Core tip: This summer vacation is a special holiday for many primary and secondary school students. In late July, the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and the General Office of the State Council issued the Opinions on Further Reducing the Homework Burden and Off-campus Training Burden of Students in the Compulsory Education Stage, which requires that students' excessive homework burden be reduced and the off-campus training behavior be comprehensively regulated. In the face of "extra time", how to arrange more reasonable arrangements for primary and secondary school students? How does planning make sense?
Delight in reading to warm the home
One starry night, he watched over the fields, the fan in his hand gently shaking. The newly produced rice is next to each other, and the starlight shines on it, some of them shine, like a layer of water droplets..." At 20 o'clock on August 18, Hao Hao sat down at the desk with his mother Huang Ling on time again and read a book together, and tonight they read Ye Shengtao's "Scarecrow". After reading for 30 minutes, the mother and son will summarize their reading experience together, and then punch in the "Happy Reading Warm home action" mini program sponsored by the Fujian Provincial Children's Library, a habit they have insisted on for nearly a month.
Hao Hao is a second-grade primary school student, and the "double reduction" policy has introduced, so that he has a lot of free time at once. However, Huang Ling was anxious: "The child is about to enter the third grade when school starts, and the teacher recommends reading more in the summer, the key is how to read?" ”
"Read 30 minutes a day, 3 books a month, and love to read all my life." The 21st session of "Reading warms up the family" invites 30 pairs of parent-child families to complete the 30-day reading challenge together. In the WeChat circle of friends, Haohao's mother saw the "recruitment post" released by the Fujian Provincial Children's Library and did not hesitate to sign up.
What makes Huang Ling feel happy is that the "Happy Reading Warm Home Action" is not simply to let parents take their children to read, but by professional reading teachers in the WeChat group to recommend books suitable for parents and children to read, and guide parents how to let children gradually fall in love with reading through parent-child co-reading, thus building a long-term family reading atmosphere.
"In the past, because I was busy at work, I wanted to brush my mobile phone and watch dramas when I returned home, and my children were entrusted to the teachers of the custodial institution or training institution. However, through the 'Happy Reading Warm Home Action', I found that the child has grown up slowly, has his own views on many problems, and if he does not grow up in time, the generation gap will become deeper and deeper. Nowadays, every day after work, Huang Ling will put down her mobile phone at the agreed time and read a book with her children or choose their favorite books to read together.
Not only that, Huang Ling found that in addition to the "Happy Reading Warm Home Action", the Fujian Provincial Children's Library also held a "Reading Club on the Cloud" activity, inviting famous artists to bring good books from time to time to tell children a variety of interesting stories: popular science writer Jiang Hong took his children to "travel" to ancient times to explore the evolution and extinction of species; mathematical fairy tale writer Lu Shengyi took his children to read comics while looking for mathematics in life; astrophysicist Sun Zhengfan led his children to explore the secrets of the universe together...
"The books recommended by the famous artists are vivid and interesting, and gradually, Hao Hao began to look for these books in the library and bookstore to read, and his summer life was enriched." Huang Ling said happily.
"Some people say that summer is the time to overtake in curves. In fact, summer is the time for children to establish good learning habits and living habits. He Qingli, who is responsible for reading services at the Fujian Provincial Children's Library, believes that in today's electronic products that almost reconstruct the ecology of children's childhood, parent-child reading has a special significance, and parents can use the holiday to read children's literature with their children, so as to cultivate children's good habits of lifelong reading.
Exercise fitness
The 12-year-old soldier will be in the sixth grade in the new semester, and this year's summer vacation homework has been reduced by half compared with previous years. Therefore, he liked the military, so he asked his mother to report himself a 14-day military summer camp to enjoy it.
Every morning at 6:30, the military trumpet sounded. The soldier jumped out of bed, washed up, and went for a run with his friends, ate breakfast, and then went back to the dormitory to tidy up the housework.
The morning military skills training is his favorite part, first aid, boxing, queue exercises, teaching gun use rules... During the rehearsal, although the sun was blazing overhead, he did not cry out a bitter word. After a short lunch break, the young students entered the culture class. Military defense and historical knowledge are all good tricks for soldiers. Because he usually read a lot of military books, the class questions and answers naturally did not bother him. Occasionally, at 11 o'clock in the evening, the whistle would be blown to assemble urgently, nervous and exciting, and the soldiers felt as if they had really grown up in the barracks.
Because of his excellent performance, the soldiers were selected as squad leaders and were rated as excellent cadets when they ended the camp. He told reporters that this military training camp only had the push-up project in the physical fitness assessment, and he could not achieve the standard curved arm support at a ninety-degree angle, and he had to practice more when he went home.
Returning from the military summer camp, the soldiers still continued the good habit of going to bed early and getting up early, and folded the quilt on their beds into "tofu blocks", and the back that was once pressed a little bent by the heavy school bag was also very straight. What moved her mother Zhang Fan the most was that during the training, the son deliberately applied to the instructor to look at his mother's WeChat circle of friends, and saw that his mother and father went to climb the Baiyun Cave together on the weekend, and they knew that their mother "began to lose weight.". Back home, the soldiers specially gave the jump rope prize they had won at summer camp to their mother.
In fact, the intimate mother-child relationship between bingbing and his mother has also experienced ups and downs. Zhang Fan told reporters that due to the high academic pressure, and the children of colleagues and neighbors around them are tuition, parents can be said to be wrapped up in social pressure, and they also follow the trend to send their children to cram schools, afraid of being left behind. In the past, Bing Bing had three online language and culture classes a week, and two English tutors outside the school, which almost squeezed out all of his spare time. The child once had a sense of boredom and thought that learning was for the exam, so there was often a conflict at home.
As a parent, Zhang Fan is anxious and has also beaten his children. Later, she read some children's psychology books and tried to re-look at some of his behaviors from the child's point of view, so that she could slowly understand the child's hardships and helplessness, adjust her communication style, and ease the tense atmosphere.
This summer, the "double reduction" policy was introduced, Zhang Fanchang was relieved, if everyone does not study ahead of the program, then they do not have to tighten the strings so tightly, and the family can spend more time together. "If the child can spend more time studying the defense and military knowledge he likes, maybe the motivation to learn will be stronger."
Step into nature
"Teacher Xiaodou, Teacher Xiaodou, I found a bug, what kind of bug is it?"
"It's a spade, it's a combative insect, its jaw looks like antlers, and if you accidentally touch it, you'll get blood from their 'shovels'!"
……
On the evening of July 31st, a special summer activity kicked off in Fuzhou Gaogaishan Park, and Ogawa, who was a junior high school student, left his parents for the first time to follow a professional nature science teacher, night view the forest, and explore nocturnal insects.
"After the introduction of the 'double reduction' policy, quality education has been mentioned again." Ogawa's mother searched the Internet and found that there are many non-governmental institutions for quality education such as art, sports, and thinking. "In fact, we also hope that children will be exposed to more knowledge that they cannot reach in the classroom during the summer, and cultivate the good qualities of independence, cheerfulness, self-confidence and tolerance in an edutainment learning atmosphere."
In the end, Ogawa's mother chose "nature education". "Today's children lack a connection to nature, which also leads to problems such as addiction to mobile games and poor resilience." On a WeChat public account called "Enjoy Nature Parent-child Education", Xiaochuan's mother saw such a passage and was deeply touched.
"In the past holidays, children always ran at both ends of the training class and at home, and whenever they had time, they liked to brush their mobile phones and play games, and there was no time to participate in outdoor activities. But adolescent children can't say no, making parents both worried and anxious. "In the future, Ogawa's parents decided to take advantage of this summer to change their way of life together, so that the children can walk out of the study and into nature.
"The nature education method is to bring children into the wonderful nature by means of games, release the nature and imagination of participants, experience the pure beauty of nature, arouse children's attention and love for nature, and re-establish the connection between man and nature..." Lin Ming, head of "Enjoy Nature Parent-child Education", told reporters that after the outbreak of the new crown epidemic, more and more people began to reflect and pay attention to the relationship between man and nature, and many nature education institutions have also launched a wealth of popular science courses. For example, night insect watching courses, bird watching courses, fish watching courses, tree watching courses and so on.
After completing the summer homework, his parents let Xiaochuan pack his bags and follow professional teachers through the major parks or suburban mountains and forests in Fuzhou to find traces of various creatures, and this state of life is also what Xiaochuan has always longed for.
"This summer, I have known many animals and plants that I only saw in books, and those difficult and difficult knowledge have suddenly come to life. We are equal to them, and we should cherish them. Without them, the world wouldn't be colorful. In his diary, Ogawa wrote.
