The most beautiful encounter, the best version of yourself

Inscription: "There were six pennies all over the ground, but he looked up and saw the moon."

? —— Maugham, "The Moon and Sixpence"

During the winter vacation, I briefly read "The Moon and Sixpence", one of Maugham's masterpieces. The protagonist Strickland abandons superior material conditions and a happy family, and comes to Paris alone, living an extremely embarrassing life. , but have been chasing the dream of being a painter... To be honest, in reality, every middle-aged person of us has to face the life of having seniors and juniors, as well as various pressures at work. If we want to break through the bottleneck, It is really difficult to reflect more on your own life. At this moment, when you meet someone who can break your thinking, change your habits, and achieve your future, we call him a noble person; at this moment, when you meet a group of people, they ignite your passion, awaken your self-esteem, and support you in everything you do. , we call it: team.

Fortunately, I can still enjoy the encouragement and guidance of three teams today. Inspired by the three spirits, I, who have entered my forties, understand the preciousness of time, the importance of knowledge, the power of a team, and think about my future life... Looking back on the three years of professional study, I have struggled and gained. , there is also self-blame and a little regret...

Read to lay a solid foundation

Derek Bok, former president of Harvard University, said: "If you think the cost of education is too high, try ignorance "The price"; some people say that your temperament hides the books you have read, the roads you have traveled and the people you have read. It can be said that reading and learning should be a lifelong weapon for a person to grow and mature and not be defeated by time. As a teacher, I am well aware of the rapid iteration of knowledge and the fierce technological updates. In order to satisfy students' thirst for knowledge and curiosity, I forced myself to read and study... At first, I just read some newspapers and magazines related to teaching. For example, "Primary School Chinese Teacher", "Primary School Chinese", "Primary School Chinese Newspaper"...

These allow me to understand the most cutting-edge teaching trends in primary school Chinese, and I can be targeted when teaching. But I feel that I am impatient when things happen, have no specific methods, have a single understanding of texts, superficial communication with students, and rough education of children... I think the fundamental way to solve these difficult problems requires looking for answers from books. In November 2017, I was fortunate to join the online teacher study and start my own in-depth learning journey. I read "Teacher's Reading Map" by Wei Zhiyuan, "Twelve Keywords of Education" by Teacher Hao Xiaodong, and "A Chinese Teacher's Story" by Teacher Guo Dongyang. "Professional Road"... In June 2018, I also started my own road of listening to books, "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and "The Ordinary World"... I used my spare time to recharge... During this period, I paid attention to excellent public accounts , every briefing of the three, every inspirational story in the group, and excellent TV programs such as "Focus Interview", "Host Competition", and "Chinese Poetry Conference" recommended by Director Chen, I will also keep my appointment And... gradually, I found that I had the professional confidence to be a teacher, because behind me stood several books that deeply inspired me. Perhaps reading cannot provide a specific method to solve the current difficulties, but it can provide a This kind of understanding, on the basis of a high degree of understanding, is possible for competent educational practice to take place.

Classroom promotes progress

Reading is useful, but no famous teacher has strong professional ability by sitting in his study and reading a lot of books. "What you learn on paper will eventually become shallow, but you will definitely know that you have to practice it." Education requires more practice. I still remember the days when I was preparing for the IPO observation class on April 9, 2019. I thought that after countless experiences, I should be calm and calm, and I should be able to handle it with ease, but the reality is far from as simple as I imagined, Yang The principal polished it for me over and over again, and the county teaching researcher Tian Chunyan also came to the site to provide guidance time and time again. However, they originally thought that the teaching design was perfect, but after listening to it, they were able to point out countless inappropriate points, which was a waste of time. The lesson plans designed by Zhili were rejected again and again and abandoned again and again. I was really in pain, and the tears just flowed down...

In order to relieve my pressure, Director Chunyan and Principal Yang repeatedly persuaded us that as long as we persisted in completing the observation class, we would be rewarded. I knew that I represented Yangxin, a team of primary school Chinese teachers. In the pain of repeated setbacks and endless anxiety, I Still came through again and again. I will teach it again and change a group of students. I will carefully consider everyone's opinions and ponder over and over again, striving to make my teaching design based on the development of students and in line with the characteristics of the Chinese subject. In this way, one class was taught 13 times. Trial lectures over and over are by no means repetition, but the "nirvana" of teaching. Finally, I was recognized by everyone on the stage of the city's primary school Chinese seminar. Teaching cannot provide high-quality lessons every day. In daily classroom, I prefer to learn and grow together with the children.

Since one semester, I have been teaching first-grade students. Apart from the boring study of Chinese Pinyin, I have read more than 60 picture book stories with the children; I have recited more than 30 classic children's songs... There is no simple preaching in the teaching, so that Students are immersed in the story and enjoy life growth while reading! I thought: "The best classroom must first be carefully prepared by the teacher, allowing learning as a whole, breaking the students' existing understanding, allowing learning to happen, research to happen, and knowledge to emerge from the process..." With the original intention, Doing eternal things is my eternal pursuit on the road of education...

Writing prompts reflection

Thanks to the three platforms, I have developed the habit of daily recording, so that I have It is the habitat of an educator’s soul. Classroom reflections, educational narratives, parents’ gossip... all entered my writing horizons. The QQ platform, educational blogs, and software have all left my footprints. I dare not say how perfect every piece of work is, but I guarantee that I will live a fulfilling life every day.

Writing every night has become a way for me to record my life. Because of this, I gradually found that my educational stories became richer, my educational vision became sharper, and my educational thoughts became more determined. The educational landscape has become broader...

? Teacher Dong Qing made this comment at the perfect conclusion of the "Host Contest": "The five words 'I am the host' are two minutes. You can explain it clearly in three minutes! This is a belief that those of us who have chosen this profession will spend our lives practicing! "As a teacher, I will also spend my whole life practicing my belief in education - forever. With a humble heart, think of the wise when you see them, and do eternal things with your original intention...
