Gotta go. Standing in the "dormitory" where even the place to stay can't be found, Lv Yangyang counted with his fingers over and over again. The day when he returned to the company from Zhong Jian Steel Envelope Hope Primary School in Guyuan, Ningxia, can't be wrong.
Looking at the school again, this post-80s technician from the northern area of China Construction Steel Structure Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Construction Steel Structure") never imagined that class meeting classes, composition classes, morality classes, mathematics classes, photography classes, handicrafts classes, Peking Opera performances and choirs have all turned from promises into reality.
In 55 days, three post-80s employees from Zhong Jian Steel Structure, a central enterprise, "wove a beautiful dream" for more than 65.438 million students in this rural primary school in Xihai Guli.
In rural areas, "opening your eyes to see the world" is as important as vocabulary.
"Shy, they are too shy." On the first day of the school's opening, Lu and a group of children stared at each other outside the classroom. The children didn't speak, just huddled together and kept laughing. Lu, who grew up in the countryside, suddenly understood what these children needed. He took off his schoolbag and rushed into the children's pile in one breath, laughing and playing.
The children surrounded him in three layers, jumped on him, put their arms around his neck, kissed his face with their own hands, and did everything they could. That afternoon, his pants were wiped with snot everywhere.
"June 1" is coming, so I have the idea of teaching Beijing opera and running a choir. Lu and the teaching teachers who went with him hit it off and decided to start with activities that brought "confidence and happiness" to these children.
The children in the village have a poor musical foundation and it is not easy to keep up with the rhythm and sing together. Children always shout at the top of their lungs, and the paper with the lyrics is wrinkled. Li Longfei couldn't bear to stop. He asked the students to stand in the shade, put on their hats and stand in the sun, waving their arms to direct. After practicing every day, as soon as he took off his hat and scratched his head, sweat streamed down his forehead, as if he were taking a bath.
"As long as I look into their eyes, I have the strength to continue." This post-80 s boy, who grew up in the city, thought for a moment and said, "I can see their inner desire."
Wang Yang, the only female teacher who teaches, also understands the "desire" of the children in the village: in rural areas, besides cultural knowledge, "the cultivation of vision and interest is equally important". Before leaving, Wang Yang traveled all over Dalian's department stores and selected all kinds of cardboard and tools for the children.
Her origami and art classes have also become the "star courses" of Envelope Primary School. Every class, the children will run to the podium, eyes wide open, for fear of missing any step of Wang Yang's origami and painting. After several classes, Wang Yang found that children could fold waste paper into "beautiful" boats and planes. "Their creativity is really far beyond my imagination, not worse than the children in the city."
Music and art, these unusual courses have brought changes to this village, which surprised the headmaster Hui Jin. A few days after Lu taught the students "Speaking of Singing Faces", Jin Fair found that wherever he went at school, he "heard someone singing this song", and even a bunch of teachers in their forties were "properly" humming in the office. Some parents told him that the children went home clamoring to perform songs for them and became "more lively and cheerful".
Kim was relieved that the photography class was "successfully approved". With five "fool cameras", Li Longfei slowed down and told the children about the relationship between photography and discovering beauty. Without mentioning esoteric techniques or delineating the shooting range, Li Longfei only asked them to "record every point around them".
In the photo, a cow who just gave birth is licking her calf. There is still blood on the cow, but the face has been crying. Looking at this photo handed by the students, Li Longfei didn't speak for a long time. For the first time, he felt that "it would be great to give children such eyes to record the world and take them to discover beauty together."
"'Open your eyes and see the world' is as important as words. At school, it is also what our teaching teachers should do to give children' spiritual food' such as music and art and cultivate their hobbies. " Wang Yang said word for word.
Knowledge and morality "control everything", and students in the village "can't lose at the starting line"
Li Longfei's college roommate once participated in teaching for college students. At that time, Li Longfei always discussed teaching with his "enthusiastic" roommate: "Can you teach alone with enthusiasm? The abrupt teaching concept destroyed the original teaching ecology of the school. Is this good? "
20 1 1 The article "Uncle and aunt, please don't come to teach", which was widely circulated on the Internet, set off a wave of denouncing college students' teaching. After reading this article, Li Longfei chose to teach three years later. He hopes to answer the questions that bother him with actions.
From the beginning, Li Longfei and the other two didn't use "those so-called novel teaching methods". They were assigned to substitute classes and chose to observe.
"Not every rural primary school student is a good student." Wang Yang, who teaches composition class, found that there are many "plagiarism marks" in the compositions handed in by students. In the past, school teachers would definitely "scold", but "take care of it for a few days at most, and then start copying." Wang Yang knows very well in his heart that "scolding students is the worst policy. Students will not know what is wrong at all, but will only be afraid".
She called the students who copied the composition, explained the intention of the composition, then talked about the relationship between writing the composition and the exam, and finally told these students in a "gentle" tone: "I especially want to know your views on life and what kind of stories you have around you. In fact, writing a composition means telling your truth. Let the teacher know what you think next time, ok? "
In the composition class again, Wang Yang took out an excellent composition and read it first before speaking. The children in the village are narrow-minded. In addition to explaining writing skills, this female teacher who is afraid of tanning will take her children and climb mountains with two other people every weekend. If there are any scenic spots or interesting things on the road, Wang Yang will rush to open his mouth and encourage the children to write them in their compositions.
Li Longfei teaches these children ideological and moral lessons. In every class, he tells the fables in the book and watches the children listen attentively. Finally, he always adds, "Don't forget to write this in your composition."
Less than a month later, Wang Yang looked at the composition handed in by his classmates and had a new feeling: "Truth."
Wang Yang is also the acting head teacher of grade five. Boys and girls in the class like to "snitch" on each other. Boys always complain to her that girls gossip behind her back, and girls pout and complain to Wang Yang that boys push books and tear them.
What are we going to do? Playing fifty boards each will only be painless and unconvinced, and simple criticism will get twice the result with half the effort. Wang Yang, who was "distressed", started the "idea" of the class meeting. For several nights in a row, Wang Yang was searching for information and making plans. Soon, the competition named "Who is the better boy or girl" entered the class meeting class of grade five.
This is a "no winner" game. I guess wrestling, singing and painting ... there are four competitions, half boys and half girls. After a contest, the little boy and the little girl found that they were only tied. With a smile, Wang Yang spoke softly and told the children the truth.
"What we have to do is not to instill what we know into our children. We must base ourselves on the local educational ecology and proceed from reality. " In the past few weeks, Li Longfei found that the students in the class are always "silent", remember what the teacher said, rarely take the initiative to answer questions, and even "unable to express themselves".
He began to write letters to students, one by one, dozens of people, hundreds of letters. He and Lu piled dozens of centimeters thick letters on the table, and he answered every letter. It became a common practice to stay up until one or two in the morning, and he also "understood every child's mind."
Some children want to improve their English, so he and Wang Yang "open a small kitchen" to talk about grammar and structure. Some children are not confident, and he always answers hundreds of words of "encouragement" letters. "We hope that children will not lose at the starting line. No matter their study habits or ideals and beliefs, they can' help the horse and send a ride'."
Refusing to make a show, central enterprises "donate more money and wisdom" for rural primary school students.
This is not a "whim" teaching.
In order to actively fulfill its social responsibilities, China Construction Steel donated a Hope Primary School to poor areas every year. Last year, it happened that Zhongjian Steel Structure North Zone undertook the specific task of site selection and construction. "There may be some companies with convenient plans. Ask the Youth Foundation for a list and just donate one. But we won't, the money will be spent on the cutting edge. " Tu Qiang, director of the North District Office of China Construction Steel Structure, who is in charge of the selection work, said.
"We have to choose a school that really needs help." A few months before and after, several employees in the office took turns on business trips and traveled all over the schools recommended by the local youth foundation in Gansu and Ningxia, in order to "implement this grant".
After Envelope Hope Primary School was selected, new school buildings sprang up on Teacher's Day last year. The school building has been repaired, but Yang, general manager and party secretary of China Construction Steel North District, feels bad: "This is far from enough. Improving the educational environment in remote areas requires long-term planning and long-term support. "
The leadership of the North District of China Construction Steel has made up its mind: not only to donate school buildings, but also to send outstanding young employees to Envelope Hope Primary School to teach for a long time. "Just like the steel structure buildings in Zhong Jian are built with a little steel beams and columns, love needs to be gathered a little." The selection of teachers has also been positively responded by employees in the northern region. Wang Yang, Lu and Li stood out from dozens of applicants after primary election and runoff election. Before leaving, they also received a series of trainings on educational psychology and activity planning from professional teachers of Capital Normal University.
On May 10, Yang expressed his original intention: "We should not only donate money, but also donate wisdom."
"We want our children to know that they are valued." On the eve of "June 1st", the leaders of China Construction Steel Northern Region, together with the employees of China Construction Steel Northern Region, crossed nearly 1500 km, bringing special holiday gifts to children. According to 1 12 children's wish cards written in advance, China Construction Steel Structure North Zone one-to-one corresponds to claim children's wishes, give them "privately-made" Children's Day gifts, and write to wish children a happy holiday.
Schoolbags, gourds, books ... 1 12 gifts were not checked and delivered by courier. The employees in the northern area of China Construction Steel Structure brought these "hearts" all the way from Beijing. In the "Celebrating June 1st" activity of this remote Hope Primary School, they also prepared birthday cakes for the children who celebrated their birthdays in June.
Party branches of the company drew 18 "dream weaving pictures" for the children, and the children chose five favorite pictures. On that day, the employees of Zhongjian Steel Structure took the children's hands and drew these five pictures on some broken walls of the school. They painted tall buildings, cities and "the best dreams in children's hearts".
"This is not a one-way effort. We have done so much in the hope that children can understand how beautiful the future is and how worth fighting for. " Yang told the China Youth Daily reporter that in order to help continuously, Steel Structure has also set up a long-term reward and scholarship system for the school, and sent employees to teach every year.
Positive energy transfer, leaving the heart in this "full of love" place.
When this day came, Lu was embarrassed and black, and his hair became messy. When his colleagues went to pick them up, they also recognized him as an old man sunbathing on the roadside. After returning to Tianjin, he has been silent, only sighing between playing mobile phones: "I feel that my heart is still there."
Schools and villages awakened by children's laughter every day have settled in Lu's heart. Although he has to answer the children's "100,000 whys" every day and guard against the "sneak attack" of naughty children from time to time every day, he feels that he has found a long-lost "sincerity and happiness". On the last day, Wang Yang's "king of the children" was finally thrown to the ground by the children. He held the child tightly and cried.
Once, Wang Yang couldn't get used to the three meals of pasta here. The dry weather also made her a little angry. Eggplant, green pepper, potato and radish are not other vegetables. Looking at her face covered with acne, some students quietly brought her melons, cantaloupes and small strawberries picked from home. Although most of the time, those fruits are still raw, Wang Yang couldn't help crying when he looked at these "hearts" on the table.
"I feel that my heart has become clear and full of positive energy." On the day of leaving, the little boy Wang Yang was hugged by the children, and the adults and children cried in piles. The boy who cries the most is the skinniest in the class.
Li Longfei always felt that "it's not over yet". He plans to visit the children as soon as he has time. The camera was left at school, and his photography class was entrusted to a teacher who loved photography, but he still couldn't let it go. He became talkative when he talked about the children at school. He is worried about the children who can't have lunch in preschool, and he is worried about the girls who have been telling him in his letters that he is not confident.
On the day of leaving, Li Longfei stayed up until 4 am. He used an old-fashioned printer to print out the photos taken by the children one by one, and stood there alone staring at the photos and giggling. He couldn't help crying when he arranged the photo exhibition. "Too fast, too fast."
Teaching is over, but the journey of "weaving dreams" will not be interrupted. Wang Yang is expecting that in September, Zhong Jian Steel Structure will invite students from Hope Primary School to come to Beijing and continue to fulfill their dreams.
"This is not only a public welfare action that reflects corporate love, but also a theme education activity for employees." Not long ago, volunteers shared the teaching details with the new employees of 1 18 company 20 14. Many new employees also want to teach. "In fact, children have taught us more. This is also a new idea of corporate public welfare and corporate culture construction. Perhaps this way, enterprises are more willing to do public welfare. " Yang said to him.
