How to make children the masters of life

Now, many schools have developed a variety of courses, and students participate in them, which is a happy scene. But is this what all children need? We find that many children can't stand a little criticism from their teachers and a little indifference from their peers. Children in the third grade can't sweep the floor, children in the fourth grade can't tie their shoelaces, and children in the fifth and sixth grades can't peel fruit. Is this the child needed by the times? Our education should return to life and let children become the masters of life. Therefore, our school has carried out a new exploration of "four breakthroughs and four innovations" practical education.

Break the knowledge and fill the duck, and establish skills training. Traditional education focuses on imparting knowledge, and today's curriculum focuses on cultivating skills. Under the guidance of curriculum reform experts, the school returns the classroom to the students through group cooperative learning, and leaves time for the students to think, interact and show wonderful things in the classroom, so as to further improve their learning ability. The school also offers life and labor courses such as cooking, knitting and tourism design. And regularly carry out practical activities with the theme of "self-care and self-improvement". Children learn basic life skills and improve their self-care ability by dressing, tying their shoelaces, tidying their schoolbags, cleaning their seats and wrapping jiaozi.

Break the bondage of classroom and establish social practice. We don't want children to only see the sky at the four corners of high walls, but to lead school education to society. Since 1998, the school has been committed to environmental education, and has created many creative activities, such as green action with red scarf and low-carbon action, and regularly carried out field research, waste recycling, environmental publicity and other activities, which has continuously improved the environmental awareness and ability of teachers and students in the school. Get close to nature and increase your knowledge. Every spring, the school organizes social practice activities according to the age characteristics of students, such as happy outing in Grade One, meteorological observation in Grade Two, and sewage treatment investigation in Grade Three. Every grade has a fixed activity course. Strong experience in important seasons, Qingming memorial, Thanksgiving for Mother's Day, Chongyang respect for the elderly, children received education, increased knowledge, cultivated sentiment and experienced happiness in a series of activities.

Broken families and schools are blessed, and self-protection and self-help are established. Nowadays, children are always given the most careful protection at school and at home. However, parents and teachers cannot protect their children forever, so it is more important for children to learn to help themselves and help each other. Therefore, while teaching the knowledge of self-help and mutual aid, the school also conducts situational drills from time to time, so that the methods of self-help and mutual aid can be put into the mind, so that children can calmly cope with problems and protect themselves.

Break the cultivation of coquettish, establish the temper of character. The ancients said: "Those who have achieved great things in ancient times are not only talented, but also determined to persevere." There is an unwritten rule in our school that children are responsible for cleaning the environment inside and outside the classroom. Many parents didn't understand it at first, but when they saw their children grow up, they were relieved because they learned to take responsibility. The school also insists on organizing 4-6 grade students to carry out activities such as hiking and tea picking every year, so that children can get exercise during the activities. Take hiking as an example. According to different grades, some students even have to walk for two and a half hours, and then they have to carry out soil and water conservation surveys, which is also a traditional social activity project of the school. Through teamwork and teamwork, children not only experienced the hardships of labor, but also strengthened teamwork and tempered their strong will. Schools and parents have formed a joint educational effort to help children grow into healthy and sunny social people.
