優秀的語言能力離不開扎實的語文素養，特別是母語素養。聯合國教科文組織也曾強調，作為21世紀人才的基本素養，“第一是母語能力，第二是外語能力，第三是信息能力”。研究表明，“母語教育是提供優質教育和實現基本教育需要的先決條件”；“當第一語言有堅實基礎時，第二語言的良好說寫技巧就更容易形成“（E.Miler）。

在博觀，由學科教學走向學科教育是我們進行學生培養的終極目標。作為學校近九成的家庭及學生在社會生活、求學及工作中所使用的第一語言，面對傳統國際化學校中存在的對中文母語教學重視不足的行業現狀，自建校以來，如何在國際化學校中開展行之有效的中文教育教學是博觀中文教研改革的重點。

相較于傳統的國際化學校概念中的漢語學習，立足中文教育教學的廣闊視野，博觀中文教育團隊吸納了眾多有著豐富的國際化學習及教學經驗的雙語中文教師，經過多年的建設發展已經以形成了一套清晰的、堅實可靠的教學方案。其中，以語文、道法、歷史、地理等以中國國家課程標準為綱領，以中文母語學習為核心、兼顧以中文為第二語言的學習需求，輔以中文為學習媒介的多學科教育教學的沉浸式中文學習項目更是成為了我校中文教育的新名片。

此外，各課程教師始終致力于促進學生綜合素養的形成，充分利用學校各項資源，有機結合學校育人目標，落實學生中文學科培養核心要求，以學科教學為主要陣地，以中國國家課程教材作為主要的基礎達標教學資源“1”，以“全語文”作為教育教學延伸的“X”，聚焦學生學習興趣、學習習慣、學習方式和學習內容等領域，兼顧雙語學習支持需求，借助常態教學，中文選修課程（CCA及社團）、學科競賽、中文周等各類中文學習活動，逐步發展學生以中文為目的的語言實踐及應用能力，提升學生學習興趣、思維品質及其他綜合素養，從而致力于實現培養以BMH美德和價值觀等為鮮明特色，符合社會、國家及時代發展所期待的優秀公民。

在博觀，我們深切地意識到孩子的每一次成長都凝聚了家長和老師們共同的期望，而和諧的家校溝通更是構筑孩子成長最有力的支持之一。因此，我們殷切地期待能夠與每一個家庭建立更多的聯系，共同探討孩子的成長與發展。為了滿足所有關心孩子教育需求的人士，在今年的4月到6月，博觀中文教學團隊也將組織4場家校聯誼咖啡晨會，聚焦家校共育，我們將圍繞家長們感興趣的學生課堂觀摩、家庭育兒、政策法規解讀、中文實用學習策略、中學人文學科建設等話題，開展專題的家長工作坊，共建中西育人互通橋梁。

第一場文科組的咖啡晨會已經于4月7日圓滿結束，家長們真實地參與到學生的課堂之中，在學校后花園了解每一株植物的中文名稱，體味文言文的趣味，感受漢字的美妙。

我校督學張春暉教授還為參與的家長們開展了一場關于“家庭教育”的講座。張教授從《家庭教育促進法》延展開來，分享她多年來她作為一名教育者、一名家長對家庭教育的思考。講座現場家長們也紛紛表達自己的觀點與想法，與張教授積極溝通如何進行更好的家庭教育。

我們更加誠摯地邀請對教育有想法、有思考的您能夠成為家長工作坊的演講嘉賓，與我們展開面對面的交流，和我們一起共建學習型社區，共筑孩子發展之路。

下一場咖啡晨會于4月21日舉行，家長們可以加入3、4年級的中文課堂進行觀摩，歡迎幼兒園、中小學的家長們前來體驗。如需了解更多的家校共育詳情，歡迎在下方的海報中掃碼登記您的個人信息，我們期待在家長工作坊中與您見面。

UNESCO has stressed that the basic qualities that are essential for human beings in the 21st century are " first, the ability to speak the mother tongue, second, the ability to speak a foreign language and third, the ability to communicate".

And as E. Miler says "Good speaking and writing skills in a second language are more easily developed when there is a solid foundation in the first language".

As Chinese is the first language spoken by nearly 90% of our students and families in their social, academic and professional lives, the BMH Chinese team has always focused on how to provide effective Chinese language education in our schools.

The BMH subjects of Chinese, Morality, History and Geography are based on the Chinese National Curriculum standards.The team of bilingual Chinese teachers with extensive international learning and teaching experience has developed a clear, solid and reliable teaching programme over the years.

The Chinese National Curriculum textbooks are used as the main teaching resources, focusing on areas such as students" learning interests, learning habits, learning methods and learning content, taking into account the need for bilingual learning support.

Through regular teaching, Chinese CCA and club, competitions, Chinese Immersion Week and other Chinese learning activities, students will gradually develop their language skills, and enhance their interest in learning and comprehensive skills.

We are keenly aware that every child"s growth is a joint effort between parents and teachers, and that harmonious home-school communication is one of the most powerful supports. Therefore, we are eager to establish more contact with each family to discuss the growth and development of their children.

From April to June this year, the Liberal Arts team will organise four coffee mornings focusing on home-school co-education. We will conduct thematic parent workshops on topics such as student lesson tour, family parenting, policy, Chinese learning strategy.

The first Coffee Morning for the Liberal Arts team was successfully held on 7 April. Parents were able to participate in the students" lessons in a real way, learning the Chinese names of each plant in the rear garden of the school, experiencing the fun of the literature and Chinese characters.

Our Deputy Headmaster, Professor Zhang Chunhui, also gave a talk on "Family Education" to the participating parents. Professor Zhang shared her thoughts on family education as an educator and parent over the years. Parents also expressed their own views and ideas on how to better educate their families with Professor Zhang.

We would like to invite you to be a guest speaker at our parent workshops, to meet with us face to face, to build a learning community and to build your child"s development.

The next coffee morning will be held on 21 April for Year 3 and 4 families, and parents are welcome to come and experience it.
