课外课程——芳香疗法

Aromatherapy ECA

常州威雅小学部的课外课程“芳香疗法”因其生动有趣的课程设置在学生中格外受欢迎。学生们会学习蜡的不同类型，并收获制作布丁型蜡烛和水果塔型蜡烛的美妙体验。

For our aromatherapy ECA this year, as one of the most interesting and popular ECAs at school, pupils taking part have learned about different kinds of waxes. Those involved had great fun producing amazing pudding candles and fruit tart candles.

这门课外课程旨在培养学生的精细动作操控能力、动手能力、创造力和合作能力。学生们经常“沉浸式”进行布丁蜡烛制作，其中最吸引学生的一点是他们可以将各自的创意融入制作过程中。与此同时，为了做出最精美的蜡烛，学生们对不同种类蜡的熔点都了然于心，以便利用蜡的熔点不同这一特点通过熔化再制作新的作品。

This ECA aims to develop pupil’s fine motor manipulations skill, manual skill, creativity, and collaboration. Pupils enjoyed creating their own pudding candles especially they could add their own creative ideas into their creations. Meanwhile, when mastering how to produce awesome candles, students have mastered different waxes’ melting points and applied different melting points waxes to fuse and create new products.

众所周知，秋季是绚烂多姿、收获累累硕果的季节，但对于在常州的我们来说却也是转瞬即逝的一个季节。为了留住秋天，我们发起了一项名为“收集秋天”的活动。学生们可以漫步校园内，收集在草地上的落叶、花瓣和种子，再将它们装进布丁瓶内，设计出不同的形状。最后，学生们将透明的果冻蜡装入布丁模具中。经过漫长的等待，布丁蜡烛就制作完成啦！

As we known, autumn is a colorful and harvest season but it is very short in Changzhou. Therefore, we carried out an activity called “save autumn”. Pupils looked around school, found and collected different kinds of autumn plants, such as leaves, petals, and seeds that fell on the grass into their bags. Then pupils put those plants into their pudding bottles and designed different shapes. Finally, pupils filled transparent jelly wax into their pudding moulds. After waiting patiently, their puddings were complete!

我们希望未来有更多的学生加入这门精彩的课外课程，一起感受迷人的香气，收获鼓舞人心的团队合作体验。

We hope to have more and more people take part in this fascinating ECA in the future, complete with fantastic smells and encouraging teamwork!
