Notes About the Writing Contests (Stage P~F)

Level P

Positive aspects:
-         Very good artwork
-         Creative writing
-         More variety than before
 
To choose the top students we have taken the following into account:
Creativity - We tried to pick stories that were more likely to be written by
the student rather than copied from a book or done with someone’s help.      
Topic - A meaningful topic can definitely make the story more interesting for the reader, especially if it has moral.
Artwork – The drawing should be neat, colorful and match with the story.
Writing skills - Taken into account according to the level.
 
 
Level P 繪畫寫作
共同優點
˙ 優秀的繪圖
˙ 充滿創意的寫作
˙ 題材較之以往更具多樣性
 
為了要選出最優秀的作品,下列所述為評選考量的重點
 
創意:我們試著挑出由自己單獨完成而非參考其他書籍或由他人協助完成的作
品。
主題:對讀者而言,一個有意義的主題會讓故事更具可讀性,如果故事能蘊含寓
      意更佳。
插圖:所呈現的畫作應該維持畫面整潔,用色豐富並且切合故事主題。
 
寫作技巧:符合該級數程度。
 
 
Stages C and D
-         In general, the artwork was considerably well done and the writing very satisfactory. There’s no doubt the students put a lot of efforts into it.
-         The topics were more varied than in previous years.
 
Stages C and D 四格圖畫寫作
大體上來說,所有的插圖都很用心,故事也令人滿意。無疑地,學生們都傾盡全力參與比賽。在主題的選擇上也較往年更多變化。
 
 
 
Stages E and F
-         In general, the artwork was excellent. The topics could be more varied though. Some of the stories are already known. Considering that the artwork was so good, the students could have written something of their own, it could be anything related to the drawings. This would make the story more original and stand out among copies.
 
 
Stages E and F創作小書
整體來說,插圖非常優秀,主題的選擇也較多樣。這其中有些小書以知名的故事為藍本呈現。雖然這些故事的插圖令人印象深刻,但我們更期待結合圖像的原創性故事。也相信這些原創的小書更能在競爭激烈的書群中脫穎而出。
 
 
 
Comments
There are a few things to consider in order to help the students improve their work next time:
 
-         Remind the students to write at least the minimum expected amount of words and pages, according to each stage.
-         The drawing should be neat and the writing as legible as possible.  
-         The students could explore more their creativity and write more original stories rather than just copy a story from a book as it happened in many cases. Even if the students use a much simpler vocabulary, but write something on their own, it is a lot more valuable than a copy. The same should be considered for the drawings.   
-         Try to avoid having more than one student in class writing about the same topic. If necessary, brainstorm the students or give them a list of topics to choose from. Make sure that each student picks a different topic and somehow reward or praise the students who are more creative and come up with a different topic on their own.   
All in all, most students have made great efforts to come up with such good stories and artwork. Thanks to all the teachers and parents’ support, there’s been a considerable improvement if compared with the work the students have done in previous years. Keep up the good work!     
 
 
總評
期待學生有更優秀的作品參賽,以下幾點可列為參考
 
l  所有參賽的作品都應該達到該級數所要求的字數與頁數。
l  圖畫力求整潔,字跡可被辨識。
l  鼓勵學生自行創作而非抄襲知名故事,即使故事用字簡單,但內容出於學生親手之筆,此作品被認同的程度將遠遠高於抄襲之作;畫作的部分我們也用相同的標準來檢視。
l  盡量避免讓多位學生選擇相同主題,不妨透由學生腦力激盪列出可以選擇的主題,再請學生揀選不同的題材來描寫,如果有任何學生寫出自行發想的故事,請記得大大的讚揚他。
 
整體來說,在大部分的作品裡都能看到學生們努力的痕跡,由於老師與家長的支持,比較起往年,學生已經有長足的進步。希望大家繼續努力!
                                                                                               

繪畫寫作比賽評審感言

All the students did a wonderful job in this competition. The essays that have been carefully selected by the judges have these qualities in common:
 
l   Neat drawing and writing
l   Creativity and originality
l   Good morals or lessons within the stories
l   Writing content is interesting and rich
 
Some of the judges’ favorites had beautiful use of coloring and simple but rich writing content. Please keep in mind that the drawings don’t need to be extravagant. We’re simply looking for neatness and colors that “catch the eyes.” The essays should be coherent. Students don’t need to use difficult vocabulary; we’re looking for ‘age-appropriate’ content that is both genuine and expressive.

更有一些作品能善用色彩並以簡單卻有趣的內容深獲評審的心。在此,我們要提醒大家,繪圖方面不需太過華麗誇張,我們只要求畫面乾淨,色彩鮮明,當然繪圖與故事內容要能相互搭配;也不需使用太難的文字,因為我們期待看到的是能夠展現屬於這個年紀的孩子該有的聰慧與表達能力。

創作小書比賽評審感言

Level E and F
We were very impressed with the effort students put in their work. Some of the books were good enough to be sold in bookstores! The winning booklets had these qualities in common:
 
l   Booklet is neatly drawn, written and bound
l   Adheres to the competition page and word count limit
l   Creativity and originality
l   Good morals or lessons within the stories
l   Writing content is interesting and rich
 
The booklets should be easy and fun to read. On every page, there should be a clear connection between the writing and the drawing. The most enjoyable booklets have a clear beginning, middle and end where the story/essay could be sad, scary or funny. Please keep in mind that students don’t need to use difficult vocabulary; we’re looking for ‘age-appropriate’ content that is both genuine and expressive.
 
Level E and F 創作小書
不得不說,我們深深為學生所付出的努力而感動!有些作品甚至好到可以在書店裡面賣!所有得獎的作品都有下列所述之優點
 
˙ 每一本小書都有完整的畫作、書寫與裝訂
˙ 參與的作品都謹守頁數與字數的要求
˙ 故事充滿創意與原創性
˙ 帶有寓意及教育意義
˙ 內容豐富有趣
 
故事小書都應該具有容易閱讀與饒富趣味的特性。每一頁的敘述與畫作也應該要有關聯性!最具可讀性的小書都有一個清楚的脈絡可循→開始,鋪陳與結束。結局當然可以是悲傷,恐怖或是有趣的。在此,我們想再次提醒,故事的敘述不需使用過於艱深的文字,因為我們期待看到的是能夠展現屬於這個年紀的孩子該有的聰慧與表達能力。

著色比賽評審感言




用色方面,本次得獎作品在表現主體上皆有很好的效果,主體明確,畫面層次豐富,或有些作品能嘗試運用漸層效果增添視覺可看性,至於未入選作品之缺憾之處,則可從筆觸整體性,畫面上的賓主之分來加強改進。

創意部份,許多作品皆能在圖框之外運用豐富的想像力以幾何造型或帶有故事性的角色延伸等手法,提升作品在畫面上的閱讀趣味,實為難能可貴。
 
大部分作品皆有一定完整性,入選的小朋友則是具有更多的細節與色彩層次。
