Projects

Each project is like an adventure journey. As little detectives, we keep asking questions and, with curiosity and courage, try to solve every challenge.

Every year, the Primary and Middle school departments design a variety of interdisciplinary projects across subjects, covering areas such as life education, sustainable development, visual arts, and artificial intelligence. Learners explore the world in farm fields, classrooms, and outdoor spaces, identifying real-world problems and attempting to answer or solve them.

Fantasy Animals

Disciplines/Subjects: ELA/Visual Arts Key Themes: Animals, Surrealism, Creativity, Hybrid Creatures Learners played Exquisite Corpse to explore surrealism and creativity. They then brainstormed, sketched, and designed their own fantasy animals by combining features from at least three different animals. To prepare for their final artwork, learners participated in a watercolor techniques workshop, practicing wet-on-wet, dry brush, salt texture, and alcohol effects. They applied these techniques to create their fantasy creatures using drawing, watercolor, and ink. As an ELA component, learners wrote aproximately 50-word background stories describing their creatures. Sentence starters, vocabulary prompts, and peer feedback supported their writing. The project concluded with presentations, where learners shared their artwork and stories.

Social Emotional Learning Handbook

Disciplines/Subjects: Social Emotional Learning Key Themes: Self-awareness: my emotions&feelings, Self-awareness: Sex Education This project aims to help students improve their self-awareness, understand their emotions, and master basic sex education knowledge through social-emotional learning classroom instruction. Through a series of interactive activities and reflective exercises, students will learn how to effectively express emotions, build healthy relationships, and maintain a positive mindset when facing challenges. With the theme of sex education, students will recognize the importance of their bodies and learn self-protection. The works generated from interactions and practices will be collected in the "Social Emotional Learning Handbook," documenting their social-emotional learning journey.
