Sow the seeds of kindness and gratitude in the young hearts of students, so that students can feel the care and love of others. First of all, let students know that the happy life that everyone is enjoying at present is brought to them by others through their own efforts. For example, let them know that their parents are working hard to earn money for their studies; Teachers sweat profusely on the podium, correct their homework under the lamp, and let them discover the love given to them by others for their growth, thus sprouting gratitude from their hearts. Secondly, we should educate them to "don't forget to dig wells when drinking water", don't forget the help of others, and don't live up to the kindness of parents and teachers. You should know that when children thank others for their good deeds, their first reaction is often to do the same in the future, which gives children a behavioral hint and lets them know how to love and help others from an early age.
Do you have to do great things to help others? Actually, it is not. As teachers, we should encourage students to do some small things and pay attention to cultivating students' sense of gratitude. At school, I found that students are very polite to their teachers, know how to respect them and greet them when they meet them. Although some junior children are young, they will take the initiative to help the teacher clean the blackboard and help the teacher with things; Many students will help their parents do housework as much as they can when they get home. Even some common actions are the natural revelation and expression of children's feelings, which are true and valuable.
Second, give full play to the exemplary role of teachers' image.
Educational psychology tells students that in the process of forming moral understanding and moral behavior, the role of teacher image as an example is very important. On the one hand, the moral images of teachers' words and deeds provide students with an empirical understanding of moral concepts, so that students can understand the meaning of moral concepts concretely and vividly; on the other hand, they also provide students with an example of learning imitation, so that students can learn to imitate teachers' moral behavior in practice and form their own moral behavior habits. Pupils, especially those in lower grades, often regard teachers' behavior and morality as their own standards. Therefore, in daily school life, teachers should not only play the role of educators, but also be a person who is always grateful and knows how to be grateful. Teachers should match words with deeds, set an example, establish a good image of elegant appearance and civilized speech, and play a good role in cultivating students' sense of gratitude. It can be said that the role model of teachers' image is more convincing and appealing than any empty preaching.
Thirdly, the infiltration of gratitude education in teaching.
At present, the content of moral education in various textbooks is very rich, such as "thank you". And "Thank you for your help." And so on. In math class, when teaching students "year, month and day", teachers ask students to write down their parents' birthdays; There are also many music works in the music course that inspire students' gratitude in a subtle way. For example, Love Home, Love the Motherland and The Sea can cultivate students' love and gratitude for the motherland and nature; Every time I walk past the teacher's window, I sing my respects to the teacher. Teachers should delve into textbooks, tap the factors of gratitude education in textbooks, give full play to the advantages of textbooks, infiltrate gratitude education, organically combine moral education with intellectual education, and let students acquire knowledge and moral edification.
Teachers can set an example for students with the help of teaching materials and encourage students to learn from the characters in the article in teaching, so as to achieve the purpose of education. For example, the students in the text Applause did not discriminate against Eiko because she was disabled. Instead, they encouraged her and gave her applause. Eiko was also very moved and turned this gratitude into confidence in life and motivation for learning. Teachers can take the opportunity to educate students: learn to care about others and cherish their care. Studying hard is also a way to repay others.
