Reading is the minimum bottom line of a teacher's career. School is a place to study and a kingdom of books. A real teacher must be a reading enthusiast. Numerous educational predecessors have proved to us with practical actions that the true meaning of education lies in action rather than teaching. Teachers' reading habits will affect students, lead every student into the world of books, cultivate their enthusiasm for books, and make books a guiding light for knowledge life. All this depends on teachers and on what position books occupy in teachers' own spiritual life (Suggestions for Teachers, p. 69, Suhomlinski). The teacher is difficult to read! Too many things affect us, occupying our time and distracting our energy. The characteristics of our profession require that our work cannot be as simple as eight hours a day. But no matter how many reasons there are, I personally think it must be clear: teachers are scholars first. As teachers at all times and in all countries, although we are unable to directly change the social atmosphere, we must persist in reading for the sake of students and ourselves! Especially we are in such an era of learning socialization, and learning is our way of life. People often say that students should be given a glass of water and teachers a bucket of water. We should always guide teachers to reflect on this point. First, do we have a bucket of water? A bucket of water a few years ago, a decade ago or even decades ago, after such a long time, has been poured on students and leaked. How much is left? The speed of knowledge forgetting is as amazing as its growth. Are we going to use this half bucket of water as a teacher for life? Second, with the rapid development of science and culture today, is only one bucket of water enough? Third, even if there is a bucket of water, what is the quality of the existing bucket of water? Is it high-quality mineral water or ordinary tap water? Is it living water or stagnant water? Fourth, with a bucket of water, can students fill a glass of water? Do we have the ability to sell oil Weng? If you don't master educational science, even if you have a can of water, you may not be able to fill the students' cups; Fifth, do we spend the same labor and time pouring students a glass of water? Is there an efficiency problem here? Are we high input and low output, or low input and high output? Sixth, must the teacher pour the students a glass of water? Does the teacher teach the students how to fetch water or wait for it to pour? Are our students capable of pumping water? Teachers are warned that as soul engineers, they should constantly enrich themselves and keep learning and exploring in order to meet the needs of the times. ! As the basic project of children, education naturally requires teachers to have broad and lofty spirit, a full and holy soul, a sincere and warm feeling and a belief in pursuing a perfect life. People, the most terrible thing is that the soul is empty and the mind is shrinking. As Mr. Zhou said: Due to the pressure of survival and the temptation of material interests, everyone turns their eyes and energy to the outside world and no longer pays attention to their inner world. As a result, the soul is shrinking and empty, leaving only a busy body in the world. There is nothing sadder than this for a person. To avoid falling into this more tragic situation, the most feasible way is that teachers must pay attention to their inner world and seek self-enrichment and spiritual growth. Reading can first change the poor, weak and pale living conditions of teachers. Going to class, from the book, the lack of money is mostly due to too little reading. From students receiving normal education, to qualified teachers, to mature teachers, and then to becoming a practical educator, the gap between knowledge and talent is far more than 108,000 miles: systematic integration and flexible scheduling of subject knowledge, rich and extensive knowledge of social science, natural science and humanities, and free application of pedagogy, psychology and new curriculum ideas. We all have rich experience in class and in life. Reading can change teachers' spirit, temperament and character. My mind is full of poems and books. Books will make teachers no longer mediocre and vulgar. Some people say that character is literature. For teachers, character is also the taste of teaching. For them, the teacher's personality is everything. (ushinski) To spread sunshine into other people's hearts, you must have sunshine in your own heart. (Roman? As the sower of knowledge, the promoter of wisdom, the shaper of mind, the mentor of life and the guide of morality, teachers will really lose everything without noble personality and beautiful mind. When a teacher enters the classroom with a heart that is excited by the images of the gadfly and Christophe, infiltrated by the poems of Shu Ting and Xi Murong, ironed by Yu Hezhou's philosophical words, and baptized by truth, goodness and beauty, his teaching will be extraordinary and will have a direct impact on students' minds. Although the teacher's teaching is only his language world on the surface, it is actually the embodiment of his spiritual world, heart and personality. Reading can make teachers constantly increase their professional wisdom and make their teaching shine with wisdom and full of creative happiness. A teacher with rich spirit and high degree of specialization, with his special professional vision, can draw the fascinating points of the course and draw the most abundant information with the simplest lines, so that students can get the most weighty harvest in the most relaxed way; Can lead students from the nearest starting point to the farthest ending point; Can be idle to the greatest extent, while students are busy to the greatest extent; Can maximize the requirements of every student, but also maximize respect for every student; He can not only make students understand and thoroughly understand knowledge, but also turn the teaching process into an emotional experience process with affinity, immerse themselves in it with students, love it, create with students, and make students' hearts fly; He has a strong sense of curriculum development, not only paying attention to the setting of the runway, but also paying attention to the process of students running. He can turn life into education and education into life. Reading can completely change the lonely, numb and gray life state of teachers. The way to eliminate job burnout and life decline is reading. In the book, great writers, great educators and great artists' passionate and intelligent words about life, great philosophers, great thinkers and great religionists' detached feelings, and even the valuable qualities and sincere love of ordinary people and people who sell pulp in carts will make teachers' lives particularly open, intelligent, open, optimistic, broad-minded and bright. As far as emotions are concerned, whether it is inspiring heroic feelings, inspiring lofty feelings, stirring tragic feelings, rectifying vulgar happy plots, thought-provoking philosophical feelings, or nourishing the soul, teachers' emotions will be particularly rich and delicate, especially full and noble. Passion makes him never satisfied with the status quo, keep forging ahead, boldly create and innovate himself, and always pursue the realm of life that makes students full of passion. In lectures, he always immersed himself in the specific situation of his works, completely devoted himself to the role of his works, and fully showed the feelings and image significance of his works, thus making teaching produce that touching artistic charm. Reading can not only change teachers' lives, but also make teachers think about life historically, so as to improve their own life level and sublimate their lives. Reading can make teachers think and ask more consciously and deeply: what is a person? What do people live for? What is education? What kind of teaching is ideal? What kind of teacher is the ideal teacher? For all these, we have painstakingly thought and tried to find a universal model. Actually wrong, wrong at all! Because education is not a complete and perfect thing at any time and place (Stowe), how can there be a universal model? What teaching routines can be applied to any teaching content and any classroom? All education, teaching and all courses are a process, a motivation, a pursuit, an effort and a struggle. It itself exists in the dynamic development process of the integration of teachers' life, students' life and teaching content, which is embodied in the unique perception, experience, comprehension and discovery of teaching content by teachers and students with their own lives. There are no two identical leaves in the world and no two identical rivers on the ground. Every class is a unique existence, and every class is the development and growth of teachers and students' lives that are not repeated in the past! Recognizing this, we will not repeat others and ourselves, and we will try our best to discover the uniqueness of every educational and teaching activity. Read you an article by Zhu Yongxin: I always think that the history of a person's spiritual development is essentially a person's reading history, and the spiritual realm of a nation depends largely on the reading level of the whole nation. In a sense, reading means education, even school. At school, what I value most are teachers and books. The school provides a reading space, a space for students to study under the guidance of teachers. Teachers' reading interest and level directly affect students' reading interest and level. Therefore, teachers' reading is not only the premise of students' reading, but also the premise of the whole education. Of course, teachers don't just study for students. Some people say that teachers are hard-working gardeners, cultivating beautiful flowers; Some people say that the teacher is a spring silkworm, working hard to death. Others say that teachers are engineers of human souls and shape students' spiritual world; Some people even say that teachers are candles, burning themselves to illuminate others. Now it seems that there are many problems with these things that have been written in our pedagogy textbooks. In my opinion, a teacher is not only a gardener, but also a beautiful flower. Flowers cannot affect gardeners. They can only bring gardeners a sense of pleasure and accomplishment. In real life, students have a great influence on teachers. The process of education is the process of interaction between teachers and students. At the same time, how do gardeners develop themselves? Our past educational theory emphasized that the value of teachers must be reflected by the value of students, ignoring the direct presentation of teachers' own value. Teachers are not spring silkworms, life is in four seasons. Spring silkworms spin silk aimlessly or even aimlessly. Its mission is to build an eternal nest for itself, and at most provide human beings with a few silk for textile. This obviously should not be the image of a modern teacher. Teachers are not candles. It is absurd to regard teachers as illuminating themselves and others. Some people think it's not enough. They want teachers to burn at both ends to speed up the pace of burning to ashes. It is obviously inappropriate to base the premise of students' development on the sacrifice of teachers. Teaching is an adventurous and even dangerous profession. Great men and sinners can be formed in his hands. Therefore, teachers must tread on thin ice and try their best to sublimate themselves and their students. Teachers' happiness is not only the success of students, but also their own enrichment and success. The time and space available to teachers determine that teachers are happy people. He can design and arm himself, make himself versatile, enrich his spiritual world and get rid of vulgarity. The most important way for teachers to achieve the above state is reading. In the history of human education for thousands of years, many valuable educational ideas have been created and accumulated. The carriers of these wealth preservation are mainly educational classics. Reading classics and talking with educators in past dynasties are the basic conditions for teachers' growth and the basis for the formation and development of teachers' educational thoughts. The formation of educational wisdom, in a certain sense, is the process of crossing the bridge composed of these classics. This is an insurmountable process. Although human education is constantly changing and developing, education will not change at all, the function of educating people will not change, and the inherent law of the education process will not change. For example, educational innovation is one of the main themes of our time, but the discussion on innovative education may not have surpassed Tao Xingzhi. Therefore, many modern new educational ideas actually only use the language and cases of our time to talk to the past masters. Teachers' reading is not only the source of seeking nutrition and educational wisdom of educational thoughts, but also the impact and exchange of emotions and will. Teachers can learn a lot from the works of educators in the past. Intentional teachers will carefully read the important documents of education and seriously study the life ideals and personality strength of educators in different times. Reading will make our teachers better at thinking and stay away from impetuousness, thus making our teachers more educated and making our education better. (Zhu Yongxin/Vice Mayor of Suzhou, Professor of Suzhou University) Reflection, in short, is to think about the past, sort out ideas, find problems, find a way out, form a virtuous circle in thought, and realize continuous accumulation and improvement. Reflection is of great significance to teachers' professional development, because the process of teachers' development is a process of autonomous learning and improvement, and its significance lies in the change of teachers' behavior, which comes from teachers' hearts. It can be said that teachers' professional development is a process of self-reflection. American psychologist Posner gave a concise formula of teacher growth: teacher growth = experience+reflection. If a teacher is only satisfied with gaining experience without thinking deeply, even if he has 20 years of teaching experience, he may only repeat his work 20 times a year. There will be no progress unless he is good at learning from experience and reflecting. Always stay at the level of novice teachers. There were two first-class swordsmen in modern Japan, one was Musashi Miyamoto, the other was Yagyu and Shoulang, and Miyamoto was Yagyu's master. When studying in Miyamoto, Liu Sheng once asked his teacher how to become a first-class swordsman: How long will it take to become a first-class swordsman and qualify as a disciple? Miyamoto: at least 10 years. Yagyu said, 10 is too long. If I redouble my efforts, how long can I become a first-class swordsman? Miyamoto smiled. Yagyu added: If I redouble my efforts, how long will it take me to become a first-class swordsman? Miyamoto sighed and replied: If so, you will only die. Where can you become a first-class swordsman? Yagyu more listen to more confused. At this time, Miyamoto said: If you want to be a first-class swordsman, you must keep an eye on yourself. A swordsman can never be a first-class swordsman if he only looks at kendo and doesn't know how to examine himself and constantly reflect on himself. Miyamoto deserves to be a first-class swordsman. His words are eloquent and meticulous, which makes Yagyu have an epiphany! This is also related to our teaching. If a teacher only works hard at pulling a scooter for decades, never looking up at the road or looking back, then at best, he can only become an out-and-out teacher and never become a first-class educator! Teaching focuses on reflection, and we should learn to calm down and constantly explore the inner voice. If you only know repetition and blindly copy and jump around according to previous songs, the teaching work will be similar year after year. How can there be a new atmosphere of different people year after year? Therefore, it is very important to reflect on this step. Think wide and you can live, think deep and you can understand. Only by fermenting, filtering, refining and evaporating the rough, mixed, superficial and fragmentary educational hodgepodge can we finally cook a beautiful and delicious educational meal! Reflection requires a hand that knows nothing about this matter, an eye that is knowledgeable everywhere, a heart that reflects on my body three times a day, and the courage to jump out of the true colors of Lushan Mountain. The difference between people lies in their spare time. This is Einstein's famous saying! If our eyes are blinded by the busy educational life without leisure, if our brains are full of trivial and mediocre education, then we will be as difficult to open our eyes for independent thinking as that Yagyu, and it will be difficult to clean up a place for meditation and reflection in our hearts. Suhomlinski said: Teachers' free time is the root, which nourishes the branches and leaves of educational art. After a good class, sit quietly at the desk, then calmly sort out their teaching ideas, clean up their teaching behavior, sum up their teaching gains and losses, capture some details in classroom teaching, and write down a wonderful episode or sudden inspiration in class in time! Such leisure is very important! For example, after a day's work, in the silent night, you can swim leisurely in the sea of books, like a fish in the water, like a bird in the forest, pursuing a leisurely mood and creating a comfortable place. Reflect on reading, grow up in books, let educational masterpieces polish their eyes, glow their educational feelings and change their educational concepts! We should be good at finding a reflective mirror for ourselves from time to time, and have a unique sense of smell and sensitive touch for education everywhere. Don't be confused by superficial phenomena, and don't follow the trend and fall into daily educational routines. Education is colorful and varied, so don't blindly follow it, don't be confused, and don't get stuck in the true face of education and can't tell East from West! In the face of an educational problem or trivial educational phenomenon that others take for granted, we should ask ourselves soberly: Why? What's the difference between me and others? Is my opinion easily influenced by others? What is hidden behind this problem or phenomenon? Think along, think backwards, think as a whole, think locally, look at the problem from multiple angles or from another angle, and your thoughts will become more and more mature and perfect! For example, group discussion is popular in class now, which is very lively: you see, the students played the trick of daring to ask questions, then played the game of group cooperation, and finally, added a live performance to make the whole classroom atmosphere lively! The classroom has become a teahouse to coax you to come and go, and the classroom has become a stage for you to sing and I will appear. This kind of teaching has brought students' initiative to the extreme, which is amazing! But if you can keep a clear head, you will calmly reflect on such classroom teaching. Will doubts be broken in students' discussion? Have the teaching difficulties been solved in a warm atmosphere? Are the teaching points precipitated in the students' hearts in the superficial prosperity? Teachers should be sensitive to details, be good at recording and analyzing what they see in life and education, and feel the true meaning of educational life. Record students, record schools, record colleagues, and record the nuances of your life, and your wisdom will be improved in this nuance. Master Suhomlinski gave us an example. In his works, he is a living child, a flesh-and-blood teacher, and a meticulous thinking detail that even the eyebrows of his eyes are recorded everywhere. Perhaps this is the growth of the master, perhaps this is the witness of the master leading our life growth. We put forward teaching reflection, which is a compulsory course for any teacher to grow up. Although it is passive and even has some emotional resistance, the development of education also requires us to turn our backs. Today's education is to train people in the future, people who will live in the future and people who will accompany us. If we don't reflect on teaching and what education is and why, teachers will never be able to eliminate professional slack. Teachers' professional slackness or even numbness is not only a matter of treatment and conditions, but also a matter of repeating their own problems year after year. If a teacher hasn't thought about why he became a teacher, experienced the glorious chapter of education and understood the diversity of students, he will still be very tired even if he earns 10 thousand yuan a month. Therefore, human education is a process of finding spiritual home. We can regard the job of a teacher as a rice bowl or a profession, but some people will regard it as a career. This is a person who transcends reality and utility and turns education into a career. This is a kind of pursuit, and it will make people feel a kind of happiness and happiness: life comes for an important event. Just as a teacher is a professional reader, reading is a teacher's strength. Lack of reading consciousness is more terrible than no books. Education without pursuit is lifeless education. Reading is life and education is creation. Speaking of which, you have more recognition in your heart. what are you going to do？ Of course, the teacher's life is his own after all. What kind of life he will actually have is how he views, imagines and plans his own life. Ferguson, a famous American writer, said: Everyone is guarding a door of change that can only be opened from the inside. Whether we are emotional or emotional, we can't open this door for others. The door to teachers' growth can only be opened by teachers themselves, and there is nothing others can do. Finally, I ended this study with a beautiful language: when you go beyond the length of life, expand the width of your heart and increase the depth of your soul, you will find that buds are budding, flowers are in full bloom, autumn colors are dyed with gold, Mei Xueying is fragrant, and life is as beautiful as a flower season; Red light warms the dust, the sun shadows cross the river, the wind and rain wash the new color, and life is picturesque.
