醉里挑灯看剑，梦会吹角连营。八百里分麾下炙，五十弦翻塞外声。沙场秋点兵。2017年10月29日晚上6点，一场属于中加枫华国际学校的英语“烽烟”，在体育馆内再度燃起，“枫华杯”英语演讲比赛决赛顺利举行。

这是一场英语的“练兵”，这是养兵千日用兵一时的历练，这是在枫华用英语封王的荣耀时刻。

经过初赛和复赛的激烈角逐，最后共有44位选手进入决赛，并诞生最后的冠亚季军。而更令孩子们心动的，便是这不仅是“枫华杯”的英语决赛，更是为了争取作为代表参加21世纪、新东方杯英语大赛的机会，因此赛事近乎白热化，孩子们认真、势在必得的状态，一次次将现场焦灼的气氛推向顶点。

和之前的赛制相同，选手们根据年级的不同，需分到不同的组别，而相应的组别比赛的内容也不一样。

除了每个选手都需要准备1.5到2分钟的演讲外，针对小学阶段的孩子，考核他们的是他们的英语小才艺，孩子们可以发挥自己的创意，通过歌曲、朗诵、绕口令等语言表演的形式，将他们**的一面展现给评委和现场观摩的师生。

而初中阶段的选手，更考验他们临场发挥的能力，他们需要根据主题完成情景对话，或与评委对话，这不仅需要孩子能够灵活应变，更需要孩子善于运用语言;

对于枫华高年级的选手而言，英语已经融入了他们的日常学习和生活，是他们除了母语之外的第二语言，因此决赛中对高年级孩子们的考核，便更为严苛，选手们不仅需要利用准备好的演讲打动评委和观众为自己赢得扎实的印象分，还必须通过即兴演讲或现场辩论的方式来战胜自己的对手，同时需要接受评委的提问，这些考验形式让参赛的孩子必须处变不惊，善于思考，拥有的发音，更需要孩子们将英语思维融入自己的大脑和血液中，具备缜密的逻辑，才能在大赛中运筹帷幄征服观众。

学校领导对于此次“枫华杯”大赛给予了高度的关注和支持，并在现场为获奖选手们颁奖。同时，对选手们可圈可点的表现给予了点评和表扬，并提出期望，希望孩子们能走出学校，走向更宽广的天空。

一场校内英语比赛会有如此细致的赛制和流程，取决于枫华举办大型活动的丰富经验，以及对英语教学的得心应手。赛场上年级和形式的细分，正是枫华日常教学的体现，我们针对孩子程度不同年纪不同的分层教学，以及双语、EF课程、ELL课程甚至全英文教学的科学划分，的适应了孩子们的英语学习需求，让每一个孩子从入学时就能顺利跟上进度，从当下出发，搭建扎实的基础、熟练运用一直到融汇贯通，每个环节丝丝相扣。

“枫华杯”英语大赛，是枫华孩子英语掌握现状的一次演练，是枫华孩子博古通今善于思辨的展示，更是枫华立足国际教育多年，对于英语教学丰富经验的体现。

On October 29th the “Sino-Canada-Cup” English speech contest took place in the gym at 6p.m.

The speech contest is the test of how well they are learning English and the memorable moment of the students. After fierce competition of the first round and second round, only 44 students came to the finals. Moreover, we have had our champions, runners-up, second runners-up, to be more excited, it was not just an end of competition, it is the start of “21 Century New Oriental Cup” English Speech Contest held in Suzhou city. Therefore, every student studies harder as they prepare for today’s contests and the future ones. Contestants took part in the competition based on the different areas of study.

For the primary school students, besides 1.5-2minutes speech, they also had to prepare their talent show like to present their comprehension of readings, speaking, recitation, tongue twisters and so forth. For the Junior High School students, they had to start a conversation with the respectable judges based on the subject they chose. The reason for this is to test the level of understanding and their abilities to apply English in the every day standard of conversations.

For the senior High School students, English is part of their education career and life. It is their second language. High School students were required to debate with the other contestant and they also responded the questions that were asked based on their topics. Truly, it is through a calm and collected manner of thinking can one be able to think, process, and communicate in order for them to be the final winner.

Too add further, the reason why the speech contest was a success is because of our high level of experience in holding large-scale activities and having professional teachers. Bilingual teaching courses, EF courses and ELL courses fully satisfies students’ needs of different levels and develops their basic levels fluently to the advanced levels.

In all, “Sino-Canada Cup” English Speech Contest is a good chance for students to practice and demonstrate critical thinking because it truly presents the efforts of the teachers of all areas of study and the administration who work very hard to make the Sino-Canada experience the best in all of China.
