At HDBJ, we pay attention to the all-round personalized development of children. In terms of English education, the primary learning purpose is to improve students’ English literacy proficiency, cultivate solid English thinking patterns, and build language application skills. For children from different grades with different language proficiency levels, how does HD achieve this teaching goal?
HD Primary’s English course follows a themed interdisciplinary approach, whereby five overarching themes provide broad guidance for the learning across the year. Within each of these themes, English objectives, which are based on the UK National Curriculum, are taught through genre studies. This ‘spiral-up’ process means that as key concepts are repeated throughout the curriculum, the depth and breadth of learning, and its application, will increase in complexity as the students grow within the school.
In Grades 3, 4 and 5, students are assessed at three points in the year, and are placed in an English learning group which best matches the learning targets they need to be working on.
We had a special conversation with the English coordinators: Ms Le- Zelle, G3 and 4 coordinator and Mr Sockwell, G5 coordinator. They took the “Let"s Celebrate” learning theme as an example to share with us the meaning and results of streaming.
Effective lesson preparation，Efficient classroom，Flexiblility to meet learning needs of different streams.
The students in Grades 3, 4 and 5 are placed in smaller English groups, within their grade. In Grade 5, there are six English groups and in Grade 3 and 4, there are five English groups respectively. Since the learning progress in the different groups varies, the English teachers are required to customize personalized teaching methods and teaching objectives according to the learning targets of the different groups.
Mr Sockwell explained: Under the recently concluded “Let’s Celebrate” theme, the teachers led the G5 children to explore and learn about festivals and celebrations in different countries, through the genre of narratives. The outcome of the unit would be an independently written story, using knowledge and applying English skills. The theme is very interesting. It is about the ancient Chinese monster "Nian" returning to the human village again. Is it for revenge? Or for peaceful coexistence with mankind? How do people respond?
The teachers of G5 set specific goals for the different groups. For example, the children in one group can already use noun modifiers proficiently, but they need to work more on the use of conjunctions, and the students in the other group are learning noun clauses, so we must highlight and strengthen this knowledge point in their work. In short, streamed teaching requires teachers to set learning goals for different students in advance, so that they can flexibly adjust according to the students" learning progress in the classroom, and truly teach students according to their aptitude.
Similarly, under the theme of “Let’s Celebrate’, the children of G3 learned how different people around the world celebrate birthdays; the end goal being a birthday-themed non-chronological report. Ms Le-Zelle further explained to us how streamed teaching is implemented in the five different English groups.
English teachers prepare a range of reading materials, of varying levels of difficulty which provides the appropriate scaffolds for all students to engage with, in order for them to succeed. In the lesson, the teacher will adapt according to the needs of the children and the suitability of the task. For students with a relatively good foundation in English, the teacher will, at times, step back to cultivate the children"s ability to think and explore independently; for children who are still laying a solid foundation, the teacher will be more deeply involved in every step of learning, so as to find small mistakes in time and make timely adjustments.
At HDBJ, every English class is unique, which is why we are proud to say that our children can achieve 100% immersion in English learning.
Regular assessments dynamically match the most suitable English teaching for children.
Students’ language skills are assessed at three points during the year. In September, students complete the baseline assessment to be placed in their first streams. They are assessed again in November/ December and for a final time in April/May.
Stream assessments are rigorous and include evaluation in Speaking and Listening, independent reading, independent writing, and grammar application.
Such a high-density assessment system ensures that each child"s learning progress will be seen, so that they can always learn most efficiently in the most suitable group.
The streamed English teaching at HDBJ Primary allows every child to accept new challenges without being overwhelmed by the emotion of fear of difficulties. Under the guidance of our teachers, they can be the little masters of their own learning.

在北京赫德，我們注重孩子們的全方位個性化培養，在英文學習方面，孩子們的首要學習目的是提高英語文學素養，培養扎實的英文思維以及語言運用能力。但是，對于不同年級不同程度的孩子們，赫德是如何將這個教學目標完美實現的呢？
具體到赫德的課程上，赫德小學的英文學習采取大主題跨學科的教學方式，每個學年里，各年級都會進行五大主題的學習，學習的深度和廣度隨年級增高而加深，重要的知識點會在學習過程中反復強化，呈現一個螺旋式上升的過程。
從G3到G5，在每一個年級內部，老師們還會根據孩子們的測評結果，將孩子們分成不同的學習小組，確保可以實時給孩子們匹配最適合他們的學習進度以及學習目標。
下面，我們特別對話了北京赫德小學部年級組長：來自G3的Ms Le-zelle和來自G5的Mr Sockwell，他們以剛剛結束的【Let"s Celebrate慶祝吧】學習主題為例，與我們深入地分享了北京赫德的英語分層教學是如何在孩子們身上展開的。
有效備課 高效課堂
靈活滿足每個孩子學習需求
G5的學科組長Mr Sockwell告訴我們，赫德小學部G3與G4分別有五個不同的英文學習小組，G5的孩子們則被分成了6個不同的小組。由于不同小組孩子們的學習進度各不相同，這要求老師們需要在教研備課階段根據不同小組的學習情況，定制出個性化的教學方式與教學目標。
Mr Sockwell給我們舉例：在剛剛結束的【Let’s Celebrate】主題學習中，老師帶著G5的孩子們一起探究學習了各個國家的節日以及慶祝方式，來學習記敘文相關的知識。主題課程的最后，孩子們需要獨立完成一篇故事作文，主題很有趣，講的是在中國古代的怪獸“年”又再一次回到了人類的村莊，它是為了復仇嗎？還是為了與人類和平共處？人們又要如何應對呢？孩子們需要開動腦筋，將這個故事寫的完整又精彩。
G5的老師們針對這個故事為不同的小組分別制定了詳細的目標：比如，一個小組的孩子們已經可以熟練使用名詞修飾語，但是在連詞的使用上還需要多下功夫，另一個小組的同學們正在學習名詞性從句，那么這次的作業中就要突出強化這一知識點。
簡言之，分層教學要求教師們提前給不同的學生設定力所能及的學習目標，以便可以在課堂上根據學生的學習反饋，靈活地調整進度，真正做到因材施教。

在【Let’s Celebrate】的大主題下，G3的孩子們跟著老師一起學習了生日相關的內容。年級組長Ms Le-zelle進一步給我們解釋了分層教學是如何在不同的小組完美落實的。
現在的G3一共有五個小組，孩子們在學習世界各地與慶祝生日相關的內容，并且最終會完成一份生日主題的non-chronological reports（非時序性報告）
在課堂上，根據不同小組孩子們的學習進度不同，老師們會準備難度不同的閱讀材料，從單詞的難易程度到材料的篇幅長短，都是老師為孩子們量身打造的。
除此之外，在課堂上，教師的參與度也會隨著孩子們的需求靈活變化：對于英語基礎稍好的孩子們，老師會在適當的放手，培養孩子們獨立思考和探究的能力；對于還需夯實基礎的孩子們，老師會更深度地參與到學習的各個環節中，以便及時發現細小的錯誤，適時調整。
在赫德小學部，每一節英語課堂都是獨一無二的，正是因為如此，我們才能自豪地說：我們為每一個不同的孩子都提供了最適合他們的英語教育。

定期測評
為孩子匹配最適合的英文教學
定期測評也是分層教學實施過程中非常重要的一環。
我們每年會在9月、11月/12月、4/5月分別進行三次測評，測評的內容也十分全面，包括口語、聽力、獨立閱讀、獨立寫作和語法應用等。
如此高密度的測評體系保證了每個孩子的學習進度都會被關注，讓孩子們能夠始終在最適合自己的小組進行最高效的學習。
