Chapter 736 Scores are important, but teaching and educating people is even more important!
When Mrs. Si heard what the child said, she did not rush to deny it, but observed it carefully.
The child was like a puppet on strings, controlled by the mother's instructions, mechanically repeating the actions requested by the mother.
Mrs. Si frowned and didn't feel comfortable going up to say anything.
That is someone else's child. If outsiders intervene directly, there will be no good results.
This is a complex issue, and hasty and face-to-face intervention will cause many chain reactions, and it is easy to do everything wrong.
The full name of this classmate in Alice's class is Min Lian.
Before Alice transferred to another school and entered the class, she was the child who firmly ranked first. This is inseparable from Mother Lianlian's spoon-feeding education.
After Alice came, in last month's monthly exam, the first place was changed, and it was Alice who got perfect marks.
The first-grade exams are not that difficult. They are not as difficult as those taken twenty years later. The Chinese language is not that difficult and requires a lot of reading comprehension.
In the first grade these days, many subjects are basic knowledge, Chinese, and mathematics, each worth 100 points.
Since their primary school is the Primary School Affiliated to Longda University, English is an additional subject.
In fact, in primary schools these days, except for top primary schools in big cities and private bilingual schools, no school can learn English.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
Many people only start learning English in junior high school.
Even if you start learning English in third grade, it will be the result of educational reforms many years later.
I also learned basic knowledge, letters and simple words.
It is completely different from what the children of later generations will learn!
In last month's monthly exam, Min Lian got an English score of 99 because she wrote a word wrong, and her overall score was one point less than Alice's, ranking second.
This incident caused an uproar in Lian Lian's mother's heart.
It is said that I even went to the English teacher to check the paper to see if it was marked incorrectly.
Originally, Min Lian and Alice were sitting at the same table, and the two girls quite cherished each other.
Because of this incident, we got into trouble.
On Monday, Alice came home from school, feeling depressed.
Louis asked about the situation, but it was beyond his ability. He couldn't understand little Loli's thinking, nor did he understand Lianlian's desire for her daughter to become a phoenix.
After hearing this, Mrs. Si looked at Tang Linlang next to her and asked:
"Linlang, do you still remember the time when you were competing with Letian when you were a child?"
Tang Linlang nodded and pursed her lips: "Remember! Why don't you remember?"
"I was not a smart kid to begin with, and my parents were both teachers at the time."
"They didn't know me clearly, they thought I was very smart, and they put high pressure on me to suppress me and let me learn."
"It just so happens that I fail Lotte every time. They always use this as an excuse."
"As time passed, I couldn't resist my parents, so I vented my anger on Lotte, who was kind to me."
"I was too young and ignorant at that time, so I simply found an outlet for my emotions."
"Lotte is also unjust. Her kindness to me makes me dare to treat her wantonly."
"The more I treat Lotte badly, the more my parents will look down on me."
"I think I'm not good at studying, I have a bad temper, and I can't control my squeamishness. I can't compare to Lotte in any way."
"Then I wanted to hurt Lotte even more and resented my parents' high pressure."
After hearing this, Lewis was also shocked:
"Sure enough, your Oriental thinking is indeed a little different from ours!"
Mrs. Si laughed beside her: "You don't understand what the little girl is thinking."
After saying that, she turned to look at Alice and asked:
"Do you cherish Min Lian as a good friend?"
Alice nodded: "Yeah! She is a very kind person, but she is relatively cowardly and does not dare to disobey her parents at all."
"Actually, she is often depressed alone, and she always cries secretly."
"When I first came to the class, I was unfamiliar with everything. She was very patient and helped me a lot."
"Since the last monthly exam, I have lost her as a friend. I am very sad."
"I even thought about this month's monthly exam, if I'm just a little bit behind, I should take a step back!"
"No!" Mrs. Si didn't agree with this idea:
"Alice, my grandmother is not denying your kindness."
"You are also a baby, you can't be too sensible, do you understand?"
"It's normal for little babies to have emotions and tempers. It doesn't necessarily mean that they are well-behaved and sensible."
"Grandma, I hope you feel more comfortable. Excellent is excellent. You have the courage to be yourself."
"You gave her a pass this month. What if the one who got first place was the previous third place?"
"What if she makes a mistake and goes further back?"
"As long as you are not number one, Mother Lianlian will not stop to criticize and teach you."
"The problem is not with you, but with Mother Lianlian."
"She will not stop her high pressure on the child until she realizes that Min Lian is an ordinary child."
Alice was confused. She understood but failed to understand:
"Then Grandma, what should I do?"
Mrs. Si looked at Tang Linlang, and the grandfather and grandson smiled knowingly.
…
Longda Primary School suddenly added an interesting additional question.
Every evening before school, the teacher will assign an extracurricular question and ask the children to ask their parents or elders around them to answer the question correctly.
Of course, I don’t force it, and I won’t count the points during the exam.
There are classes for every class from grades 1 to 5.
At first, no one cared about it and didn’t care about the questions. It had nothing to do with exam-oriented education anyway.
The next day, the teacher just announced the answers in class to see which student got it right.
At first, only Alice got it right and was praised by the whole class.
For a long time afterwards, it was Alice who took this matter seriously and was praised every day.
The aura of attention in the class, grade, and school began to rest on Alice's head, and she gained a lot of envy.
Finally, other children took the initiative to compete, and many parents were alerted and began to participate.
The answers began to vary, and it was hard to say whether they were right or wrong.
However, the teacher did not discourage any students, but praised them for their willingness to participate, and asked those who did not participate not to feel pressure.
Mother Lianlian is one of those people who will not waste time and energy on such useless exercises.
However, as more and more children participate, this strong atmosphere of solving a mystery has become everyone’s expectation every day!
Because there is no pressure of scores, it is just a competition. Everyone is like opening a blind box, waiting for the answers to be announced in the first lesson every day.
Then, look at who got it right and hope that you are also right.
If it is not correct, children will automatically feel a sense of loss and the desire to keep working hard to get stronger.
After that, I just work hard to get the question correct tomorrow.
Lian Lian's mother has no interest in doing this kind of thing, but Min Lian has been participating in it.
The number of times she got it right was few and the number of times she was wrong was high, but she still enjoyed it because there was no pressure from scores.
One day, the principal finally announced his purpose at the teachers' meeting:
"Our education cannot be based on scores only, but must recognize the differences of children."
"Grades are important, but teaching and educating people is even more important!"
"Let children learn passively and turn them into active exploration."
"This attempt was very effective and allowed me to see the children's subjective initiative."
"Although the additional questions are a little more difficult, in the process, many children still solved the problems with their clever little minds."
"I have decided to add an additional question during the monthly exam. However, the score will not be counted, but participation will be important."
"The idea of asking the question is the same as before, and there is more than one answer."
"We need to test the true level of children and see what their subjective initiative and brain intelligence are like without standardized thinking!"
When Mother Lianlian heard the principal’s decision, her whole body felt like she was struck by lightning!
She never tutored her daughter on the additional questions because she didn't care and thought they wouldn't count in her score anyway.
Chapter completed!
