A famous speaker speaks what is in his mind and feels what is in his heart.
The study of weekly quotation has been going on for the third year. The content of the first year of study is some ancient and modern aphorisms, simple and casual. Later, I thought it would be more systematic, so I simply used these broken time to let students have a simple and general contact or understanding of traditional cultural classics. Therefore, the contents of the six-year primary school are discussed as follows: three semesters of amethyst, three semesters of classical poetry (campus poetry card), three semesters of Analects of Confucius, one semester of Mencius, The Doctrine of the Mean and the University.
I am studying Mencius this semester. Every day when I walk into the campus, two famous readers with red ribbons and small speakers stand neatly at the school gate to welcome every teacher and student. Their full and loud voices are sent to your ears with the morning breeze: "Please look at the famous saying of the week-Mencius said:' Wealth cannot be lewd, poverty cannot be moved, and power cannot be bent. This gentleman, "-"Mencius Teng Wengong ""Please read the weekly famous saying-"Compassion is the last thing to do; The heart of shame and evil, the end of righteousness; The words of the heart are the end of the ceremony; The heart of right and wrong is also the end of wisdom. A man has four endings, but he still has four bodies "-"Mencius Gongsun Chou "... Teachers and students will involuntarily look to the famous weekly column on the left side of the school gate and follow the readers. At first, everyone was required to read it once they entered the school. Later, after a long time, some students will watch it, some students will take a look, and some students will ignore it. However, the famous reading guidance arranged by the Young Pioneers has been working hard. They hold their heads high every day, face the morning sun, and stick to their posts like brave and responsible little soldiers. The crisp reading sound is played over and over again in everyone's ears, becoming a small ceremony and scenery of Hengfeng.
When the bell rang, the first sentence to greet the teachers and students was to read the famous words of the class: "Please read the famous words of the week with me." Everyone looked at the famous words that the teacher changed regularly every week on the blackboard and read them neatly and loudly. Six or seven classes a day, one week, read aloud thirty or forty times, and those famous words will be stored in children's minds effortlessly. The longest famous saying in this semester was in the second week: "Mencius said,' Mount Tai is better than Beihai, and people say …'" The classical Chinese with nearly 100 words seemed to be crumpled, and the students basically won. Their memory ability is admirable!
At the end of the semester, the guidance office organizes staff to check the learning situation of famous sayings in each class. When I sit in my office, I will hear one reading after another. Every class has some masters who recite famous sayings. They don't spend time reviewing any more. After a semester, nearly 20 chapters of classical Chinese came. We just find and praise some excellent classes or students, and don't force what we don't want to learn or remember. Let students have their own interests and choices. We don't uniformly ask the teacher to explain the meaning to the students, just to achieve the purpose of memory, just to have a general understanding, but the child's thinking has reached the place where he wants to go.
The famous saying of the week is, "People who are persuaded by strength cannot support themselves unless they are persuaded;" Students will use this sentence to comment on their teachers and parents. Why do they sometimes feel that they are particularly unwilling to listen? It turns out that some people are "convincing others with strength", and some people always convince others with words. That's because the other party is "convincing others with virtue."
The famous saying answering session arranged in the school special activity "Poetry Contest" is one of the most dazzling famous sayings. Enjoy a big meal. The topic given by the host teacher is not tricky, but it really doesn't bother our excellent children. I can't think of any famous words around me at the moment, but their hands are impatient. Children who make me proud.
Recently, the school arranged a random test. There is a reading question on the fourth grade Chinese test paper. The title of the article is "A red apple given by a stranger". A strange aunt gave me a red apple, and I was afraid to eat it when I remembered the story in Snow White. As a result, I learned later that it was "I" who was oversensitive and misjudged each other's kindness. There is a question at the back of the article: "What do you think you should do when you go out alone after reading this story?" There are many ways for students to answer, and the teacher gives points to everything he thinks is reasonable. Several answers make people feel very fresh. They wrote: "if I meet such a person, I will look into her eyes, because a person's eyes can't hide the evil inside her." If her eyes are bright, it means that she is an upright person, so I can trust her; If her eyes are cloudy, it means that she is not an upright person, so don't trust her ... "The teacher who corrected the paper smiled. Isn't this the famous saying in Thirteen Weeks that she just learned? -"Mencius" said:' Those who exist in people are not good at eyes. Eyes can't hide their evil. Eyes with regular breasts; Irregular chest and eyes. Listen to him. Look into his eyes. How thin are people? "
It turns out that our children can apply what they have learned more than we thought! I want to harvest a spring breeze, but you gave me the whole spring! Educators are always surprised.
