在过去的几周里，王府外国语学校小学部PYP五年级的学生们一直在探索新的探究单元“我们是谁”。他们在增长自己的知识，加深对中心思想“人们选择哪些以积极的方式影响世界的榜样”的理解。我们的三条探究线索分别是：正面榜样是如何养成的；我们对于榜样的选择；个人选择和行为是如何影响社会的。
在这几周的时间里，学生们探索了来自世界各地不同领域的榜样，如艺术家、作家、企业家、明星等。
Over the past few weeks, PYP Grade 5 students have been exploring a new unit of inquiry, “Who We Are”. They have been developing their knowledge and understanding of our central idea, “People choose role models who influence the world in a positive way.” Our three lines of inquiry are: What makes a positive role model; Our choices of role models; How personal choices and actions affect society. For the past 3 weeks, students explored role models from all over the world in different fields, such as artists, writers, entrepreneurs, and stars.
3月16日，学生们带着他们对榜样的好奇来到了“杜莎夫人蜡像馆”。杜莎夫人蜡像馆的简介里写到：“无论你去哪里旅游，你一定会在杜莎夫人蜡像馆里找到你最好的伙伴。我们在世界各地的蜡像馆都会为你提供与当地最具影响力的政治领袖、音乐家、演员或体育明星面对面的互动体验。你还可以见到许多影响了各地历史的重要人物。”学生们都很激动，想要去了解那些来自世界各地以不同方式影响世界的榜样。On March 16, students brought their curiosity about role models to “Madame Tussauds Wax Museum”. The introduction to Madame Tussauds says: “No matter where you travel, you are sure to find your best friend at Madame Tussauds. Our wax museums around the world offer you face-to-face interactions with the most influential political leaders, musicians, actors, or sports stars in your area. You can also meet many important people who have influenced history everywhere. Students were excited to learn about role models from all over the world who have influenced the world in different ways.
蜡像馆分为3层，包含7个不同的板块。The wax museum is divided into three floors and consists of seven different sections.
