The colorful stickers on the board were commits of UTS community for the sustainable development of the World, especially about the environment protection. Not just on this day, let’s raise awareness about maintaining the green – clean – beautiful environment every day. The richness of the Earth is the primary condition for human beings to build up more meaningful things in the future.

  Visual intelligence is one of the eight types of human intelligence, helping us imagine numerous objects, develop strong visual memory and artistic tendency. At UTS, the students in grade 8.2 can grow this special type of intelligence through the lesson “The World in our Eyes”. The special thing in this lesson is the combination of English and painting. Students will draw their world through their point of view, then present it in English so that everyone can better understand that picture. Each painting shows their unique thought as well as an opportunity to practice their English-speaking skills in front of many people. This exciting class requires UTS-ers a source of vocabulary to be able to explain their world. UTS-ers can also maximize the observation ability which will create plentiful visions about issues of life.

  After one month, the “UTS – 365 THE GROWTH” photo contest has officially ended with prizes for classes which have the highest voting results. Congratulations: First Prize – Class 8.2 Second Prize – Class 7.1 và Class 9.1 Third Prize – Class 1.3, Class 2.3 and Class 3.2 The Impressive Photo Prize – Class 1.5 Thank all 25 classes of UTS who participated in the “UTS – 365 THE GROWTH” photo contest. Through these lovely photos, we can see the development and growth of UTS-ers day by day with many learning and experiential activities. UTS remember our remarkable moments during the last school year so much. Let’s take care of ourselves and be ready for the missions ahead!

  Research of Master Tran Vu LinhUS Vietnam Talent International School Teacher The subject History was often considered quite boring, “difficult” for many students because the amount of knowledge to remember is quite “massive” as well as the characteristics of the subject is difficult to associate with modern reality. Therefore, the teachers of History are constantly exploring and improving new and interesting teaching methods to help students acquire knowledge more effectively. And at UTS, the History teacher has implemented a very unique method: “Applying the art of shadow play in teaching History”. The application of shadow play to teaching, especially the teaching of History in high schools is very new. US Vietnam Talent International School is the first international school in Ho Chi Minh City to pioneer the introduction of shadow play into teaching history and initially achieve encouraging results. The project “Applying the art of shadow play in history teaching” was implemented for the first time in the 2020-2021 school year with the participation of 34 students in grades 10 and 11. After 2 months of implementation, the students completed four works with the content of two themes: “Resistance against foreign invaders from the 10th-15th century” and “World War”. These are the first works, which uts teachers and students devote a lot of enthusiasm and investment both in form and content. Although the knowledge and experience of shadow play is still limited, the products the students create are still extremely impressive and convey the story and historical context as the theme.   The goal of the learning project is to both stick to the standard of knowledge, while aiming to build an exciting training space for History and learn the specific skills of shadow play. Therefore, while writing the shadow play script, the students need to ensure the following
