老师留言： 我们四年级的学生最近正在自发组织做一件非常有意义的事情。他们号召全校的小朋友，一起来把家里多余的铅笔，橡皮，小文具，废旧的杂志等拿出来捐给学校。让我们从小学会珍惜地球的资源,保护环境,关爱陪我们成长的学校。 我们的学校在开学初就为学生准备了充足的学习用品，方便他们做作业，画画，做手工。因为现在物质生活实在太丰富了，有些孩子已经不懂得节约。我们经常发现地上有半截的铅笔没人捡被踩了，橡皮被抠的碎碎的不能再用了。我们学校四年级的TA小老师在每天帮他们削铅笔准备文具的时候发现这个浪费的现象，他就写个张纸条贴在教室的墙上。结果在班里引起了极大的反响，很多小朋友真从家里把扔来扔去的半截铅笔，半块橡皮都找来了，我们班上的公用文具盒一下子就满了。学生们意识到铅笔是树做成的，省一支铅笔就是在帮助保护一棵树。这时我们班的刘加宜和陈珮明两位同学想做更大的poster，让更多的人知道这件事，来参与这件事。她们的行为得到了校长的支持，全班同学都非常乐于一起来做这件有意义又有趣的事，大家一起准备poster一起准备演讲，要让学校的其它小朋友一起来从最小的事做起，做一个有责任心，有爱心的人。 我们老师看到这些学生的成长非常的欣慰，在这儿也希望得到你们家长的理解和支持。让我们共同努力，把孩子培养成一个真正对社会有价值的人。 学生留言： Bill- 我们要帮助地球。我们的学校好玩，我们学中文，英文，数学, 我们也学环保。 许立平：启明中文学校是很好的学校，如果可以捐一些你们不用的东西，对我们的学校有好处，对我们地球更有好处。 刘亦舒：帮助地球是很重要的，当你捐不用的铅笔时候，你会对地球有好处。这对于我们启明中文学校的学生很有帮助。 威廉：我们的全校学生来帮助地球，我们捐铅笔，减少被砍的树木。 张嘉琪：Our school is fun and our program is meaningful and it saves trees. Elaine: You should come to our school. 刘加宜：启明是个好的学校，请捐更多不用的铅笔给学校。 Isabella: I like enlighten because it helps save trees. Katie: 我们中文学校所有的学生想要一个漂亮的地球。 Asha: I like enlighten because the students are nice. And you should donate pencils help the earth. Kevin: Enlighten is a

Our students did a great job at the Chinese Words Contest on Oct. 30th!

Surely, they were very excited to have a contest and loved sharing it with their parents. Thank you to everyone who came out and joined us!
