Middle School Chinese Department: Youth with You

April 29, 2021

George Sang once said that teenagers never complain about their colorful youth. These beautiful years are precious to them, even if they bring all kinds of storms. Everyone will experience adolescencedifferentlybut it is almost always both wonderful and confusing. This hopeful spring, the seventh-grade Chinese group, together with the science group, will launch a one-month special activity entitled“Youth with you—mybloomingyears”to solve the mystery of youth with the students.

There are many ways to record our youth, and writing is one of them. It can get us through the mists of life that cause us to lose our way by helping to make sense of the unfamiliar. The Chinese group will provide students with the opportunity to express and record their youth from multiple perspectives, including memories of the past and the self-positioning of the present and the future. In addition to the perceptual approach, the science group will also open up a rational way for us to understand the essence of adolescence from another side through scientific language and knowledge so that students can face this period more calmly.

The purpose of this activity is to empower students to better understand the theme of “Youth.” Students will attempt to reach reconciliation with “another self” from the perceptual and rational levels through writing about and exploring interesting scientific knowledge. The above content is gathered in the “Youth with you” manual and distributed to students. Students may complete it step by step according to the schedule, and finally summarize it into their own “Youth Record Book.” We are all looking forward to the students’ imaginative writing and scientific exploration!
