Qin Fengju, Wucheng County Experimental Middle School
Teachers who have been class teachers all know the importance of the work of a class teacher, and they also know that the work of a class teacher is not easy to do. But those of us who are class teachers took over the work of class teachers because they like the children, so don’t mention the hardship and tiredness, and just put your enthusiasm, love and patience into it. In addition to actively cooperating with the school and grade level, we will do a good job in all aspects. In addition to their work, the most important thing is to focus on the intellectual education of students, so that top students become better, middle-class students become outstanding, and students with learning difficulties become middle-class students. Only in this way can our class teachers satisfy the needs of the school, parents, and students. needs.
At the end of August 2017, I was transferred from a township middle school to __Experimental Middle School, the best middle school in the county. Due to work needs, I took over as the head teacher of Class 10 of the eighth grade. New environment, new colleagues, new students... Faced with everything in front of me, I have no other choice but to bend down and work hard. It is really God's reward for hard work. The class I led actually went from the first place to the first place. The person ranked third from the bottom (22nd in grade) in the next month's exam improved to the fifth in grade in the second semester's promotion exam. How did my class counterattack in less than a year?
Maintain normalcy? Smooth transition
As a class teacher, taking over a new class halfway, without a comprehensive understanding of the class situation, you should not make drastic changes in the class according to your own wishes. We will make appropriate adjustments after we fully understand the situation. At this time, when the class is handed over, the new class teacher is similar to the "stepmother" in real life. Students have a preconceived mentality. Students will compare all aspects of the new class teacher with the previous class teacher. At this time, the first thing we have to do is to let the students learn from Accept us in your heart.
At the beginning, I followed all the class rules, class cadres, class representatives, and student seating arrangements as in the previous semester. At the same time, I told the children: "All your pasts have been reset to zero. I don't care about you." What kind of student you were in the past, I only care about what kind of student you are now. Please rest assured, students, I will not inquire about your past through various methods. I only believe in my eyes, and I also believe in the eyes of my classmates. "One month passed quickly. Based on the actual situation, we only modified a few class rules and made only individual adjustments to student seating. The vast majority of students performed well and our teachers and students got along very harmoniously.
2. Find the reasons? Implement precise policies
It is normal for classes that were taken over halfway to have unsatisfactory academic performance. The key is that when facing the results, we must carefully analyze where the gap lies. Where and how to shorten the gap is what a class teacher should do. Faced with the results of the first monthly exam, I conducted a comprehensive analysis. Through the analysis, I know that my class’s Chinese, English, geography, and biology are pretty good in these four subjects. They are all in the top 10 of the grade. What is not ideal is that Mathematics, physics, politics, especially mathematics and physics are all the last in the grade, and there is a big gap between them and other classes. The number of outstanding students is quite good, the rest are students with learning difficulties, and there are almost no average students. What is the reason? I found the teacher, class cadres, class representatives, and students to get to know each other one by one. I learned that most students in these two subjects have a weak foundation, and their homework after class is either searched online or copied. Students cannot complete homework independently, which is the direct cause of students with learning difficulties. Once the cause is found, we should take measures. Suhomlinsky said in "Suggestions for Teachers", "For children who are lagging behind in learning, they must be allowed to persist in achieving the goals proposed and answer exercises independently." Two teachers of mathematics and physics increased the number of classes Pre-study is intensive in advance, and teaching is based on learning in class, and we try our best to make every student gain something. Homework is arranged in layers, a group-one plan is implemented within the group, and there is fair competition outside the group. At the same time, after each exam, I ask students to write down the goals they want to achieve next time, and the scores for each subject should be realistic and specific.
At the first class meeting every Monday morning, students take out their goals and check whether they are getting closer to the goals; then make a weekly plan "This week is very important"; and finally recite collectively: "I am an outstanding student" "As a student, I listen carefully to the teacher's explanations and classmates' answers during class; after class, I review in time and complete my homework independently. I believe that I will be an excellent student in the next week." You will have a plan and demand yourself as an "excellent student", and then become a true outstanding student.
3. Open your heart? Reveal your true feelings
Junior high school students are in a period of "physical and mental fusion", especially among eighth grade students. The education circle calls it the "psychological weaning period". Eighth grade students have entered puberty. The curiosity and desire to explore brought about by puberty's sexual maturity also bring many troubles to the children. These troubles need to be talked about by the children. The third period of self-study "for the elderly" every Friday afternoon The class "Talk from the Heart" came into being. In the "Talk from the Heart", we can understand the psychological dynamics of each student in time. Some "Talk from the Heart" are not a problem at all in the eyes of our teachers, but for It is a big problem for students, which requires us to look at the problem from the student's perspective and consider the problem with empathy. The more students struggle with such problems, the more they need the teacher's help. Some problems require me to have a heart-to-heart talk with the students; some require me to solve them with the teachers or parents; some problems require taking into account the students' face and keeping the students' confidentiality. By speaking "from the bottom of my heart", I have narrowed the distance between teachers and students, made our teacher-student relationship more harmonious, and also enabled me to better handle class problems.
Four skillful borrowing activities? Concentration
As a class teacher, you should actively lead students to participate in various activities held by the school and grade, such as "Singing Competition", " "Gymnastics Competition" is the best time to cultivate the class's sense of honor and collectiveness, and it is also the best window for us to show our class management concepts to the outside world. Not to mention the "school sports meeting" has these functions, it is also the best way to cultivate students' willpower. Good timing. In April 2018, when we were preparing for the sports meeting, there were extracurricular activities every afternoon. Athletes had to train for their own events, and non-athletes also had to practice together every day. Non-athlete boys run 1500 meters every day, and girls run 1000 meters every day. In this way, firstly, they take the opportunity to strengthen their own physical fitness, and secondly, it also allows them to experience the hardships of athletes, and at the same time, all students understand that The achievement of class honors is earned by athletes through sweat. In this sports meeting, our class won the first place in the grade with an absolute advantage, which made the students more united and progressive in the following activities and studies!
Individual competitions, such as "Calligraphy Competition", "Poetry Competition", "I am the Word Memory King", etc. Although only one or two students in the class can participate in the competition, we prepare this kind of competition. All students participate in the activities. In fact, our corresponding teachers only need to spend 10 minutes a day to prepare. On the surface, it seems to affect the progress of the new class. However, the participation of all students not only allows students to experience the joy of participation, but also has a positive impact on their lives. The impact may not only be immediate, but may also be lasting, long-lasting or even lifelong. Some students may fall in love with calligraphy or poetry or memory. This is the ultimate meaning of our participation in the competition.
Five schools cooperate? ***Grow together
Family education is the backing of school education, and the support of parents is the prerequisite for the smooth work of the class teacher, so we must do our best to win Parents, please support us and let the Parent Committee play its role as the backbone. When it comes to educating children, we need to give parents some specific and feasible suggestions, such as: try to spend more time with your children on weekends; participate in more outdoor sports with your children; communicate more with your children to understand their children's thoughts; and control your children on weekends. The time for children to surf the Internet and play with mobile phones; ensure that children have a lunch break at noon, and the rest at night cannot exceed 10 o'clock; parents who have time should try to take their children to and from school. In order for parents to control their emotions when disciplining their children, it is recommended that parents read the Parental Rules every day. These thoughtful suggestions are easy for parents to accept.
I usually see educational and inspirational articles and promptly send them to the parent group to encourage them. With the strong support of the family committee, my class carried out the "Head Teacher and Parents ***Read a Book" activity. In the first semester, we *** read "Positive Discipline", and in the second term, we *** read "Unhealthy Discipline". "Violent Communication", on the way to educate children, our teachers and parents grow up together and become more determined and confident in their children's education.
An excellent class cannot be separated from the full cooperation of the head teacher and teachers, the efforts of the students themselves, and the strong support of parents and friends! I hope every student will bloom a flower of his own on the road of life!
