初秋的微风拂过校园，带来成长的讯息。本周，南昌国际学校二年级狮子班举办了一场温暖而特别的成果展示活动——“我们所处的时间与空间：寻根之旅”。狮子班的家长们与我们的“小小探险家”们齐聚一堂，共同揭开了这份沉淀数周、充满惊喜的成长礼物。
A gentle autumn breeze swept across the campus, carrying whispers of growth.This week, Nanchang International School’s Grade 2 Lion Class hosted a warm and special showcase event — Our Time and Space: A Journey of Discovery. Parents of the Lion Class gathered with our “little explorers” to unveil this gift of growth — filled with surprises and nurtured over weeks of dedicated work.
以好奇心为起点，开启探究之旅 Curiosity Starts with the Beginning of A Journey of Discovery
在本轮UOI单元中，孩子们化身“历史侦探”，围绕“了解家族历史，能帮助我们找到自己的文化根源”这一中心思想，展开了一场深刻的“寻根之旅”。他们从采访家人开始，追溯家庭的独特年轮；在对比中感受传统的传承与时代的变迁；并将视野拓展至更广阔的人类历史，理解我们与过去的深刻连接。
In this round of the UOI unit, the children transformed into “historical detectives” and embarked on a profound root-seeking journey, centered around the central idea that understanding family history can help us find our cultural roots.They began by interviewing family members and tracing the unique “growth rings” of their families — feeling the inheritance of tradition and the changes of the times through comparison. Their exploration extended to a broader human history, helping them understand our deep connection with the past.
时空胶囊：珍藏与分享的感动时刻 Time Capsule: Cherishing and Sharing Touching Moments
每一个孩子都珍藏着属于自己的“宝贝”——一幅描绘家族树的画作、一封写给家人的信、一件承载记忆的小物件……这些不仅仅是简单的手工作品，更是孩子们对“根”的稚嫩却真诚的理解，对“家”的深深珍视。
Every child treasured their own unique “belongings” — a drawing of a family tree, a letter written to their family, a small keepsake carrying memories… These are not merely simple handmade items, but a young and sincere expression of their understanding of “roots” and their deep cherishing of “family.”
孩子们自信、认真地向着爸爸妈妈介绍自己的珍藏，眼中闪烁着探究带来的光芒与自豪。这一幕幕温馨的分享，成为了活动中最动人的画面。
With confidence and attentiveness, the children introduced their cherished treasures to their parents, their eyes twinkling with curiosity and pride. These warm moments of sharing became the most heartwarming scenes of the entire event.
在温馨的封存环节，每个家庭共同完成，完成了充满仪式感的环节，并为这意义非凡的一刻留下了珍贵的合影。
During the touching sealing ceremony, each family worked together to complete this ritual, capturing a cherished photo to commemorate a moment of profound significance.
结束，亦是开始 Every End Is Also a Beginning
今日的“寻根之旅”成果展示虽已圆满落幕，但探索的种子已在孩子们心中深深埋下。这次活动不仅是一次知识的积累，更是一场情感的洗礼和身份的建构。我们相信，通过了解过去，孩子们能更好地理解现在，更勇敢地拥抱未来。
Although today’s “Root-Seeking Journey” showcase has come to a successful conclusion, the seeds of exploration have been deeply planted in the children’s hearts. This event is not only an accumulation of knowledge, but also a cleansing of emotions and a construction of identity. We believe that by understanding the past, children can better comprehend the present — and embrace the future more bravely.
感谢所有到场的家长们，是你们的支持与分享，让这次探究之旅充满了温度与深度。让我们共同期待，这些小探险家们带着对自身文化的认同与自信，在未来的道路上走得更远、更稳！
Thank you to all the parents who attended. Your support and sharing made this journey of exploration full of warmth and depth. Let us look forward together to these young explorers, who, with a strong sense of identity and confidence in their culture, will go further and more steadily on the road ahead!
