This is the last class on Friday afternoon, and I will still assign my math homework for the weekend. "In addition to doing our basic training, this weekend's homework should also do two study papers and two AB volumes." The words sound just fell, "Ah-"the classroom exploded; Several excellent students said, "We won't rest." "It is best not to have weekends!" Other students followed suit, "protest! Protest! Protest! " I was very angry, but I pretended not to hear anything. I thought to myself: I am doing this for your own good. How can I be so ungrateful? After returning to the office, I was lost in thought. How can students not resist the homework assigned by the teacher on weekends? The children studied nervously for five days and finally arrived at the weekend. Not only did they have no rest, but they also brought back so much homework, including Chinese, mathematics and English, and many of them were journals and AB volumes. These assignments are very mechanical and repetitive. This kind of homework is not only hard for students, but also tiring for teachers. Weekend homework can be arranged, but the quantity should be appropriate, the quality should be exquisite, and the quantity should be small and precise. After some reflection, I decided to try to improve the content and form of weekend homework.
In order to keep my math homework from taking up too much students' time, I jumped into the sea of questions, studied hard, compared similar questions repeatedly, and then combined them into an assignment equivalent to the capacity of a test paper. This paper roll is small in quantity and fine in content. Pay attention to cultivating students' ability to apply knowledge to solve practical problems; This test paper was compiled by myself, which lightened the burden on my classmates caused by too many tasteless questions that I casually "brought", and also lightened my heavy and ineffective correcting pressure in the later period.
Later, I assigned weekend homework, and I used the way of cooperation between students and parents. For example, I arranged the homework of "decimal multiplication (column vertical calculation)" like this: when I got home, I asked your parents to give you five questions of "multiplying one decimal by one decimal" and five questions of "multiplying two decimals by two decimals", and I asked your parents to check them after I finished. As soon as the students heard this, they immediately stretched out their scissors hands and shouted "yeah, yeah, yeah". I think this form of homework can not only let parents know their children's learning situation in time, but also reduce the burden on teachers. This form of homework has been unanimously recognized by parents.
Later, I assigned weekend homework, and I adopted two ways: fixed homework and optional homework. Fixed homework requires students to do a carefully selected exercise that is equivalent to the capacity of a test paper. The selected assignments are arranged in different levels according to the actual situation of different students. Students all like this flexible "optional homework". Students with a good foundation in mathematics don't need to do mechanical and repetitive exercises, so they can make time to learn what they want to learn. Students with weak mathematical foundation will not be afraid of "problems". They can find a sense of success in doing problems suitable for their own level and enhance their confidence in learning mathematics well.
