After reading a famous book carefully, everyone must have a lot of feelings in their hearts. Why not write a review? Is it impossible to write without a clue? The following is my thoughts on Xiashan School for your reference only, and I hope it will help you.
After reading Xiashan School, 1 I read Xiashan School for the first time. I want to talk about my views:
Freedom and equality are two key concepts that run through summer mountain schools.
When Neil and his wife founded Xiashan School, they had a basic idea: let the school adapt to students, not students adapt to the school. This laid the foundation for students' freedom. In the book Summer Mountain School, Neil mentioned freedom from the beginning. He described the students in Xiashan School as follows: "They can attend classes freely, or they can not attend classes, and they can attend classes all year round if they want ..." It can be seen that in Xiashan, children are free and choose whether to attend classes. What are the consequences of class freedom? Is there no one in the classroom during the class, or are the students doing their own things while the teacher is lecturing? The answer is no, there is no examination system in Xiashan. Students study or attend classes because of interest. If they are interested, are they still worried about studying? Nine-year-old David will feel sad and miserable because he has a cold and a cough, and his classmates will feel sorry because they can't attend the courses they are interested in ... This is the charm of Xiashan School. At the same time, the freedom that Xiashan School upholds is not equal to indulgence. Summer Mountain School is a paradise that gives children full freedom, but this does not mean that children can do whatever they want at school. In Neil's view, it is absurd for a young mother to think that her three-year-old child is developing freely by painting the door with ink; Three-year-olds should be prevented from walking on the dining table. Freedom is based on not causing trouble to others.
In Xiashan School founded by Neil, the relationship between teachers and students is equal, and Neil himself is no exception. In Xiashan, students, like all faculty members, have the right to vote on school rules and regulations, and the relationship between teachers and students is more like friends. Five-year-old Billy will let him leave because Neil is not in his birthday invitation. Similarly, Neil has the right to let Billy leave his office. In Xiashan, students are not afraid of teachers, and they can even joke with teachers without scruple. Teachers also enjoy it and will not get angry. For all teachers, students can call them by their first names, not Mr. or the teacher. This educational concept gives all students in Xiashan a kind of "super power"-self-confidence. Students who go out from Xiashan School are full of self-confidence rather than passivity and timidity when interacting with others. As Jack said, "Summerhill gave him absolute confidence!" And this kind of self-confidence is engraved in the bones, and it can also make others really feel it.
The concept of freedom and equality in Xiashan School is worth learning. In our school education in China, students are not given certain freedom and equality. Most of the students' thoughts and ideas are suppressed, and the relationship between students and teachers is more like a superior-subordinate relationship. I think in the long run, it is not conducive to the development of students. We can learn from the beneficial educational ideas of Xiashan School to improve our educational methods.
Reflections on Summerhill School 2 Summerhill School has been selling well all over the world for decades. Summerhill School has become a model of education and fascinated the whole world. What is the charm and mystery of the "Summer Mountain School" that fascinates people? With many mysteries, I began to read.
During the summer vacation, I read this famous book carefully and learned that Summerhill School is located in liston Town, East Suffolk, England. It reveals something extraordinary in the ordinary. It is the most humanized happy school, a model of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, full of endless vitality. I like this book very much. I like summerhill school.
"Paradise-like School" is my first impression of Xiashan School, and it is also a major feature of Xiashan School. Students enjoy freedom and freedom here, and have unlimited freedom in class and life. At first, I was curious and puzzled. Students can choose to study at any time and choose their favorite courses without attending classes. What is the school like? I imagined ... later I found out that students are proud of Xiashan School and consciously abide by the discipline of the school.
I am deeply impressed by Xiashan School. The second point is that the students are very old, ranging from 7 to 17 years old. They come from all corners of the country, but their classmates get along well. Every corner here is full of love, because love can create miracles, and love conveys warmth, emotion and self-improvement. Students who go out from here are confident, independent, diligent and successful.
In the book, I feel that the students in Xiashan School are free, but not selfish, and everyone is healthy and happy. As Neil said, Xiashan School has not suffered from diseases for more than 40 years, which is the result of the concerted efforts of all teachers and students of Xiashan School, Qi Xin. There are three reasons: first, freedom; Second, the food is good; Third, the air is fresh. Everyone lives freely, but they should be self-disciplined, pay attention to hygiene, maintain good living habits and create a beautiful environment for themselves and others. Everyone volunteered to take part in labor and take the initiative to do what they like. Everyone thinks of the upcoming G20 summit as their own business. With a little effort, let's make Hangzhou warm, atmospheric and charming! Everyone in Xiashan School is full of humor and wit. Humor is full of friendliness and laughter, and everywhere is full of joy and vitality. We should always keep a happy heart and greet the world-famous G20 Summit and Hangzhou Asian Games with a smile, just like the students in Xiashan!
Summerhill School gives us a more important revelation: the school lets children be themselves and does not force them to do things they don't like. Less preaching, more tolerance, more smiles and love, so that students can get the greatest happiness and happiness! Summer Mountain School shows people her infinite charm! I like summerhill school!
Reflections on Xiashan School 3 This summer, I was lucky enough to read the century-old story of Xiashan School. The theme of the whole book is love and freedom. "People-oriented" and "student-oriented development" are profoundly interpreted in the book with vivid cases. As a colleague, it is not only admiration, but also enlightenment.
Some people may ask, if the school is like this, what teachers are needed? But it is undeniable that in Neil's mind, children come first. He regards children as living individuals, individuals with ideas and requirements, rather than products on the production line. There is not much mention of the word "love" in the book, but through every sentence, I feel the heartfelt love of Xiashan School for children. This reminds me of a particularly disruptive student I teach. Why does he always refuse to change his teaching and go against the teacher all day? I think that's because I don't like him and have prejudice against him, so I'm tired of watching him. If I can love my child unconditionally like Neil, he will definitely change.
Regrettably, although many people, including experts, teachers and parents of students, appreciate the examples described in The Centennial Story of Summer Mountain School, it seems that we are used to forcing our children to receive some kind of education and let them enter some kind of life track. In fact, if the concept of learning is not extended from books to changes in life, children will not enjoy the freedom of learning. Their faces are full of troubles and pains. Although they can get high marks, they don't have their own ideas and lack creativity and enthusiasm for learning. After they enter the society, they often follow the crowd and drift with the tide.
Children really need a happy and free learning environment. Children who grow up in this environment can have rich creativity and enjoy the fun of life. Children's world is rich and colorful. They all have whimsical childhood and sometimes they are naughty. These are the deepest impressions when they recall the past as adults. Thinking of the lovely appearance of children kicking stones while walking in the running mode of Xiashan School reminds me of my childhood-picnicking by the stream, walking by the river, playing hide-and-seek among the trees on campus, chatting and telling stories under a big tree … how attractive these activities are to children. As teachers, we should care for children's nature and make their childhood colorful.
Children in Xiashan School can only attend their favorite classes, which makes me realize that learning should be based on interest and personality differences should be treated correctly. Therefore, teachers should focus on improving students' interest in learning and face up to individual differences. It is better to cultivate happy scavengers than unhappy readers.
As teachers, facing their historical mission and responsibility and students with different personalities, we should clearly realize that "successful education is to help everyone find and realize themselves and become the best themselves."
After summerhill school, I lay quietly in bed. After reading Summer Mountain School written by Mr. Neil, I really felt a burst of enthusiasm impacting my chest. One educational scene after another comes to mind. I keep asking myself: How big is education? How far can education go?
I felt the greatness of educational content for the first time. I am awed by the huge tolerance of education and fall at her feet. But after finishing Xiashan School, my understanding of education has a feeling of "climbing Mount Tai and being small in the world". If the education I understood before is tangible and deductive, the education in Xiashan School seems to have reached the realm of "moistening things silently" and "elephant invisibility". This made me really realize how important education is. Education, how far can you go!
In Xiashan School, real democracy and equality have been achieved. All matters involving the school and the collective are decided by all the students in the school assembly, the autonomous institution of the school, and the principal has only one vote.
Children in Xiashan School are tired of learning, feel inferior and rebellious, which are "problem children" in the eyes of parents and teachers. After coming to Xiashan, they have undergone earth-shaking changes: learning spontaneously and consciously, learning independently, full of confidence, loving themselves and others, and each child's body and mind have been fully and freely developed. After many years, they became outstanding artists, musicians, designers, actors, scientists and mathematicians. ...
Too many incredible and unimaginable things are vividly displayed here, which makes me really realize how education lays the foundation for life and how to develop freely.
In summerhill school, there is no preaching and control. All I feel is the voice of the principal, the pulse of teachers and students beating together, and the happiness of growing up together. This kind of education has gone beyond the level of form, skill and even content. There is no fixed pattern and content. In fact, it has surpassed the traditional educational concept and risen to a spiritual level and a philosophical realm.
A philosopher once said that what is broader than the ocean is the sky, and what is broader than the sky is the human mind. I compare the education in Xiashan School to the education of the soul. Only when the hearts of our teachers and students blend freely can we achieve such a state of "moistening things silently" and "elephant invisibility". In this sense, the education of Summerhill School has undoubtedly surpassed the "education of love", and the book Summerhill School has infinitely expanded the space of our educational imagination.
Let's close the book and ask again from the bottom of our hearts: how big is education? How far can education go?
Reflections on Summerhill School 5 At the beginning of school, the school recommended a copy of Summerhill School to all teachers, so I used my spare time to savor it.
Summer Mountain School is about a school called Summer Mountain in England. The author of this book is the founder of Xiashan School "A". S. Neil, the schools founded by Mr. Neil are unique in the world, and there can't be many. After all, the educational concept advocated by this school is very different from the education we are carrying out now. In Xiashan, children are highly respected. Founder Neil and his wife * * * have the same philosophy of running a school: "To create a school for children, not to adapt them to the school." .
On the other hand, in our current education, parents and teachers often have high expectations for their children, and their grades must be among the best, and they will be punished if they make mistakes. Teachers are under great pressure, and children are always anxious, and even have a fear of work and study. Parents impose their own values on their children, depriving them of the right to discover, explore, experience and enjoy themselves, and cultivating puppets without personality and self. They have lost their natural nature of happiness, and they are always engaged in various conflicts and struggles between their true self and their distorted self. Their problems have seriously affected their quality of life and will be carried over to the next generation.
Educating children is not to cater to the society, but to let them develop and grow freely according to their own nature, so that children can face the essence of life sincerely, enjoy the fun of life happily and actively realize their self-worth! Everyone has a different definition of success. I think children who are set an example by their parents and schools may have good jobs, high incomes, high academic qualifications and be respected. This is called success. But I think for those children who grow up naturally according to the law of their own life development, happiness, sincerity, love and doing what they really want to do are his success. Amily, a waitress in the movie "Angel Emily", enjoys life, does what she likes, brings happiness to others and tries to find true love. She is sincere to her heart, and her free and happy heart is as pure as an angel flying in the sky.
In front of children, we should be modest. Only the morality and truth in our bodies are above us, but we are equal to children and even have to "serve" them like servants. I want to learn from them. We want to learn from them and grow together.
Reading "Summer Mountain School", our thoughts are constantly churning, and many problems in education make us think and reflect. Like a newborn, it grows slowly in our body and becomes a new "Summer Mountain School".
