BDS Character Class: Perseverance

Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. (Sir Winston Churchchill)

In our class, we used the activities of Balloon Badminton and Dropping the Cups games to teach perseverance. Never Give Up. It is fun to keep going and fighting to get what you desire.

雅各书 James 1:2-5 Perseverance 忍耐

2 My brothers and sisters, you will have many kinds of trouble. But this gives you a reason to be very happy. 3 You know that when your faith is tested, you learn to be patient in suffering. 4 If you let that patience work in you, the end result will be good. You will be mature and complete. You will be all that God wants you to be. 5 Do any of you need wisdom? Ask God for it. He is generous and enjoys giving to everyone. So he will give you wisdom.

2 我的弟兄们,你们遭遇各种试炼的时候,都要看为喜乐; 3 因为知道你们的信心经过考验,就产生忍耐。 4 但忍耐要坚持到底,使你们可以完全,毫无缺乏。 5 你们中间若有人缺少智慧,就当向那厚赐众人,而且不斥责人的 神祈求,他就必得着。

Inside Out Character Class: 2019 New Year

Beginning of the year. New students. New start. This week, we taught our students about Believe and Teamwork. We want our students to grow up having self-belief and learning to see themselves not just as individuals but part of a team community. With good beliefs and teamwork, success can easily be achieved. These two principles were taught using games and fun activities.

Inside Out Character Class: Teamwork and Creativity

Inside Out Character Class: Teamwork and Creativity.

“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.” ― Albert Einstein

Our children are taught to think freely. Create! And work at your creation as a team. Creativity and teamwork, together, are powerful. This is what makes brilliant ideas work.

Activity: With two pieces of large paper and other simple materials, each team working together must design their most creative costume for their model. Each team has children of all ages. All the team members must work together. Teams are not allowed to rely on just a few. Older members must guide and assist the younger.

Enjoy their creative inventions in the video!

Inside Out Class: Patience (Video)

“Patience is a key element of success.” Bill Gates

We had another class on patience. When we master patience, we will master a key ingredient to love. And love makes a person complete.

Our patience activity were:
1. Counting plastic cups inside and out
2. Stacking and unstacking plastic cups without them falling apart.
Patience is what makes it successful. Not speed. And with patience, the speed increased.

Inside Out Character Class: Patience video

Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance – Samuel Johnson.

Love is patient (1 Corinthians 13:4). To learn patience is to learn love. Patience is that calmness in our hearts when everything else around us urges us to run, to be aggressive, and to not wait. But when we are patient with others, it helps them feel loved; thinking “I am important enough to you that you are willing to wait for me.”

Patience Activity
1. Split to groups with equal number of students
2. With a straw, blow the cotton ball from one end of the line to the other.
3. The key is not which group finishes first. Rather, which group has the least amount of deviations of the cotton ball from the line.

In our exercise, one of the teams finished quickly. But because they were not patient, their group had the most number of cotton balls being blown off the line. So from first place, they had to settle for last place.
