Across all classes, there is a strong focus on review, organization, and applying learned skills with confidence. Teachers are encouraging students to manage their time effectively, stay consistent with their study habits, and approach exams with a positive and focused mindset.<br>In English Literature classes, students are engaging with classic suspenseful stories such as The Tell-Tale Heart and The Monkey\u2019s Paw. These works challenge students to think critically about themes, character motivations, and the consequences of choices. Through discussion and analysis, students are deepening their understanding of how authors build tension and meaning within a text.<br>In Language Arts, students are working on cause-and-effect essays, developing their ability to clearly connect ideas and explain relationships between events. This unit emphasizes structured writing, logical thinking, and clear communication. Students are encouraged to apply these skills not only academically but also in reflecting on real-life decisions.<br>Beyond academics, there is also an emphasis on personal growth. Students are reminded to support one another, build positive friendships, and make thoughtful choices both inside and outside the classroom. As the midterm period approaches, we are proud to see students balancing academic effort with strong character and community values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1568-2-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/1567-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, students are prepar &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":2546,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"news-category":[20],"class_list":["post-2545","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news-category-cia-campus-news-"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/news\/2545"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2545"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/news\/2545\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2552,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/news\/2545\/revisions\/2552"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2546"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2545"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2545"},{"taxonomy":"news-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ntia.ctbc.edu.tw\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fnews-category&post=2545"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
