Why should we pay attention to early education?
If you pay attention to me, you will know that I am a teacher and I am a teacher in a vocational school. As we all know, students in vocational schools usually take the senior high school entrance examination? Eraser? , not that they are? Losers? Because there are also many successful cases. After contact with them, I found that they really lack many abilities, such as understanding, hands-on ability, concentration, normative consciousness and so on.
For a simple example, I once led them to play a game when they were tired after class. Call? Shoot 7? , that is, the number of turns in the class, 1234567 ... If you encounter the number 7 or a multiple of 7, you can't make a sound, and use high-five instead.
I said the rules once, found five people to demonstrate them once, and then I officially started playing. I thought it could go smoothly, but it surprised me and I couldn't play at all. First, they are not good at math, and some people simply don't know the multiple of 7. Second, most people can't understand the rules of the game. There is a deviation in understanding ability.
Since this incident, I have been reflecting on how to educate children to avoid this problem. As a teacher, I know that the older the child, the better the guidance. Just like a small sapling, it is efficient and effective to take some measures to remedy it when it grows crooked. But a crooked 20-year-old tree, try it.
As a self-reflection, I am a person who is extremely lacking in imagination and practical ability. The most outstanding performance is that I couldn't watch cartoons when I was a child because I couldn't understand them. Before my parents' education, lack of material resources was one thing, and they also thought that I would grow up anyway. Learning still depends on yourself.
Yes, I am a member of the army of normal education and a qualified graduate in exam-oriented education. But when I was a child, I really only studied hard, recited formulas, and had little other intellectual development. I don't want my children to follow my old path. Early education may not be successful, but I want to open up more possibilities for children's success.
