Ma Yun's first stop at Qiandao Lake went to Zitong Town Central Primary School in Chun 'an County. My teacher Fang Xing is currently the principal of Zitong Town Central Primary School.
Ma Yun is there because Zitong Town Primary School is one of the first five pilot schools in China under the "Ma Yun Rural Boarding School Plan". As we all know, Mr. Ma cares about education. Two days ago, at the meeting of the International Federation of Principals, Mr. Ma even voiced his voice for basic education, saying that the state should tilt educational resources to the basic grassroots, put resources in kindergartens, primary schools and middle schools, and not excessively put them in universities.
Teacher Ma brought his superior resources to the grassroots level, while my teacher Fang Xing, he has always been at the grassroots level.
It was sixteen or seventeen years ago that I met Mr Fang Xing. At that time, I was still in primary school in the village. The conditions are poor and there is a shortage of teaching resources. It is a blessing for us children to meet an excellent teacher.
It has been 2 1 century, but our hometown has not been opened to traffic, so we can only go to town by boat. Every year, a group of young teachers from cities come to school. The conditions were very difficult. I believe that few young people are willing to come. However, whether it is the arrangement of the organization or other reasons, in short, they are here, and so is Teacher Fang Xing.
Before Fang Xing officially became my Chinese teacher, the Chinese class in our class was really unlucky. Before each class, it is estimated that all the students at that time will guess in their hearts which teacher will teach us this Chinese class, or whether it will directly become a self-study class, just like me. The Chinese class in our class is too chaotic, which will become a teaching accident in the school.
It is also in this crisis that Teacher Fang Xing officially took over our Chinese class. (If I remember correctly, when Mr. Fang Xing first came to our school, he was a third-grade head teacher and a Chinese teacher. )
When Mr. Fang Xing first appeared in our classroom, I thought he was so handsome, especially his flowing bangs, handsome sunshine and youthful vitality. Indeed, at that time, he should be in his mid-twenties, just young.
By the way, I wonder if when he came to our school from the city, he was in the same state as when I went to Tibet to teach a few years ago.
After class, I found that Fang Xing's handwriting was really beautiful. Because I also practiced calligraphy since I was a child, but I practiced it myself before, and I didn't practice it systematically.
Many students in our class are good at writing, and everyone admires Mr. Fang Xing. At the same time, Mr. Fang Xing also sent us pens and copybooks like a treasure hunt, and organized us to practice calligraphy during lunch break, so Mr. Fang Xing became my first teacher on the road of calligraphy.
Until now, the Copybook for calligraphy Fang Xing gave me is still on my desk, and the title page says "Fang Xing Collection". I remember teacher Fang Xing specifically told me not to lose it. This is his most precious copybook and should be returned to him after practice. But I didn't return it. I've been carrying it all these years. Every time I look at it, I seem to have returned to the small classroom of that year, practicing pen writing, surrounded by my favorite teacher Fang Xing.
Later, it was not until high school that I was able to participate in various calligraphy competitions and win some awards. There is always a line of information beside the winning works, and the instructor is XXX, which makes me feel very funny. I don't know why I didn't join the calligraphy club. Every time I take my works to the county or the city to win prizes, the instructor writes their names. It's really strange that I haven't seen you guide me once.
Here I want to tell you, my calligraphy instructor: Fang Xing.
At present, Tik Tok has a lot of calligraphy displays, all kinds, and some display hollow characters, especially those that can be written into four-character idioms with one stroke, which are absolutely amazing.
When I was in primary school, Teacher Fang Xing also opened my eyes. At that time, our class was going to hold an ancient poetry contest. Teacher Fang Xing directly wrote four hollow words "Ancient Poetry Competition" on the blackboard, because I have been watching him write, and I absolutely admired it at that time. Even now, I haven't practiced this trick. I still have to write with a rag dipped in water first, and then draw with chalk, just like a child playing house.
Since the ancient poetry contest is mentioned, we have to talk about the learning trend of ancient poetry in our class. This trend, of course, is also brought up by teacher Fang Xing.
When I was a child, we also learned a few ancient poems in Chinese textbooks, but the number was limited and we could not get a good accumulation effect. As the essence of classical literature handed down by ancestors, reciting and learning ancient poems from childhood can improve our literary literacy, cultivate our sentiment, enrich our spiritual world and help to carry forward our traditional culture.
Well, it's a bit much, but it's true. The poems handed down today have experienced the vicissitudes of the times, and each poem has its own unique feelings, either patriotism, inspiration or philosophy of life, which are our precious spiritual food.
Practically speaking, reciting ancient poems is also very helpful for learning classical Chinese, not to mention the college entrance examination in the future. If you can export poetry in the future, it will definitely touch people's hearts. If you have accumulated enough, you can also attend the Chinese poetry conference.
I don't remember when it started. Teacher Fang Xing asked us to start reciting ancient poems, and finally organized an ancient poetry contest, which not only inspected reciting, but also required some understanding. Since then, there are 300 Tang poems in our class, which are memorized almost all the time except sleeping in class.
At that time, when we met to say hello, it was no longer: Have you eaten? But: did you recite it? How many songs did you recite? Children have a strong desire to win or lose, especially classmates, who always have to compete. In learning, it is certainly a good thing to have this indomitable spirit. In this way, this trend in our class is getting stronger and stronger.
A few months later, our ancient poetry contest was held as scheduled, and the scene was very intense, especially in the answering session, the speed of raising your hand, the strength of striking the table, and the smiling face full of youthful vitality. I think Mr. Fang Xing was quite satisfied with our class at that time.
A lot of things, after 16 years, have been forgotten. But I still remember the hard environment. Compared with now, at that time, we had nothing and the school infrastructure was not complete. The small playground doesn't even have a basketball stand, only two table tennis tables, which is one of our few entertainment projects.
Teacher Fang Xing's ball skills are very high, especially the chopping skills. In extracurricular activities, we always play table tennis with teacher Fang Xing, thinking that we can compete with masters and learn more skills. Teacher Fang Xing is also willing to play with us children. After all, abusing us is also very rewarding, hahaha-
I watched Liu Tong's I'm Waiting for Your Future some time ago. Liu Dazhi, the protagonist in the play, likes listening to music very much, but still uses old-fashioned tapes. My good friend Chen Tong brought the most advanced CD player from Hongkong to Dazhi, which became Dazhi's most precious gift.
I haven't even been to Liancheng several times in primary school, let alone those new things. Teacher Fang Xing is the coolest and coolest to me. I think he has everything. The first time I saw the CD player was at Mr Fang Xing's home.
Our school has a week of work-study program every year. This week, we will go to the tea garden to pick tea. For us children, although it will be a little tired, it is also a happy week. We can fly in the tea garden without sitting in the classroom and earn some pocket money, not to mention how happy we are.
Teacher Fang Xing will go to the tea garden with us every day, that is, at that time, with his CD player and an external small speaker, there are songs of Jay Chou and Adu on the hillside of the tea garden, and we all sing along. Don't get too excited about that scene.
Teacher Fang Xing also likes photography. At this time, he will definitely take his big SLR and snap the camera at us. Oh, no, Mr. Fang Xing may not be able to shoot snap at that time, because the SLR at that time was not digital, and film was needed, and the cost of snap was still too high.
Teacher Fang Xing's photography level is still quite high. After all, after experiencing the film age, every photo should be perfectly composed, and the shutter can only be pressed after the light and shadow are in focus. It is said that a group of photos taken for me and two other students at that time, the studio owner begged to hang on the wall for publicity, but Teacher Fang Xing refused.
In the tea garden, while picking tea, we also like to laugh and play. After all, we are all children, and it is our nature to love to play. Teacher Fang Xing also likes to be among us, sometimes listening to music and sometimes taking pictures, and then showing his kind smile in his twenties.
On that day, Teacher Fang Xing suddenly asked us if we insisted on doing one thing every day. We joked that we did, eating and sleeping, haha. Teacher Fang Xing hopes that the students in our class can insist on doing one thing every day: writing a sentence diary.
It's not that homework is compulsory, it depends on our consciousness. Teacher Fang Xing said that he would not come to supervise us every day, nor would he come to see what we wrote every day. It can be anything you want to record.
It seems simple to insist on writing only one sentence every day, but it is not easy for us who are still very playful.
Teacher Fang Xing, as he said at the beginning, really didn't come to check and didn't even ask. However, in an evening class a few months later, I had forgotten what angered Mr. Fang Xing. After scolding us, I suddenly mentioned every day and asked who we were sticking to every day. Give him a hand.
I remember very clearly that only another classmate and I raised our hands. The scene is very embarrassing. Teacher Fang Xing may have guessed the result, so let the other students stand up and reflect. He turned and left us. I don't know if he was disappointed in us.
How simple it is to say a word every day and promise that the teacher will stick to it every day, but really, without the supervision of the teacher, can we be self-disciplined and can we stick to it? Although we only write one sentence every day, when we really want to write, we still think about what to write, which leads to thinking about this day, but it exercises our thinking and summing-up ability. I believe it will lay the foundation for our writing in the end. It can be said that it is really multifaceted.
Now that I think about it, we really failed Fang Xing's good intentions. I really think that Teacher Fang Xing has done her best as a teacher. But when the master leads the door, practice really depends on the individual. Teacher Fang Xing also knows that he can't urge us all our lives. Through this incident, he also taught us the most profound lesson.
By the way, I don't know if the problem of wanting to be in a state every day comes from there, hahaha.
Teacher Fang Xing's classes are never confined to small classrooms, and classrooms are everywhere. I remember one time I charged my common sense teacher a sum of money, put all the money in a plastic cup and took the cup to find the common sense teacher. At that time, Mr. Fang Xing and the common sense teacher were on the playground together. When they saw the cup I was holding, they suddenly asked me: What is this cup made of? I was surprised to say plastic. He asked again: What is the nature of plastic? I'm talking about plasticity and ductility. Then he smiled, and by the way, he agreed.
Boy, I was really scared. I just finished learning the properties of plastics in the general knowledge class, but I haven't forgotten. Fortunately, I am quick-witted. Fortunately, I wasn't scared by teacher Fang Xing. My darling, I must be strong and be a student of teacher Fang Xing, otherwise I will be scared to death sooner or later. hahaha.
Many friends know that I have a dream of being a teacher since I was a child, and Teacher Fang Xing has given me enough opportunities. At that time, there were many non-key texts in Chinese textbooks. Teacher Fang Xing always threw the textbooks at me directly and said, you can give this text to everyone, and then Mr. Xiao Hu was born.
Ten years later, I really became a teacher Hu, although my class was in Shigatse, Tibet. I don't know what the students' first impression of me is. Do you think I'm handsome too, or do you think I'm particularly wordy? I spent three nights studying in the first class.
I dare not say what experience I have learned from teacher Fang Xing, but I am also trying to be a good teacher. I also like to take pictures of students and keep their beautiful moments. I also like talking with children, opening their hearts and paying attention to their physical and mental development. I also like to organize students to read, write and give speeches, so as to develop in a more comprehensive direction.
As a teacher, there may be no problem in class itself, but as a teacher, especially as a teacher friend who has formed a deep friendship with children, I failed. Because I stood up, I broke my promise to stay one more year, became a deserter, failed to accompany my children to graduate from junior high school, and ended my teaching career ahead of schedule. (I only taught in Tibet for one year and didn't renew my contract)
Compared with Mr Fang Xing, I am far behind. In the past ten years, I haven't had much contact with Mr. Fang Xing. It is said that he was later transferred back to the city, but a few years later, he returned to the most basic level. When he contacted again, Mr. Fang Xing was already the principal of Songcun Town Central Primary School. He saw the inspirational story of Xiao Changping's struggle with illness and his love for writing, and also saw the story of how Mr. Fang Xing encouraged him and helped him grow up step by step. I believe that Mr. Fang Xing must be Xiao Changping's favorite and most important story in his life. (The specific plot will not be unfolded. )
Later, until now, Mr. Fang Xing served as the principal of Zitong Town Central Primary School. As mentioned at the beginning, Zitong Town Primary School is now one of the first five pilot schools in China under the "Ma Yun Rural Boarding School Plan". I believe that Fang Xing has contributed a lot to being selected by Ma Yun Public Welfare Foundation.
Now the teachers and students living in Zitong Town have moved into new dormitories and started a new life. Parents no longer have to worry about their children's poor life and lack of warmth.
A student once said that I was a luminous body. Compared with Mr. Fang Xing, I am too weak. Teacher Fang Xing is the real illuminant. No matter where she is or which school she is in, she can always bring light and hope to the children and education there.
Many times, I dare not say that I am a student of Teacher Fang Xing, for fear of humiliating him.
But I have always been proud to be a student of Fang Xing.
