学术英语的学生一直在探索与艺术和博物馆相关得主题，学习以此为导向的词汇培养他们对不同主题的认识。在阅读和理解相关内容的同时，借助纪录片，通过听力和图形提示来提高他们的英语技能，引发热情，激发对世界的洞察力。此外，通过研究雅思写作的分数段描述，学生更好地理解笔试的标准：任务反应、连贯性和凝聚力、词汇资源以及语法范围和其准确性。此外，通过合作编辑，从而实现集体相互学习模式。学生们加强对常见错误的关注，确定以高标准的英文书写质量进行个人书面工作。

Academic English students have been exploring the theme of art and museum with topic-oriented vocabulary to cultivate their awareness of different subjects. With the aid of related documentaries alongside reading comprehension, disciplines enhance their English skills through listening and graphical cues, triggering enthusiasm and stimulating insights about the world. Furthermore, by examining IELTS Writing band descriptors, students better understand the criteria for written exams: task response, coherence and cohesion, lexical resources, and grammatical range and accuracy. In addition, through peer editing, pupils collectively learn from each other by strengthening attentiveness to common mistakes and identifying high-standard qualities to incorporate into individual written work.

与上学期重点置于练习阅读和听力技能不同，本学期我们将重点转向写作和口语技能。学生们每周都会进行听写，练习关键词的含义和拼写。为了让十一年级ESL学生为IGCSE期末考试做好准备，英语组在学校的支持下组织了一次完整的模拟考试，帮助十一年级学生做好全身心的准备。所有的英语教师都参加了考试委员会的培训课程，以便向学生提供关于期末考试的最新、最准确的信息。

在第一学期针对性的听、说、读训练之后，十年级的ESL课程一直专注于写作。学生们通过复习语法结构和使用相关工作表进行练习，巩固了前三个单元的语法。同时，学生们还对前几个单元的单词进行了听写。为了提高学生的听力能力和对语法结构的理解，ESL课程采用了这样的方式：老师阅读短文，学生根据所听到的内容描绘成画，然后全班讨论介词在该段中的作用。

As opposed to the last semester where the focuses were on practicing reading and listening skills, this semester we switch our gears to writing and speaking. Students have been worked on weekly dictation to practice on the meaning and spelling of keywords. In order to prepare Y11 ESL students for the IGCSE final Exam, the English Department in conjunction with the support from the school to organize a full mock exam to help the Y11 students get ready physically and mentally. All the English staff attended the exam board training sessions to deliver the most updated and accurate information about the final exam to students. 

After targeted listening, speaking and reading in the first semester, the Y10 ESL lesson have been focusing on writing. Students have consolidated the grammar in the first three units by reviewing grammatical structure and practicing with relevant worksheets. In the meanwhile, students dictated on the words in the previous units. To improve students' listening ability and their understanding of grammar structure, ESL lessons adopted a way that teacher read a short paragraph, students drew a picture according to what they have heard, followed by class discussion about the role of prepositions in the paragraph.
