The sadness of parting should be left to myself, and the students should take away happiness, confidence and perseverance ... I will always give my favorite and most admired quotes and poems to the students to encourage them.
1. Face it, deal with it, accept it and put it down
This is a famous saying from the mouth of the late master of Buddhism in Taiwan Province-Master Sheng Yan. The venerable Master Sheng Yan has talked about these twelve proverbs more than once on different occasions and in the face of different crowds in Taiwan Province, Baodao. The Taiwan Province authorities even invited Master Sheng Yan to launch a "public service advertisement" on TV, using his Buddhist sayings to persuade people to face setbacks and treat life well.
Senior three students who are about to take the college entrance examination will soon face the first major test of their lives, and the results of the college entrance examination will determine whether they can realize their dreams for many years. Because the college entrance examination is a selective examination, a certain number of students will encounter setbacks in the examination. In the guidance and psychological counseling of students' exam-taking strategies before the exam, it will not dampen their confidence, but will make them go into battle lightly and calmly because they have learned how to deal with the worst possible outcome.
second, pessimists complain about the wind direction, optimists expect to turn around, and pragmatists adjust their direction
I once compared American educator William? This famous saying of Ward is written in the students' "graduation yearbook", hoping that students should neither be pessimists who complain about the wind direction nor be confined to optimists who expect to turn around in their life journey. Because optimists tend to become mediocre people who go with the flow when they expect to turn, and even worse, they may become cowards who accept it.
take the initiative and create more possibilities. Only by learning to adjust the direction pragmatically according to the shift of time, place and conditions can we enjoy the pleasure of eagle hitting the sky.
I give this famous saying to students to convince them that life is enriched by pragmatism and more exciting by initiative.
third, Stay Hungry,Stay Foolish
Steve Jobs, the founder and CEO of Apple, the leader of American IT trends, gave a speech as a guest at the graduation ceremony of Stanford University in 25. At the end of his speech, Jobs quoted the "Farewell Declaration" when The Whole Earth Catalog, a once very popular magazine in the United States, closed and encouraged students. The original English sentence "Stay Hungry,Stay Foolish" has been translated into a Chinese antithesis sentence full of charm and profound meaning: hungry for knowledge, modest and foolish.
only when people are "dissatisfied" will they expect something, only when they expect something will they yearn for something, and only when they yearn for something will they pursue something. For the graduating senior three students, the end of the college entrance examination does not mean that the pace of pursuing knowledge stops here. After stepping out of high school, students can gain a firm foothold in the knowledge-based economy era of "information explosion" and constantly climb the peak of knowledge so as to gain greater success.
fourth, intelligence is speed, and wisdom is the direction
Strictly speaking, this is not a famous aphorism, but my conclusion after thinking about the relationship between intelligence or IQ and wisdom. The reason why we should talk to students about the relationship between intelligence and wisdom on the eve of graduation is because under the current college entrance examination system of "dividing arts and sciences", students who choose liberal arts or science will have the phenomenon of "emphasizing literature over science" or "emphasizing science over literature".
I want to tell students that we should not only study all our lives, but also cover a wide range. If science trains people's intelligence, then liberal arts improves people's intelligence. Using the concept of "vector" in physics as a metaphor, intelligence is equivalent to speed and wisdom is equivalent to direction, both of which play an indispensable role in the success of life. Light with a faster speed without the right direction will have the opposite effect, and light with the right direction without the proper speed may bring people the frustration of "the heart is willing, but the strength is weak".
5. Every year, the flowers are similar, but every year, people are different.
Every year, from May to July, the phoenix flowers are in full bloom. Looking at the bright and open phoenix flowers on campus, the first thing I see is of course vigor and vitality, but I can't help but think of the ancient saying in the poem "Generation of Sad Pulsatilla" by Liu Xiyi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty: flowers are similar year after year, but people are different year after year.
In this situation, these two poems make me sigh at the fleeting time and the shortness of youth. So on the podium of my last class as a teacher in the third year of senior three, I not only expressed my feelings such as "soldiers in the iron barracks with flowing water", but more importantly, I let the students know as a person who has experienced it: flowers will bloom again when they fade, but people's youth is gone forever.
Youth is for writing, not for spending; The sweat of youth is used to shed, not to volatilize. Through these two verses, I hope that students can cherish every day and every bit of experience spent in their alma mater in high school for three years, and write regretless youth with the strength and perseverance given by their alma mater.
graduation is just around the corner. As long as we avoid giving empty lectures to students in a condescending manner and moaning, we will express our true feelings to students in an equal and harmonious atmosphere. Our words at parting can arouse students' cries and become one of the unforgettable fragments in their high school life; And isn't it the greatest pleasure of a teacher's career that the collision of ideological sparks and the exchange of sincere feelings caused by the students' singing?
