Fortunately, the moon gave face, but on a cloudy day, after nine o'clock, I stuck my head out and walked with my son in the playground to enjoy the moon.
"mom! Look! The moon is out! The moon is like a moon cake! " My son suddenly looked up and found the round moon.
"Do you like moon cakes? Really, what is it like? " I also want to know what he will say.
"Like jiaozi." God, why are they all eating? I am not reconciled. Keep asking-
"What else is it like?"
"Like the wheels of a car." Yes, that's an interesting answer.
"What else?"
"I like it. . . . . . Like a big hole! " The son answered hesitantly.
"Big hole? Such a bright hole? This idea is really special! " This answer is very surprising. I don't like what he said like a hole. It seems to be a bad metaphor. All the holes are black. I wonder when he saw a big hole. But I don't mind. I hope it's my fault.

My "ignorance" almost killed the students' rich imagination. I still feel guilty about it.
I remember when I first started to work, one day, I was going to have a class on boats. When preparing lessons, in order to design a wonderful prologue, I racked my brains and suddenly looked up and saw the crescent moon outside the window, which seemed to be inspired. So, I waved my hand smartly in class and a crescent moon jumped onto the blackboard. Then, I asked the students, "What do you think this is?" They all say "the moon". Then, I can't wait to ask, "Children, what does this moon look like to you?" The students immediately became lively, some were whispering at the same table, some were whispering at the front and back tables, and some were talking to themselves. It seems that they are all excited. Comparing the answers, they must say "like a boat". At this time, I can naturally lead to the topic of "boat", how vivid it is! When I was secretly complacent about my cleverness, my classmates' answers made me blindsided. They say it's like a sickle and a hook. What is even more exasperating is that a greedy student said it was like a banana, but no one mentioned it was like a boat. In an instant, there was a nameless fire in my heart, and I said coldly, "Is that so?" Want to eat bananas? I don't think it's like it at all. " Then I blew it up again. I said, "What you say should be based on facts, and what you imagine should be reasonable. The teacher asked you to say what you look like, and you must first find out what you look like before you can say … "After venting my anger, I asked the children to observe the picture, but I drew another child on it, and they just said the answer I wanted" The curved moon is like a boat ". I took a long breath and finally led to the topic, and finally I can enter the next teaching session. When I entered the role of "teacher" with great interest, what about the students? Obviously not as excited as just now, everyone looked at me blankly.
After a long time, I gradually found that it seems that the children in our class are particularly "good" and never dare to "talk nonsense" in class. When reading the text, let them use their imagination, blend into the scene of the text, and read aloud with expressions; When talking about the text, they are required to tell the story vividly, but what they read and say is so pale and boring. Let them look at the pictures and talk. A word or two always pops out of their mouths, as if everything outside the picture is insulated from them.
At that time, I always felt that these children were "stupid", and they could master simple knowledge, but they could not digest it if the requirements were high. Unexpectedly, one day, the professor came to attend the class (he heard "complaints"). After class, if he realized something, he said to me, "Teacher Ye, you students are very obedient! Good cooperation. " (snickering: I trained strictly. However, children are so obedient that they often think and speak in the way you set them. They always feel that something is missing. Yes, your students lack imagination. I don't know if you have noticed that when you let students use their imagination to speak, they are all talking about the knowledge in the textbook, or they are simply the product of your suggestion. " I am anxious to defend myself: "I also attach great importance to cultivating imagination." However, I asked them to consider book knowledge, classroom learning content and ... "The tutor smiled and lent me a copy of Psychology of Pupils. That night, I read the book and looked at it. I felt that the weight of the book was getting heavier and heavier, which made me breathless. I am cultivating my imagination, which is simply killing children's imagination. I only blame myself for being so numb and the children for being "stupid". In fact, it is my narrow concept that books are supreme knowledge that harms them. Then I changed to a new school. Up to now, the children's vacant eyes still remind me all the time.
I have accepted freshmen for some time. Once I drew a circle and asked them, "What is that?" Children's answers can be rich, some say "like abacus beads and the sun", some say "like the moon and a ball", and some say "like a ball". What a strange imagination! All this is hard-won. Once "ignorant", I learned to cherish children's curiosity, guide them to observe, encourage them to think positively and open the door to imagination. Einstein said imagination is more important than knowledge. Today, I deeply understand the true meaning of this sentence. Answer time: June 27, 2009 18: 39.
