From time to time, he would wipe the sweat from his forehead with his arm and fan a fan with his mended green apron. Every step, he will use his white clock to look at the time and drink two glasses of water in the blue cup. Then I got up and walked numbly to the next familiar brick-moving path.
This summer vacation, a little boy was seen moving bricks back and forth on a small road by the Tang Yuhang River in Hangzhou almost every morning and asked him that all he could say was "exercise".
The boy's name is Zhu Xiao, and he is 1 1 year old this year. His parents have let him drop out of school and let him study at home.
The child's father also said that moving bricks is to exercise Zhu Xiao's willpower and body, and other schools have been chosen for him, so the school will be held later.
? According to Lai, the principal of Xingzhou Primary School in Hangzhou, his father came to the school for a month's leave last September and said that he wanted to transfer his children to a good private school. He said that after long-term attention and on-the-spot investigation, he hoped to let his children go to school. The school agreed to take a month off.
A month later, the child's aunt found the school, saying that the school the child attended was an unqualified private school in a ravine house, and asked the school to help recall the child to Sin Chew Primary School.
? "I immediately found the parents of the children and asked them to send them back to school. They didn't agree." Principal Lai said that after that, she personally talked and learned that the child really wanted to go back to school.
So President Lai talked with parents several times. From the perspective of the Compulsory Education Law and the Law on the Protection of Minors, as well as the laws and needs of children's growth, he talked with parents for a long time, but parents always insisted on their own practices.
? "alas! This child is an excellent child and is developing well in school. Our school held an academic competition and he won the prize. He is also a member of our school track and field team. He runs fast and is good in every way. Our teachers all like this child very much. " President Lai said with great regret.
Once this matter was reported, it caused an uproar on the Internet. I saw nearly 10,000 news comments alone.
When people see this kind of news, they quickly line up. Divided into two factions, one denounces society, denounces illegality and denounces parents. On the other hand, they condemn teachers, schools and the education system. The two groups are uncompromising.
To be honest, such news has been common in the past two years. It won't be long before it comes out, causing heated discussion among the whole people.
Now, if you just search on the web page, you will find many new ways of education, such as letting children carry bricks and cement to do high-intensity work, letting children drop out of school to travel around the world, taking children to explore, go to the deep sea, turn over grasslands, cross deserts, climb the polar regions, and most commonly throwing young children into private schools in deep mountains to learn the Four Books and Five Classics.
Many people also praise this new type of education. And listed a lot of advantages and benefits, as if everyone had experienced it personally. But how many people have really made such comments? The answer can be imagined. After all, what you say is more enjoyable than what you do.
The most cited example is that children don't want to go to school, and parents ask their children to drop out of school or do what they want. Then most children know the darkness of society and talk nonsense about their interests. Get it back, the prodigal son returns. Finally, go back to school and work hard to counterattack Xueba.
Just looking at the ending, how inspiring and exciting this story is. But you forget that their final counterattack was not in the so-called private school class in the social Nature. But in a school criticized by new parents. This kind of example shows nothing and is not representative. It cannot be evidence of new education.
At this time, someone must have refuted it, saying that the current teachers are too irresponsible, completing teaching tasks hastily every day, and playing various teaching methods in order to earn money. There are also teachers who transfer many teaching tasks to parents.
It is said that the education system is dark and unreasonable, and the nine-year obligation is increasingly unrealistic. Education makes students' personality fade gradually, and there are very few things that can really be learned.
It is said that the social education environment is complex, and all kinds of inexplicable cram schools have mushroomed. Circle money under the guise of education.
It is said that times have changed, and education is no longer a single form of reading dead books. Anyway, as long as you can educate your children well.
Yes, all these will do. These are the problems and current situation in China. These may take many years, and it will take several generations of children's reform experiments to change slowly.
Three generations of gentlemen. No one stipulates that there is only one way of education in the world. But education is too much knowledge, and implementation is a huge project. If you don't have enough time and energy, just listen to other people's experiences or have a whim, don't use children to do experiments. Let the children who should grow up happily become the mice under your new education.
And 1 1 year-old Zhu Xiao is. The reporter also went to interview him.
Ask him why he didn't go to school today. He said, "I'm not going to school. I went to the fifth grade before the summer vacation. I'm going to the sixth grade now, but I dropped out of school ... "The reporter was surprised and asked him why.
Zhu Xiao said quietly, "First of all, the education in schools is not good now. Second, I can learn by myself. " He said that he came here to move bricks in the morning and taught himself English in the afternoon. He temporarily stopped studying other languages and maths. "It is very useful to learn English in the future, and my parents don't care about me. Most of them are for me to arrange. "
The reporter explained his identity to him. He said, "Are you in the media? Don't promote me. If you promote me, many people will pay attention. Some people are saying that it is impossible not to go to school, but this is the case with' new education', and many people still can't accept it.
The idea of dropping out of school was put forward by my parents. They explained to me and I agreed. I used to study in Sin Chew Primary School. Anyway, when I was about to quit school, the principal told my parents that I would be arrested for violating the compulsory education law, haha. "
"In fact, moving bricks has another purpose. In addition to exercising, you can also meditate. Because the purpose of meditation is to concentrate, as long as you do one thing, you can concentrate and calm your heart. This is my own experience of moving bricks slowly. When I talk at night, my father will also analyze the truth with me. "
Zhu Xiao lowered his head and told reporters as he walked: "My parents are not at work, they are all at home. My father is engaged in finance and stocks at home. My mother is an educator, learning morality from her sister at home. What I am studying now is "new education", which was initiated by a very powerful person, Zhang Qingyi. You can look at his Sina blog, which is about' new education' and there are many ways to talk about children's learning. "
Grandson has a good personality, obedient and honest, and his son has a bad attitude and is fierce. Grandson is a little afraid of dad. My son is stubborn. After finishing college in Wuhan, he worked in Hangzhou. His wife and he are college classmates. Daughter-in-law is engaged in education, and son has already started speculating in stocks.
Later, when the unit was restructured, it stopped working and concentrated on stock trading. When my son was in stock trading, he met a man named Zhang Qingyi, who has a research on stock trading. He went to a class with him in other places and paid 20 thousand yuan to talk about children's education. When he came back, he wouldn't let his children go to school. The sad grandpa Zhu Xiao said in dismay.
After seeing this interview, I shuddered. It turns out that there are not only sales pyramid schemes in this world, but also educational pyramid schemes! First parents are brainwashed, then children are brainwashed. Shake the banner of new education and engage in a set of pyramid schemes.
The most terrible thing is that some people blindly support and praise this practice after reading some articles taken out of context in the media. But what they don't know is that this is tantamount to adding insult to injury. Make the poor child more miserable.
I am not against new education, but I am against blind practices, extreme attitudes and outdated methods.
I have seen a data: in 20 13 years, the non-governmental non-profit organization 2 1 Century Education Research Institute published the Research Report on Home Education in China: about18,000 students in Chinese mainland were educated at home.
When we talk about this new education, we have to mention the fairy tale king Zheng. Zheng's son, after graduating from primary school, went home to study. /kloc-He left home at the age of 0/8, and founded Pipiru magazine with his savings from working, which promoted his father's fairy tale career and founded Beijing Pipiru General Mobilization Culture and Technology Company as ceo.
As the king of fairy tales, Zheng used his own advantages to combine the characteristics of children's love of fantasy and fairy tales. He personally compiled 10 set of teaching materials, which were staged by his own fairy tale hero.
In content, he not only attaches importance to the education of traditional subject knowledge, but also sets the externalization of language number. More consideration is given to the needs of children's future development based on society and the whole person, and subjects such as philosophy, law, health and self-help are added. A story and a knowledge point are connected in series to form a complete fairy tale novel.
In terms of interpersonal communication and social integration, Zheng did not despise social values because he was divorced from school education. He tied the national flag to the heater and held a flag-raising ceremony every Monday. Since primary school, I have taken my son to watch performances, play ball games and meet people every week, so as to maximize children's contact with society and develop their interests. /kloc-After the age of 0/8, he also fulfilled his promise, leaving him alone and giving him any financial help.
The most suitable new education is this. Every parent has the right to make an education plan for their children, but before you decide to do it, please do two things: first, you must ask your children's opinions, and second, ask yourself if you have the determination and grasp to make your children better and happier.
There is nothing wrong with moving bricks, taking an adventure trip and studying in a private school. What is wrong is that you think this is what children want, this is what you should do, you do it for the good of children, and your method is right. ...
Education is never a trip, let alone a punctuation mark. Some things are done after thought, and some things are done after thought.
