此时此刻,在大会上, 礼堂里的每个人都在背诵一年级和二年级学生告诉我们的话:“试一试。. Give it a go. 尝试新事物有助于我们成长!当演讲结束时,学前班的小朋友们走上舞台,带领我们唱了一首《Mrs. 克罗斯比教过他们. The tune is so catchy that I hear students singing the words for days following the assembly: “I can do it; I can do it, 只要我坚持下去. I can do it; I can do it, if I try.”
快进到感恩节假期前的周五早上. 我们又在开会了. 三年级的学生正在舞台上表演他们准备的小品,将玉米的生长方式戏剧化, beans, 而南瓜是相互依赖才能生长的. The students teach us that the “Three Sisters” are planted together because the cornstalks support the beans as they grow; the beans pull nitrogen from the air into the soil; and the large squash leaves shade the soil to keep it cool and moist. 小品结束后, 幼儿园的小朋友上来唱一首关于吃玉米的歌, beans, 和南瓜. 学生们向我们展示如何用美国手语做手势,这样我们就可以边唱边做手势.
