妈参观了摆满乐器的音乐教室，对着每种乐器一一讲解展示，眼里闪烁着好奇与兴奋。而Teemo也开始期待每一场表演，跃跃欲试想要和伙伴登台展示。更令人惊喜的是，没有选择熟悉的键盘，乐队中的Teemo勇敢地表示了想要征服一种新乐器——电吉他，并跟着音乐老师自学和弦。在Teemo眼里，挑战不同是一件很“酷”的事。而我们发现，一种不墨守成规的勇气，和强烈探索欲望在这个小小少年的心中渐渐生根发芽。

只需要一点火星，好奇心就能被立即点燃。这种性格也慢慢渗透在Teemo在乐成学习生活的更多面。与伙伴一起，Teemo找到了学校的Film TV社团寻求加入。“做摄影师需要更大的力气，我更喜欢也适合做灯光部分。” Teemo在和妈妈的聊天中开始给自己做起“兴趣规划”，并迸发出一连串畅想。

而Teemo的和妈妈的交流也不再是“言简意赅”，妈妈看到了孩子的好奇心和主动性随时随地会被点亮：“比如当他在校车上听到‘元素周期表’后，就开始抱着Ipad自学相关内容； 受到班级里一位喜欢阅读珠宝书籍同学的启发，Teemo立刻表示‘妈妈，我也要变得和她一样厉害，有想法，成为某个领域的专家’；恐龙和宇宙是Teemo感兴趣的领域，他购买了很多相关的书籍兴致勃勃地开启了阅读。‍

“我”有话说

我的视频故事我做主

前不久乐成举办了短视频创作大赛，希望学生们能够展示在校园中每一个充满个性，领导力和协作力的瞬间。Teemo随即决定拉着从事专业领域的爸爸参赛。然而实际的拍摄过程却是Teemo作为一名小导演的真实经历。

对于拍摄，Teemo爸爸已然“轻车熟路”，不仅因为是一名资深的从业者，乐成紧密的家校互动和开放的校园环境让爸爸可以时常陪伴Teemo的校园生活。观察比赛、参与活动、记录影像，爸爸对此感到乐此不疲。

然而，没有依赖爸爸和往日的片段素材，Teemo对此次的新拍摄提出了一系列建议。带着爸爸，Teemo去到了那些令他印象深刻的校园场景。此外，当拍摄遇到雨天时，他却别出心裁地认为，“或许雨天比起晴天更加适合开场，可以与转学到乐成之后开心的学习场景形成对比。” 在视频中，我们惊喜地发现很多孩子自己的构思。或许对于Teemo 来说，一年的乐成学习也让他意识到“新篇章”的真正含义，和自己悄然的变化。而视频也是记录成长，向更多社区成员分享故事的独特形式。

我们相信，在视频结尾，在校门口舒展双臂，纵身跳跃的Teemo已然懂得了一名乐成小勇士的精神，勇敢、热情、自信，并开启了不断向其进阶的新的学习篇章。我们希望陪同Teemo遇见更多成长，也期待见证更多社区成员精彩的乐成故事！
