在东华文泽学校（TWIS），万圣节并非全然与恐怖惊悚的诡异氛围划等号。相反，它更像是一个奇妙世界——虚构人物从书中跃出，在校园空间里欢聚一堂。作为一年一度最让人期待的活动之一，书中人物节日赋予平日专注于阅读的儿童和成人一次与众不同的机会，身着盛装，化身为自身所热爱与着迷的书中英雄，并有机会向这些英雄致敬。

Halloween at Tungwah Wenzel International School is not just about creating a spooky ambiance; rather, it"s more like a wonderland where fictional characters jump off the pages of the books to interact with each other. As an annually anticipated event, Book Character Day provides both children and adults the opportunity to pay tribute to the heroes and heroines of books read in class or during leisure time by dressing up as the characters they find fascinating, interesting and intriguing. Let the festivities begin!

书中人物自我介绍

Introduce Ourselves

“我是来自《Happily Ever After》的白雪公主。”

“我是来自《Splat the Cat》的Splat。”

“我是来自《还珠格格》的小燕子。”

"I am Snow White from the book Happily Ever After."

"I am Splat from the book Splat the Cat."

"I am Xiaoyanzi from My Fair Princess."

……

我们用一种充满趣味性的方式来介绍每个人所扮演的书中人物，并以此拉开这一节日的序幕。从倍受喜爱的童话故事到最前沿的科幻文学，哪一位书中人物是你最喜欢的？

So who are your favorite literary characters? Students took turns introducing themselves to mom and dad in the audience. There are characters from all sorts of genres, from our favorite fairy tale classics to the most recent science fiction literature.

TWIS成功地将梦想变为现实。在介绍会上，我们见到了《哈利波特》霍格沃茨魔法学院的同伴，倾听了来自独角兽们分享的奇幻故事，也目睹了充满活力的超级马里奥体验“全新”的游戏……

The TWIS community has successfully brought the dream to life! We are meeting fellows from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Harry Potter,listening to the magical tales shared by Unicorns, as well as witnessing vibrant and active Super Mario experiencing the "new" games...!

书中人物巡游

Book Character Parade

在完成自我介绍后，我们可以在哪里与整个社区的书中人物相遇呢？答案是……在巡游中！身着华丽服饰的众多角色在教室外的庭园里相遇，他们不仅展示了当天的服装，还骄傲地向整个社区展现他们所喜爱的书目！

After the self-introduction session, it"s time to gather outside the auditorium. Proudly displaying the books associated with their costume, students circled around twice before the next exciting event.

奇妙艺术之门

The Fantastic Artworks

巡游结束后，“书中人物”会前往何处？他们会回到由自己创作的“奇幻世界”。我们可以看到，在PYP小学部，每一间教室的大门都被贴上栩栩如生的画作。事实上，这是学生在艺术课上与艺术教师共同完成的作品。

Where do "Book Characters" go after the parade? They return to the "fantasy world" created by themselves.As we can see, each classroom door at PYP is embellished with vivid artwork.In actuality, they were produced by PYP students in art classin collaboration with their teachers.

以二年级为例，学生曾一起阅读过一本名为《理解与关爱（Understand and Care）》的书，他们在课上讨论了如何培养自己的同理心，如何通过倾听和尊重他人的感受来表达自己的关爱之心。受此启蒙，以此书内容为主题，学生在两周内完成了这些贴在教室大门上的作品。

In PYP 2, for instance,students read a book together called Understand and Care,in which they discussed how to develop their empathy by listening to and respecting the feelings of others.Inspired by this, the students decided to use the book as a theme to create a piece of artwork on their classroom door!

不给糖就捣蛋

Treat or Trick?

那么，“艺术之门”的背后是什么呢？是给我们学生准备了丰富糖果的家长。按照传统，是时候进入“不给糖就捣蛋”的游戏环节了！

And who do we find behind those doors? Mom and dad are loaded with sweets. Time to trick or treat!

开卷有益。一直以来，TWIS致力于为读者创造一个理想化的阅读环境。在书中人物巡游活动之前，我们落实了PYP阅读竞赛项目，也举办了Obido书展——与合作方共同呈现了丰富多彩的文学世界。一本好书可以造就卓越的思想家和沟通者的诞生，怀着这样的愿景，我们在此提供一份儿童英文绘本阅读书单供您参考，希望阅读能为学生带来更多的启蒙！

Reading enriches the mind. As always, TWIS is dedicated to creating a community of readers. Prior to the Book Character Parade, PYP launched its Race to Reading program, and Obido Book Fair displayed brought in a wonderful collection of originally printed books. As good books create good thinkers and communicators, we also present a reference booklist of English picture books for students to enjoy.
