Meitu: Under the peach tree, Master Tortoise said his last words to the panda master who later became the Dragon Warrior in his Zen-like tone. Peach blossom petals are all over the trees, and it's raining. Master tortoise drifted away with the peach blossom rain all over the sky, disappeared, disappeared, drifted away ... and finally saw nothing. ...
At that moment, I felt the nothingness of life and the infinite and profound meaning of life. ...
Classic dialogue:
Yes, but no matter what you do, that seed will grow into a peach tree. You may want apples or oranges, but you can only get peaches, and that seed will still grow into a peach tree.
(2) Maybe it can, if you are willing to guide it, nourish it and believe in it.
(3) The power of faith is infinite. You can do it as long as you believe you can. As long as you firmly believe, anyone can become a "Dragon Warrior".
When you encounter difficulties or doubt your ability, the only thing you need is conviction and persistence.
This passage is just as the philosopher and writer Zhou said in the Seven Proverbs of Education: Education is growth, growth is the purpose, and there is no other purpose except growth. This argument was put forward by Rousseau. "Education is growth" simply expresses the original meaning of education, which is to make everyone's nature and innate ability grow healthily, rather than instilling external things such as knowledge into a container.
In reality, there are countless vivid examples of children as containers, tools and products on industrial production lines. There are often three or five mothers downstairs in the community where I live, leading the children who look like kindergarten to get together to enjoy the cool. After a while, they began to recite more ancient poems than their children and take more interest classes. The parents who are compared are passive, and their expressions seem to be facing great failure, and they will be cruel to catch up with the number of parts or products produced this month from now on.
At this time, these parents are arrogant. In fact, children are living individuals and immature adults. ) Children are containers. I want to pack 1000ml, never 800ml. Whether it should be packed, whether it will overflow, and whether it will damage the container due to the loading capacity.
In fact, because it violates the law that education is growth, it will definitely backfire in the end. As Master Oogway said: Yes, but no matter what you do, that seed will grow into a peach tree. You may want apples or oranges, but you can only get peaches, and that seed will still grow into a peach tree.
However, too many parents don't know that the purpose of education is to get students out of the slavery of reality, not to adapt to reality.
This is Cicero's famous saying. Today, the situation is just the opposite. Education is trying to do one thing, that is, to shape students with the goal of adapting to reality. It is of course necessary for people to live in society and adapt to reality, but this should not be the main purpose of education. Montaigne said: learning is not to adapt to the outside world, but to enrich yourself. Confucius also advocated that learning is a matter of "for oneself" rather than "being a man". Philosophers of all ages have emphasized that learning is to develop one's inner spiritual ability, so as to gain freedom in the face of external reality.
My niece is only in a small kindergarten class this year, and she is 3 years old. The current kindergarten fees are still relatively high, mainly because the current kindergartens and teachers regard students as an end rather than a means. No, after asking each child to pay a considerable fee every month, the kindergarten adopts the charging method of "substituting fees for fees", that is, if parents pay extra fees for calligraphy classes, dance classes and Olympic math classes every afternoon, they will take your children to a small classroom for training ... Those children who do not participate in these interest classes will be supervised by special teachers in the big classroom until after 3 pm.
Of course, these children who have paid for various interest classes are also taken care of by special teachers in small classrooms. "Take care of" these children who are only two or three years old to learn calligraphy (small hands can't hold pens at all) and learn Olympic Mathematics ... Children who are two or three years old learn Olympic Mathematics, also called interest classes, and children are interested. ...
The difference between the children in the big classroom and the children in the small classroom is that the children in the big classroom are "unattended". They are playing with all kinds of toys, building blocks, small puzzles, small picture books and so on. And the children in the small classroom are learning "interests" such as the Olympics. Children in big classrooms are fed up with these little toys, and often they are "dishonest". If they run here and jump there, the teacher will say, don't run around and have fun. The children laughed and sat down to play again. Children in small classrooms learn with "interest" under the guidance of teachers with various interests, not like that. Occasionally, the teacher will criticize a few words. In addition to the fixed monthly management fee, the children in the big classroom don't have to pay any more, so they are left in the big classroom. Children in small classrooms have to pay hundreds of dollars for each interest class, and then they are kept in small classrooms.
This may be the real difference between children in large and small classrooms, or it may be a superficial difference. Because I knew that my little niece had finally drifted into the small classroom, I asked my niece's mother why she was my sister-in-law. She said: The teacher is very kind to the children in the small classroom. I gave a wry smile, which meant that all the children in the small classroom were vip members or had VIP cards, and she also smiled.
What if I want a VIP card? What about the VIP card? In less than two months, my little niece said that she would never go to kindergarten again, and her sister-in-law forced her to go. She cried and kept crying, saying, I want to go home, I want to go home. ...
I don't know when education became a means rather than an end. Some educational institutions regard various interest classes as a means of making profits and children as a tool to make money.
I think what we can do and make our own decisions can only be: try not to let children be poisoned by today's education. But unfortunately, too many parents choose to go with the flow, ignoring the law of children's growth and healthy physical and mental development.
Is it really that important to use children as containers and put things in them? So it's not important for children to run and jump freely and play happily?
Many parents will say that the reason is very clear, that is, they are afraid that their children will be left behind by others. When you don't have the courage and ability to make a choice that doesn't hurt your child. When you encounter difficulties or doubt your ability, the only thing you need is conviction and persistence. And remember the following sentence, you can't go wrong after all:
Yes, but no matter what you do, that seed will grow into a peach tree. You may want apples or oranges, but you can only get peaches, and that seed will still grow into a peach tree. You just need to believe! You have to believe this. ...
