Chinese Culture and Club
课程介绍
Hello everyone! Our names are Jude and Allan, and we will be the teachers of the Bohua Debate Club. We are very excited to run the Bohua Debate Club, and hope you will join us to learn more about debate. We will be rising sophomores at Fairview High School in the 2024 fall semester, and have some experience in the high school debate environment.
The main reason we are running this class is to help younger students get exposure to high school debate. For clarification, this class will be taught in complete English, and not in Chinese. We have both participated in the past Bohua Debate Classes and found that these classes effectively gave us a “head-start” in our high school debate careers. Due to this, we hope that we are able to provide the same sort of advantage that we were given, driving our decision to reinstate the class.
Throughout the semester, we will start by going over the basics of all high school debate, and then dive into detail about Policy Debate, our main event. Regardless, students should gain insight on all debate events. We will mainly try to improve the students’ public speaking abilities as well as logical analysis and formation of arguments.
大家好！我们的名字是Jude和Allan， 下学期在Fairview高中学校上十年级。我们非常希望能在博华开辩论的课外活动。我们已经有不少的辩论经验，想跟小一点的孩子们讲一讲高中辩论是什么样的。这样，到时候他们真的想在高中做辩论赛，已经对辩论更熟悉。因为高中辩论是用英语进行的，我们会用英语教课。我们主要讲Policy辩论，但也会简单的讲到辩论比赛。我们希望学生们上完一学期后，学生们的逻辑分析和演讲能力能大大的进步。

Chinese culture seminar series (文化课系列讲座). New! Details will be released soon (新! 主讲人名单和主题尽快公布)
博华校委合力邀请了中国文化领域当地华人的领军人物和中国民族文化的爱好者们，多角度、全方位地来呈现博大精深的中华文化元素！
This class will be free (本课程免费，无需注册！)，稍后我们会分享这些系列讲座的主讲人！欢欢迎所有学生家长来参加和体验这学期的文化盛宴!
开展文化课的目的是让孩子们把课文中学到的文字知识与现实生活联系起来，从而增深理解中国文化、增强中文课学习的兴趣。我们希望孩子不要等到AP考试的最后一年才强化文化知识与文化演讲，并且早点接触会让他们更能在潜移默化中循序渐进地感受中国文化的魅力与博大精深。
*低年的孩子：培养中文学习兴趣，坚持中文学习。----愚公移山。
*高年级孩子：分散积累文化学习，为AP文化演讲做准备----细水长流。
因为通过上次家长会，以及跟一些家长的私下交流，了解到有一部分家长和学生对中国文化非常感兴趣，这其中包括已从博华毕业的高中生。做为ABC，尽管他们已经从博华毕业，但他（她）们更想深入了解咱们中国文化。
由于文化主题深远庞大，由单个老师来授课的传统模式不太可行，我们打算尝试分成不的板块来讲授。可能的主题：中国民族服装、美食、书法、古建筑、舞蹈、音乐（乐器）、棋牌、地理、历史、百家姓、简单古文、四大发明、唐诗，宋词，小说，名著，等等等， 这些只是抛砖引玉；Anything related to Chinese culture, you name it。
每个板块，可能1-2节课时长，我们能找到多少人来做，就做几个部分，一学期最多14节课，能做几节课就做几节课; 如果做不完，下学期可以继续循环做。
Class Introduction
葫芦丝是一种中国民族乐器，简单易学，携带方便，可以随时随地进行练习和演奏。在课程教学中，学生会学习基本的识谱和演奏技巧，老师会以分组和个人指导的课堂设置，让孩子们在轻松愉快的教学方式中演奏简单，旋律优美的曲目并不断提高。希望这门课能让您发掘出孩子的音乐才能并激发孩子们学习音乐的内在动力，从而达到自主学习与练习的目的。无论您的孩子有无音乐学习背景，我们都希望他们能在这门课的学习过程中体会到中国民乐的魅力，从而真正爱上音乐。因为只有内心的热爱，才能使音乐学习变得美妙而长久。葫芦丝老少皆宜，任何学龄段都可以学习。并且做为木管乐器(WOODWIND)的一种，葫芦丝的学习将为您的孩子今后进入中学管乐队打下一个演奏吹奏乐的基础。
鲁凡石 (Jimmy) 是FAIRVIEW中学高三学生,有十几年的乐器学习和演奏经验，初中三年一直是学校管乐队和爵士乐队 (BAND, JAZZ BAND) 的主吹手并在爵士乐队的毕业汇演中担任最后曲目的唯一独奏(SOLO)。高中阶段将继续在校行进乐队 (MARCHING BAND) 进行为期四年的学习和演奏。长城中文学校管弦乐器演奏家冯咪咪老师是Jimmy的推荐人，茉莉花舞蹈学院的韩莉莉老师也推荐他和她们团队一起参加演出。
2022年秋季开班以来，葫芦丝班的小朋友代表华人参加演出大概20余次，他们精彩的演奏受到了大家的欢迎！点击以下链接可以了解详细的课程以及老师介绍。https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vS9A0j9Pu8ixTg-w2-AK725aWu3-wtfrxA_pSPPQJP_ePV16XmnYDxlc5tM-RreCBs3l0i8g-4rTBRA/pub
Class Introduction
Shaolin Hung Mei Kung Fu offers a comprehensive system of traditional martial practices intended to cultivate the defense skills, health, character and spiritual development of its students. As when studying any discipline based art such as a musical instrument, painting, another sport and so on, students must first learn the basic techniques. For example, a student of violin must learn how to finger the strings and use the bow before learning how to play a complete song.
New students of Shaolin Hung Mei Kung Fu will first be taught how to execute basic techniques, the most important of which are stances such as Zuò Mă (坐馬), Qián Mă (前馬), and others. In addition, these students will be taught how to properly execute punching, kicking, blocking and more in isolation as well as in combinations. Later in the semester, students will put these techniques together in longer sequences or combinations.
Returning students - those who have already participated in the Bohua Kung Fu class and have been shown the basic methods - will continue to build upon what they have been taught in past semesters and be instructed in not only more complex sequences but paired exercises. Learning paired exercises helps members develop a deeper understanding of the “martial intention” of each technique.
Most importantly, we hope to help our students develop what we refer to as “martial spirit” – the spirit of confidence without arrogance, a spirit which they can apply to every other aspect of their lives. We can only achieve these goals with your help. As in any study of any kind, developing new skills requires practice. We will only see the students for about 55 minutes once per week for a few weeks before a break… and then for another few weeks before yet another break and so on. With your help, encouraging more consistent practice, we will have a much greater chance of achieving our goals.
The Bohua Kung Fu class is open to all willing students from age 8 and up and including middle and high schoolers as well as adults/parents. For additional information concerning Shaolin Hung Mei Kung Fu, please see www.shaolinhungmei.org.

说说我个人的一点经历 并不存在喜不喜欢的问题 羽毛球是个趣味性和对抗性极强的运动（在奥运项目里面单位时间的体能消耗仅次于拳击）不喜欢往往是因为没有启蒙没有入门 一旦入门就相当于打开了魔盒 你走在路上 上个洗手间看到镜子 看到一块平地 甚至躺在床上 都会忍不住去练习动作或练习步法 这个运动就是具备这样的魔力 但是非常可惜 很多人都不知道 更别说体会到以技术动作去打击和欺骗对手的乐趣 以战术手段去寻找对手的弱点、放大自己的优势的历练...
我的教学 不仅仅是技术性教学 会有很多的鼓励和称赞（因为教学的时候往往十次击球可能只有一两次是合格的 那么这一两次成功与合格的击球 我会大声为孩子叫好 并让他们努力记住这种最好的感觉）让孩子们在比较有技术难度的学习中寻找自信 寻找灵感 寻找自觉 寻找提升...
来吧，不要犹豫，不要想着浅尝辄止，前方有一座宝库，在等待你的孩子去发掘，欢迎加入！
