That Day We Opened a Med School 那一天我們開設了醫學院

The 6thgrade students at Shanghai American School’s Pudong campus made a startling discovery: an epidemic in the library! Or at least the plants there were experiencing one. In response, young ‘plant doctors’ in Ms. Fung-kee-Fung’s classroom are now rushing back and forth, donned in white lab coats, some carrying clipboards, others feverishly recording data onto their laptops. Just like real doctors, the students are bent over microscopes, inspecting leaves, looking for any clues that may help them diagnose their plants’ illnesses. Around this middle school science room, plants of different sizes and shapes adorn window sills and desks, transforming it into a lush, green hospital, and the students into fearless doctors.

上海美國學校浦東校區六年級的學生有了驚人的發現：學校圖書館里爆發了流行病。至少是圖書館里的植物之間爆發了流行病。Fung-kee-Fung女士課堂上的小小“植物醫生們”立刻反應過來，他們穿著白大褂來回奔波，一些學生拿著寫字板，一些學生則忙于將數據記錄到他們的筆記本電腦中。就像真正的醫生一樣，學生們彎著腰，使用顯微鏡對植物的葉子進行檢查，尋找著可能幫助他們診斷出植物所患疾病的線索。在上海美國學校初中部科學教室，窗臺上和課桌上擺滿了大小和形狀各異的植物。科學教室儼然成為了一所郁郁蔥蔥的植物醫院，而學生們則成為了無所畏懼的植物醫生。

The idea for the plant doctor program emerged from a previous unit that focused on studying animals and their habitats. However, this semester, Ms. Fung-Kee-Fung and her classes decided to take a turn focusing on plants instead of animals. Each plant doctor works with a sick plant (contributed by a member of the SAS community) and becomes personally invested in the task of reviving it. They give their green patients a name, make and record observations, and set out to find a cure. Then, slowly, the young doctors begin the treatment process, carefully observing how the plant reacts each step of the way. When the plant is finally healthy, just like a real doctor, the students discharge it.

植物醫生項目的想法源于此前一個專注于研究動物及其棲息地的學習單元。不過，本學期, Fung-Kee-Fung女士和她教授的班級決定專注于研究植物，而非動物。每位植物醫生負責一棵患病的植物（由上海美國學校社區成員提供), 負責讓植物恢復健康。他們給自己的植物病人起名，進行觀察并做記錄，最終找到治療方法。小小植物醫生們便開始慢慢地實施治療，在每個環節仔細觀察植物對治療的反應。植物恢復健康后，學生們會讓植物“出院”，就像真正的醫生一樣。

Nothing like opening a Med school in 6th grade to make the SAS community a greener and more vibrant place.

再沒有什么比六年級開設的“醫學院””課程讓上海美國學校社區變得更加綠色，更加活力十足了。

BOTANY. EVERY DAY AT SAS.

學習。上海美國學校的每一天。
