Character Education 品德教育

Fairness and Justice 公平正義

By Chen, Class 503 

One time, my sister and I made a big mess in our room. When Mom came home, my sister ran away, leaving me standing there, not knowing what to do. Mom saw the mess and only scolded me. I felt upset and said to her, "Why are you only yelling at me? My sister played too! That’s not fair!"  Mom sighed and said, "Your sister is still young. You shouldn’t play with her like this. You should stop her and tell her it’s not okay."  I suddenly understood. I realized I had made a silly mistake. In the end, Mom said sorry, and we cleaned up the room together with my sister.

有一次我和妹妹把房間用的很亂，媽媽回家後，妹妹卻跑走了，只留我不知所措的站在原地。媽媽發現後，卻只有罵我，因此我不滿得和媽媽說:「為什麼只有我被罵，明明妹妹也有玩，太不公平了吧!」 ，但媽媽卻

語氣聲長的和我說:「妹妹還小，你不應該和他一起玩，而是要阻止她，和她說不可以這樣。」我恍然大悟，發現我做了個蠢事。最後我媽媽道歉後，就和妹妹一起收拾房間。

Teamwork 團隊合作

One day, two of our teachers were going to another school, so our teacher asked us to make cards for them. First, we had to think about what design we wanted to make. Then, we cut out the designs we came up with. After that, we picked a classmate with neat handwriting to write down our thank-you messages for the teachers. Finally, we put the designs and messages together on a big piece of paper. A few days later, the teachers came to our classroom, and we gave them the card we made. We felt really proud because the teachers were so happy, and we were happy, too!

有天我們有兩位老師要去其他學校，所以老師要我們做卡片，剛開始我們要想要做甚麼圖案，接著把想好的圖案剪下來，再選一位字體工整的同學寫下我對老師的感謝，最後再把做好的圖案和寫好的感想貼到紙板上。幾天後，老師來到我們班教室，我們把做好的卡片送給老師，那時很有成就感，因為我們把做好的東西送給老師，她很開心，我們也很開心。

Appreciation/Gratitude 欣賞感恩

Chang Wei noticed that his classmate, Wang Fang, always helped others quietly but was never noticed. So, he shared Wang Fang's good deeds in their class group and encouraged everyone to learn from her. Everyone began to thank Wang Fang, and the class became more friendly. This story shows that appreciating and being grateful for others' good qualities can create harmony and unity. Let's all be like Chang Wei and spread the good qualities we see in others.

張偉發現同學王芳總是默默幫助別人，卻不被注意。於是，她在班級群裡分享了王芳的善行，鼓勵大家向他學習。大家開始感謝王芳，班級氛圍也變得更和諧。這個故事告訴我們，欣賞和感恩他人的優點能促進和諧與團結。讓我們都成為那個樂於看見並傳播他人優點的人。

Being Humble and Inclusive 謙遜包容

Yao Yirong: Hi everyone, let's make our class more fun. Any ideas?

Zeng Yurou: Let's do crafts together. It's fun.

Yao Yirong: Great idea! What do you think?

Zhou Keqing: I like crafts too, but let's also play games during breaks. 

Chen Yongquan: I agree! Games are fun.

Yao Yirong: Good ideas! Let's do crafts and games each week.

Zeng Yurou: Yes, everyone will enjoy that.

Zhou Keqing: I'll design the games. Yurou can get the craft materials.

Chen Yongquan: I'll decorate the classroom.

Yao Yirong: I'll organize the schedule.

The four students smiled and started working together. They listened to each other and made a fun class plan. 

姚宜礽：大家好，讓我們的課堂變得更有趣。有任何想法嗎？

曾妤煣：我們一起做手工吧。好有趣。

Honesty and Integrity 誠實信用

Lin: Do you know what honesty means?

Yang: It means telling the truth and keeping promises.

Liao: Like today, I came to do homework because I promised.

Lin: If you didn’t come, we might not trust you next time.

Yang: Right. I promised to bring books, and I did.

Liao: We should be honest and keep promises.

Lin: And tell others if we can’t do something.

Yang: Being honest helps us make friends.

Liao: Let’s be honest and trustworthy!

Lin and Yang: Sure!

(They high-five and leave the playground,

smiling.)

林育呈：你們知道什麼是誠實信用嗎？

楊心妤：就是講真話、守信用

廖廷臻：就像今天一樣，我是因為答應了才來寫作業的。

林育呈：如果你不來，下次我們可能就不相信你了。

楊心妤：對。我上次答應帶書，我做到了。

廖廷臻：：我們應該誠實守信。

林育呈：是的，如果我們做不到的事就告訴別人。

楊心妤：誠實可以交到朋友。

廖廷臻：我們要誠實守信！

林育呈、楊心妤：當然可以！

（他們擊掌致意，微笑著離開操場。）
