从古老的传统到现代的创造，从动人的故事到手工的奇妙体验，LRC亚洲嘉年华文化月充满了新奇与欢乐。孩子们通过动手、倾听、观察、思考，不仅收获了满满的乐趣，更在不知不觉间与亚洲文化产生了深刻的连接。

对于新加入学校的家长来说，可能会好奇LRC是什么？LRC（Learning Resource Center）是学校的学习资源中心，也是孩子们最爱的“图书馆+”空间。这里不仅有丰富的藏书、安静的阅读环境，更是孩子们体验创意、探索文化、与世界对话的重要场所。从精选故事到沉浸式的文化体验，每一场活动，都是一次独特的探索，让我们一起来回顾LRC亚洲嘉年华文化月孩子们精彩的表现和满载而归的收获吧！

From ancient traditions to modern creativity, from captivating stories to hands-on art activities, the LRC’s Asian Carnival Cultural Month was a journey filled with wonder and joy. Through crafting, storytelling, observing, and reflecting, the students not only had fun but also developed a meaningful connection with the rich and diverse cultures of Asia.

For families who are new to our school, you might be curious about what the LRC is. The LRC (Learning Resource Center) is more than just a library—it’s a dynamic “library+” space where students can explore creativity, discover new cultures, and engage with the world. Beyond its extensive book collection and quiet reading areas, the LRC hosts immersive activities that bring learning to life.

Each activity in the Asian Intercontinental Carnival was a unique exploration, sparking curiosity and creativity while fostering a love for learning. Let’s take a look back at the exciting moments and wonderful memories the students created during this month-long celebration!

谁说只有T台才有高定？孩子们的创意设计一点也不输专业水准！从领口花纹到裙摆颜色，每一个细节都充满想象力。听着孩子们认真讨论“衣裳配色要不要更亮一点”，仿佛能看到古人漫步庭院的身影。最暖心的是，有孩子特意设计了一套“家庭装”，他说：“我想让爸爸妈妈和我一起穿。” 真是可爱又贴心！

风铃声叮咚，满载童趣和用心。制作过程中，孩子们小心翼翼地编织竹条，每当铃铛轻启，都会引来一阵欢呼：“你风铃的声音最好听！” 手工课堂成了孩子们互相夸赞的“快乐工坊”。

在铺展开的宣纸上，孩子们握起书法笔，感受柔软笔锋触碰纸面的奇妙体验。临摹“和”、“美”、“礼”这些汉字时，他们写得格外认真。虽然有些笔画略显稚嫩，但他们骄傲地举起作品说：“看，我写的和字多漂亮！”

精美的京剧服饰展示依然吸引了孩子们的目光。“老师，这上面刺绣的龙是不是代表力量？”“这个帽子好像花仙子的！” 孩子们的奇思妙想让戏服不再只是静静地摆放，而是成了文化探讨的小课堂。

The intricate costumes on display captivated the students’ attention. “Teacher, does the dragon embroidery mean strength?” “This hat looks like something a flower fairy would wear!” Their curious observations transformed the display into a lively cultural discussion.

This week, the young learners stepped into the world of traditional arts through paper and stickers, uncovering the charm of Asian crafts!

千纸鹤是日本传统折纸中的经典之一，代表好运与祝福。从一张简单的纸，到一只精致的千纸鹤，孩子们的小手仿佛有了魔法。每只鹤都承载着一个愿望，有的希望考试100分，有的希望妈妈每天开心。孩子们笑着说：“这么漂亮的鹤，肯定能飞到天上去！”

Origami cranes are a timeless symbol of good luck and blessings in Japan. Starting with a simple sheet of paper, the students folded delicate cranes, their nimble fingers working like magic. Each crane carried a wish—some for a perfect test score, others for a happy mom. “These cranes are so pretty, they could fly to the sky!” one learner giggled.

海娜（Henna）是一种古老的印度传统艺术，在重要的庆典仪式中，人们涂上精美的海娜图案象征吉祥与幸福。虽然因为午间时间有限，不能画出复杂的海娜图案，但准备的海娜风格贴纸一样让孩子们爱不释手。每个人都在挑选自己最喜欢的图案，有孩子贴了一整只手说：“我的手变成了印度公主的手！” 还有孩子互相比较贴纸的设计，“你的花好漂亮，我换一个羽毛和你对换好不好？” 精美的贴纸让孩子们感受到海娜艺术的独特魅力。

Henna, a traditional Indian art form, symbolizes celebration and happiness. Though time constraints prevented intricate henna designs, the prepared stickers were a big hit. Each student chose their favourite design, and one even covered their entire hand, exclaiming, “Look! My hand is like an Indian princess’!” Another excitedly offered a trade, “Your flower sticker is so pretty, can I swap it for my feather?” These beautiful stickers gave the learners a delightful taste of henna’s artistic charm.

The week’s highlight was an enchanting storytelling session featuring handpicked Asian picture books, brought to life by our dedicated parent volunteers. From daring lions to wise cats and heartfelt dinosaurs, each story resonated deeply with the learners.

这些绘本不仅带来了勇敢、爱与自由的智慧启迪，也让孩子们体会到阅读的美好。感谢樱桃妈妈、淇淇妈妈和可艾多妈妈，是你们的热情与用心，让故事散发了更大的魅力。LRC希望通过每一本绘本，让孩子们感受到文化的温度与思想的力量。期待下次，我们再一起走进故事的世界来一场心灵的相遇！

These stories didn’t just teach lessons of bravery, love, and freedom - they also highlighted the beauty of reading. A heartfelt thank you to Yintao Mama, Qiqi Mama, and Keaiduo Mama for bringing these stories to life and making the magic of books truly unforgettable.

孩子们手拿提示卡，穿梭在“知识的海洋”中，寻找关于亚洲文化的小线索。“原来湄公河被称为亚洲多瑙河！这个线索藏得真好！” 笑声、欢呼声不绝于耳。

Armed with clue cards, the students raced through a “sea of knowledge,” discovering little gems about Asian culture. “Did you know the Mekong River is called the Danube of Asia? This clue was so well-hidden!” Their laughter and cheers filled the air as they competed to uncover the answers.

六年级A班的 LRC志愿者杨果儿Emma Yang 同学，利用课间时光亲手绘制了一棵美丽的樱花树，为校园增添了一份别样的温暖。在“樱花树”下，孩子们写下对家人和朋友的感恩和心愿。小小的卡片上写满了童真的话语：“感谢妈妈陪我训练”，“希望大家永远开心”，“祝我们班拿下Super Class”。一个简单的活动，拉近了孩子们和父母、同伴、老师之间的距离。

Emma Yang, a sixth-grade LRC volunteer, crafted a beautiful cherry blossom tree during recess, adding a warm touch to the campus. Beneath this tree, the learners wrote notes of gratitude and wishes for family and friends. “Thank you, mom, for practicing with me.” “I hope everyone stays happy.” “Let’s win Super Class!” These heartfelt messages brought everyone closer together, celebrating love and connection.

每天的故事时间，让孩子们沉浸在亚洲各国的故事中。从中国丹顶鹤的故事到印度的民间故事，孩子们的眼睛里写满了惊叹，“每个国家的故事都那么有趣！”

Each time, the students watched a curated selection of Asian stories, from tales of Chinese, red-crowned cranes to Indian folk legends. “Wow, every country has such cool stories!” they exclaimed, their eyes wide with amazement. These videos opened windows to other worlds, sparking curiosity and expanding their horizons.

LRC亚洲嘉年华文化之旅圆满结束，但亚洲的多彩世界依然在孩子们心中流转。他们在活动中感受到文化的温度，在欢声笑语中建立起对传统的敬意和对世界的好奇心。

特别感谢家长志愿者的倾情加入，以及每一位老师和孩子的热情参与！你们让这次LRC亚洲嘉年华活动变得充满生命力与意义。

孩子们带着对文化的思考、对家的感恩和对未来的期待，迈向了更广阔的天地。期待下次的文化之旅，我们一起再出发，去发现更多世界的美好！
