Characteristics of Tanghu Middle School Foreign Language Experimental School

(1) Take the education of Chinese studies as the starting point, pay attention to the cultivation of good ideological and moral character and behavior habits, and promote students to become adults.

1. Adhere to traditional cultural education such as "benevolence, morality, ambition, loyalty, filial piety, courtesy, Taoism" and "thrift" and classic education of Chinese studies.

The school has specially set up school-based courses such as Classic Collection of Chinese Studies and Reading Confucian Classics, with the four books as the main content, absorbing the traditional textbooks of old primary schools, extracting the essence of "Classics, History, Zi and Collection", and compiling a set of textbooks from primary school to junior high school to senior high school, which fully embodies the spirit of "teaching by writing".

The "six one projects" are set up: 20 minutes of classic reading every day, 20 minutes of classic writing every day, once a week of classic study, once a week of collective reading, once a semester of social practice activities, once a week of teacher-student ceremonies. So far, students have learned social etiquette, family etiquette, school etiquette and so on. The school-based textbook "Our Etiquette" is also under planning. In addition, the school also carried out activities such as reading the Bible salon, reciting a story every day, me and the classic story meeting.

2, combined with the actual development of a variety of educational activities.

(1) Carry out a series of thanksgiving education activities.

With the educational theme of "Thanks to my parents for raising me, thanks to my classmates for helping me, thanks to my teachers for educating me, thanks to my motherland for nurturing me", the school arranged gratitude homework for students, watched the deeds of people who touched China, and carried out social volunteer activities through theme class meetings, open parent-teacher conferences and festivals such as Teachers' Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, so that students could experience the connotation of "gratitude" personally.

(2) Carry out campus social practice activities.

In this way, students' sense of ownership is cultivated, and good civilized habits are formed, so that students can "experience everything, feel everything and learn everything" in practical activities.

(3) Carry out "Love" charity sale, charity performance and garden activities.

Make students deeply experience life, feel the true meaning of dedication, and cultivate students' spirit of unity, friendship and helpfulness.

(4) Implementing the tutorial system of all-staff education to realize the interaction between teachers and students.

In order to make every student feel the care, help and guidance of teachers, the school integrates educational resources and implements the "full tutorial system". In this way, teachers of every subject should be the educational instructors of students, giving ideological guidance, study guidance, life guidance and psychological counseling to each student's study, life, psychology and morality.

(2) Cultivate students' comprehensive quality and promote their harmonious and all-round development.

A variety of platforms have been built outside the pond to cultivate compound talents with high comprehensive quality and outstanding expertise, so that students can be admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University, and they can afford to play chess and calligraphy, creating a model of quality education.

There are 36 extracurricular interest classes attached to the outside of Tang Dynasty, including: scientific and technological activities, dancing, comics, paper-cutting, China chess, Go, Diabolo and tennis.

There are 46 school-based courses in junior high school, such as calligraphy, social observation, cross stitch, broadcast hosting, camera shooting, cooking and planting.

High schools offer school-based courses such as high school English proficiency competition counseling, extracurricular literary activities, speeches, compositions, English corners, model couplets, dubbing, and high school competitions.

The school has carried out solid and effective curriculum reform, skillfully used teachers' educational resources, and comprehensively cultivated students' aesthetic, practical and creative abilities through the opening of the second classroom, and cultivated students' extensive interests and specialties.

(C) scientific and efficient foreign language teaching, to create a bright spot in foreign language teaching

1. Set up "CEA foreign language characteristic class" and fully implement English quality education ("CEA" is the abbreviation of "Basic English Quality Education in China").

2. Choose English textbooks. In Britain, there is a set of well-known reading materials published by Oxford University Press for English majors to learn their mother tongue-Good English, formerly known as Oxford Reading Tree. Tangwai uses 64 graded, simple and original works carefully selected by Beijing Foreign Studies University from Oxford Reading Tree, which are suitable for middle school students in China, and returns to the "accumulation" foundation of language education, so that students can learn English easily, happily and naturally in stories, that is, "integrating language learning into stories".

3. Adopt a brand-new English teaching concept of "language sense reading". Under the leadership of the basic education research group of Beijing Foreign Studies University, I participated in the experimental research on the subject of "English Language Sense Reading". According to the concept of "language sense reading method", English classes can be roughly divided into four types: vocabulary classes, listening and speaking classes, reading classes and practice classes. The basic goal of vocabulary class is to read the self-made short articles that run through all units of vocabulary and phrases, so as to achieve the purpose of "two sessions", that is, to read aloud and understand their meanings. And repeat it by reading aloud. Listening and speaking class is to integrate the listening and speaking parts of paragraphs A and B, and train students' listening and oral expression ability. The practice class is practiced through 30 classic test questions, which are divided into three different levels.

The principle of "language sense reading" in model English is divided into the following six steps: the first is to read aloud repeatedly to achieve the purpose of "two sections". The second is natural spelling, which consolidates related or similar words randomly through the words in the story. Third, word association. Fourth, extract sentences, so that students can extract their favorite sentences from the story and read and recite them repeatedly. Fifth, screen the high-frequency vocabulary in the exam and strengthen the practice repeatedly in the story context. Finally, let the students write a summary. The experimental research on the subject of "English Language Sense Reading" has improved students' oral English, reading and writing abilities as a whole.

4. Carry out various activities of learning and using English. Among the students, English drama performance group, English speech group, English film dubbing group, English TV broadcasting and program hosting group and English handwritten newspaper group have been formed, forming the unique foreign language characteristics of the school. The annual1February is designated as "English Activity Month" and the "English Culture Festival" is held, which builds a platform for all teachers and students to learn English in English, creates a good campus English atmosphere, and greatly stimulates students' enthusiasm for learning English.

5. Hire foreign teachers to teach oral English all the year round, and cooperate with China Education Association for International Exchange and American English Society. Eight one-month "English Summer Camp" and summer English teacher training courses have been held successively.

(D) Highlight mental health education to promote the healthy growth of teachers and students.

In 2005, the school set up a psychology teaching and research group, and on this basis, in 2008, it set up the Mental Health Education Center of Tang Zhong Foreign Language School. At present, there are 6 professional mental health education teachers (including senior psychological counselor 1 teacher and 3 third-level psychological counselors).

In order to grasp the psychological age characteristics of students more accurately, the school mental health education center has taken many measures. Every year, freshmen are collected and compared by means of collective questionnaire survey, establishment of psychological files and analysis of psychological diaries. Through case tracking, class teacher, parents interview, group counseling and other ways to collect and summarize the graduation students; Through special lectures, class psychological contact reports, psychological associations, extracurricular activities, etc., students of other grades are collected for comprehensive research. According to the age characteristics of developmental psychology, students' psychological development can be divided into: "learning adaptation period" for freshmen, "psychological weaning period" for sophomores and "ambition selection period" for juniors; Senior one students are in the period of forming values, senior two students are in the period of emotional conflict, and senior three students are in the period of academic anxiety. Targeted counseling and education are conducted at all stages.

On this basis, the school mental health education center informs schools, grade groups and class teachers in the form of "psychological briefing", "educational briefing" and "meeting minutes" and puts forward targeted coping strategies.

In order to make education more acceptable to students, the school mental health education center has innovated independently and opened up many educational channels.

First of all, take the weekly mental health class as the main position of mental health education. The mental health education center has independently compiled more than 200 lesson plans/kloc-0, independently researched and designed more than 80 series of activities such as "trusting back wrestling", "unlocking Qian Qian solution" and "bombing advantage", determined the characteristics of "activity" and "experience" in mental health classes, and formed a classroom structure of "demand+activity+experience+sublimation", which really conforms to the psychology of middle school students.

Secondly, make professional psychological counseling more detailed. The school has strengthened the construction of hardware facilities and set up a consulting room to create a warm and comfortable environment for visiting students, parents and teachers. In addition, the "duty system", "psychological consultation record system" and "case study meeting system" which are open regularly from Monday to Friday have been formulated in detail. Students' psychological file consultation card, psychological consultation record card and case tracking card are designed respectively to establish psychological files for the whole school and use these files for psychological analysis. Every student consulted was recorded in detail, and individuals with typical psychological disorders were followed or successfully referred, which helped many children get out of the psychological shadow and regain their sunshine and self-confidence.

Finally, use other channels as auxiliary means. The school set up a "column of mental health education" in the campus blackboard newspaper; Campus radio stations have added "Voice of the Mind" columns; A "mental health" section has been added to the school website; There is a "psychological mailbox" hanging at the door of the psychological consultation room; Opened a psychological counseling hotline; Subscribed to a large number of psychological books and materials such as "Psychologist" and "Mental Health Education in Primary and Secondary Schools"; A "psychological association" was established among students; Run a "psychological handwritten newspaper"; Collection and analysis of students' psychological diaries; Opened a psychology column in the school's "Xiao Chun" literary publication; Special activities such as "psychological projection", "psychological assistance for students in disaster areas" and "5.25 I love me" were held by taking advantage of the time of psychology class or the opportunity of social activities practice; In the work of class teachers and team work, each class is required to hold at least two class meetings that meet psychological standards every semester.

For poor students, Tang Wai not only exempted their tuition fees, but also gave them comprehensive care in life and gave them long-term psychological counseling. Especially after the Wenchuan earthquake, the school has received more than 300 students from the disaster area, including some earthquake orphans. For these students, the mental health education center has formulated a detailed counseling program and implemented it step by step to help them get out of their psychological shadows step by step.

In view of some personality defects of the only child, the school has carried out the "five hearts" education in the process of mental health education, that is, improving spiritual quality with self-confidence, promoting empathy and care with love, communicating parent-child relationship with filial piety, shaping ambition with responsibility and honing will quality with courage.

Great achievements have been made in mental health education outside the pond: more than 3,000 special mental health education classes have been given to students, and more than 400,000 words have been compiled by themselves; Establish more than 8,000 psychological files of students; Received more than 800 psychological consultations from students; Conduct more than 20 special lectures; Three school-based textbooks have been compiled, namely, Handbook for Students of Mental Health Education, Handbook for Teachers of Mental Health Education and Art of Family Education. Published more than 20 academic papers; The documentary "Sunshine Girl" filmed by campus TV station according to the real transformation case won the first prize of the Central Audio-visual Education Center. The popularization rate of students' mental health education reached 100%. The school has successively won the honorary titles of "Chengdu Experimental School of Mental Health Education" and "National Characteristic School of Psychological Counseling", and has become the training base for post-disaster students to go abroad for recuperation as determined by the Ministry of Education and the Provincial Department of Education, realizing the extraordinary development of "one step a year and one leap every three years".

(5) Vigorously implement hierarchical teaching, build efficient classrooms, comprehensively improve teaching quality, and promote students' success.

1, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, and promoting by layers.

The school requires teachers to firmly establish the educational concept of "never giving up a student", and adhere to the "five characteristics" teaching idea of "teaching difficulty (elevation) should be different, example design should be gradual, problems should be comprehensive, homework should be targeted, and counseling should be personalized" in teaching, so that top students can be sharp, intermediate students can be ambitious, and students with learning difficulties can catch up, so that every student can learn something.

2. In-depth implementation of efficient classroom teaching reform.

According to the core idea of "let every student develop" in the new curriculum, the "3+ 1" efficient classroom teaching reform was carried out outside Tangwai, starting with changing the behavior of teaching and learning, improving the quality of education and teaching in an all-round way, and achieving another leap in education outside Tangwai.

"3+ 1 curriculum reform" is a teaching reform activity with the premise of ensuring students' subjectivity, the purpose of pursuing effective teaching, the core of "3+ 1" classroom structure, the integration of three cases as the main carrier and the guarantee of standardizing bilateral teaching activities.

For seven years in a row, the undergraduate course and repetition rate of the college entrance examination outside Tangwai are in the forefront of Chengdu, and they have won the top prize in Shuangliu County for many times, and 100% of the experimental classes repeat the first line. Over the years, the average online rate of undergraduates is as high as 78%, and the average online rate of undergraduates is as high as 35%. Excellent teaching quality will be commended by city and county education bureaus every year.

(six) highlight the characteristics of art and physical education, strengthen cooperation and exchanges, adhere to diversified education, broaden the channels for further studies, and promote the multi-channel development of students.

1. The school has established an art education model of "three classes (music, art and calligraphy), two classes (science art class and college entrance examination art training class), a group (Haitang Art Troupe), an activity (extracurricular interest activities) and a base (art student base of key universities)"; A class (physical education class, a sub-class in 1+N mode), two exercises (inter-class exercises and eye exercises) and thirteen teams (men's team, men's team, women's team, track and field team, China chess team, Go team, chess team, checkers team, aerobics team, cheerleading team, sports dance team and so on) were constructed.

The school participated in art exhibitions at all levels, and 383 people won the national competition award, 4 1 1 people won the provincial competition award, 7 13 people won the municipal competition award, and more than 400 people won the county competition award. Eighty-three students majoring in literature and art have obtained the special recruitment qualifications of key domestic universities such as Renmin University of China, Zhejiang University, beijing language and culture university and Beijing Foreign Studies University, as well as the study qualifications of international famous schools such as Nanyang Technological University (full government scholarship), University of Washington, and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

The school participated in various sports competitions, 38 people won the title of national first-class athlete and 235 people won the title of national second-class athlete; 1 10 won the national competition award, 3 10 won the provincial competition award, 480 won the municipal competition award, and 170 won the county competition award. In 2009 and 20 10, the high school aerobics team won the provincial middle school aerobics competition, and the small cheerleading team won the international aerobics competition in Seoul, South Korea in 20 10; Since 2008, more than 1 10 chess teams have won the provincial middle school students' competition prize and won the first place in the 20 10 and 20 1 adult groups of China Chess High School. The men's soccer team won the championship of the city's middle school students' competition for six consecutive years, the provincial middle school students' competition in 2009, the sixth place in the men's soccer team B competition on behalf of Sichuan Province in 2009, and the first and second group championships on behalf of Chengdu in 20 10.

2. Diversification and cooperation in running schools, and expanding new educational methods.

In 2007, the school's international department took the lead in introducing PGA (China-US International High School Curriculum) in Sichuan Province. In 20 10, 100% of all students in the first PGA class of this school were admitted to famous American universities, 80% of them were admitted to the top 100 universities in the United States, and nearly 50% were admitted in 2000 ~ 2000 every year. The average IELTS score of the whole class is 6.3, and an international class in Chengdu got this score for the first time.

The school has successively become the artistic talent training base of China Renmin University, the student source base of Shanghai Jiaotong University and the national defense student source base of Chengdu Military Region. It is a public international student school with full scholarship designated by the Singapore government, a sending and receiving school designated by the AFS international cultural exchange program, and a "Chengdu Exchange Center" school of the US-China Cultural Education Foundation.

The school has sent more than 80 teachers and students abroad for exchange, and receives students from the United States, German, French and other countries every year, living in the same class as China students, which not only improves the teaching level of teachers, but also improves the students' oral English expression ability.

(seven) the implementation of refined management, reflecting the people-oriented characteristics, so that parents can rest assured, so that students are satisfied.

In order to make students feel warm, happy, free and safe in school, Tangwai put forward the concept of "refinement" from the very beginning.

1, refined safety work. Safety is the foundation of all work. As a fully enclosed boarding school outside the hall, we will do our safety work to the extreme. The school employs security guards to patrol around the clock and monitor important places on TV to ensure school safety. In order to avoid the security risks caused by the entry and exit of idle people, the school has formulated a strict guard system. Students must enter the school with a "campus card" and leave the school after being signed by the class teacher. Foreigners who want to enter the school gate must register and make an appointment at the guard.

In order to prevent the teaching corridor and the corridor from being crowded and trampled, the school arranges the floor duty teacher to be on duty every day during class and after school to supervise the students' walking order and ensure their safety.

2. Good education. In order to give students as much care and guidance as possible, so that students can fully feel the warmth and intimacy of home, the system of morning, noon and evening inspections by class teachers, the system of moral education tutorial, the system of learning tutorial and the system of mental health counseling has been formulated outside the pond, so that wherever there are students, there will be the care of parents of teachers outside the pond.

(1) The head teacher checks the students at least three times a day (in the morning, at noon and at night), pays attention to the students' study, life and psychological conditions, solves problems in time when they are found, records them in time and reflects on their work in time.

(2) The focus of moral education counselors' work is to pay attention to students' behavior habits, discipline consciousness, thoughts and feelings, understand students' behavior and their real psychological motives, combine "strictness" with "love" and solve students' problems in time; The focus of the learning tutor is to pay attention to students' learning in all subjects. If there is any situation, he will use the self-study class or spare time for individual counseling.

(3) Full-time psychological teachers in the school set up mental health classes, psychological consultation rooms, psychological consultation hotlines and spiritual communication columns, which created a good environment for students' physical and mental health development.

(4) In order to enrich students' campus life, the school has set up more than 30 related courses for students to choose from, such as home economics (including embroidery and knitting), photography, TV program recording, robot making, web page design, animation, English dubbing of movies, English drama performance, discovery and exploration, advertising design, science and technology essays, art sports and so on. Let students improve their hands-on ability and enhance their sense of cooperation in participation and inquiry. The school has also carried out a variety of activities such as "Campus Culture and Art Festival", "Student Film Festival" and "New Year Concert", so that students can fully appreciate the joy of the festival and the warmth of their families.

(8) Refined management.

(1) Build a home-school contact platform to realize home-school interaction. The school network has a column of "home-school communication", and the "home-school communication" platform provides parents with "home-school contact cards". Parents can log on to the school website online to inquire about students' growth records, test scores, semester comments, leave card records, canteen consumption records, grade announcements, class announcements, messages to parents and other information. Parents can also leave messages to teachers through the platform. We will make every effort to build a three-dimensional education model of family, school and society, form an overall joint force, and improve educational efficiency.

(2) weekend custody. For students who don't leave school during the holidays, the school conducts weekend "trusteeship" with grade groups as units, and full-time teachers are responsible for carrying out various interest activities such as classroom expansion, recreational activities, sports model airplanes, and information networks. Make students' holidays easy, enjoyable and meaningful.

(3) High-standard student apartments and all-round apartment management. The student apartment can accommodate 4400 people, with air conditioning, toilet, telephone, water dispenser, personal cupboard and writing desk. Student apartments are supervised 24 hours a day. Each floor is equipped with two life teachers who are familiar with students' ideological education, proficient in life management and have college education or above. They pay attention to the humanized service for students, take the initiative to care about their lives and diseases, serve and care for students, and promote their self-care, self-reliance and self-discipline ability.

(4)A-level canteen with nutritious catering. The school has an A-class canteen in Sichuan Province, which can accommodate more than 4,000 people at the same time. The facilities are complete, and the meal is completed by credit card. The school employs a senior nutritionist from West China University of Medical Sciences as a consultant to provide nutritional catering for students' meals. At the same time, in order to cultivate students' good habits of thrift, we should reasonably limit students' daily consumption.

(5) It is convenient, fast and effective to use the campus "all-in-one card" management. All the teachers and students in the school are equipped with a card, which can be used for multiple purposes, such as identity confirmation, entering and leaving the school gate, dining in the canteen, book borrowing, etc., which provides convenience for students' study and life.
