In order to avoid parents looking for relationships, a primary school in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province allocated a first-grade class teacher by throwing golden eggs. The operation steps are as follows:
Step 1: The school leaders selected four parents' representatives who smashed golden eggs from each class.
Step 2: Parent representatives draw lots.
Step 3: Parents' representatives randomly select golden eggs in sequence.
Step 4: Four parents hold hammers and break the golden eggs together under the countdown of parents.
The fifth step: under the witness of everyone, the red list was announced, the class teachers and classroom teachers were born, and the dust settled.
Its operating principle is: through the school leaders "woo" the parents who smashed the golden eggs; Then, the parents who smashed the golden eggs again "smashed the golden eggs" to select the teachers of each class.
What does it mean for parents to give them back the "right to choose"?
In the whole process, "randomness" is the key word, from the parents who "draw" golden eggs to the order in which four parents choose golden eggs, it is full of randomness. I think this is basically in line with the original intention of the school: fairness, justice and openness. This practice of returning some "options" to parents has won unanimous enthusiastic response from parents and reduced their anxiety about "being allocated", which is naturally welcomed.
After all, in the past experience, parents need to use all available resources to find a better school when the hardware conditions are not enough; After finding a school, we should consider the allocation of classes and teachers, and the latter is completely out of parents' control, because it belongs to the teaching plan within the school.
This time, the primary school allocated the "right to choose" to parents, which made headlines. The root cause may be the enthusiastic response of parents. According to news reports, these parents are very excited. Behind the excitement, I think it may be the freedom of "being able to choose independently" and the feeling of being respected. Individuals who have gained freedom and respect will naturally be enthusiastic and excited if they have the right to fully express themselves.
How does the school benefit from this move?
Looking ahead, I still want to praise the school's move. It just means that the parents' right to choose has been "partially" returned. What is left and what is not right that parents can control? Yes, it is the collocation of teachers in each class, that is, the collocation of class teachers and subject teachers. At this point, the school has shown considerable wisdom.
For the school, it has nothing to do with the difficulty of school management, so it is no harm to give this choice to parents. At the same time, it also expresses the purpose of "fairness, openness and transparency" of the school. I have to say that this will be of great help to the establishment of the relationship between home and school.
At the same time, it should be noted that the allocation of teachers is actually "packaged" by the school before the parents choose. Although the school has no intention of assigning any one of A, B, C and D to lead students to start the first grade of primary school, one thing is firmly grasped by the school: what kind of class teacher is equipped with what kind of subject teacher. This is already within the scope of the school's teaching plan, and it is one of the responsibilities of the school to rationally allocate teachers.
What's more, does it make sense for a teacher to take any of the four classes A, B, C and D and any group of children? Of course not, provided that the school really doesn't intend to allocate students.
By the way, are these children really not deliberately deployed? Knock on the blackboard three times: the first grade of primary school. Do you really believe that a child with good grades in the first grade of primary school is still a child with good grades in junior high school and senior high school in the third, sixth or even further? or vice versa, Dallas to the auditorium
A little educational knowledge is not difficult to understand. A basic principle of student resource allocation is that there are a certain proportion of students at all levels, which is related to the allocation of the whole teaching resources. Teachers won't do it if there is an imaginary intentional configuration. Of course, this refers to the primary school stage, and it is not excluded that a few schools will have "good classes" and "poor classes" arrangements.
Nature is at its best.
As a parent of primary school students, I respect the carefree attitude towards children's education. Happy-go-lucky doesn't mean leaving the children alone and letting them stay where they are. Instead, we should naturally educate our children, find the positive significance of the matter itself when they encounter some difficulties or need to choose during their growth, and use the opportunity of the matter itself to let the children naturally transition to the next growth stage.
When you enter the first grade, you may meet a "bad" class teacher. Of course, the meaning of quotation marks is to show that there is nothing absolutely "bad" in the world. You should see that this "bad" teacher may be an unsuitable state in your past personality and an excellent opportunity for you to expand your ability. More importantly, this "bad" teacher will let children know all kinds of situations in the world, learn how to deal with this or that "bad" and hone their skills. Knowing this may alleviate some parents' anxiety about "choosing a teacher". After all, this is only a primary school, and the professional gold content of teaching has been assessed by the school when teachers join the job. So, what does the so-called "good" teacher mean?
I think that's the relationship between parents and teachers. Every teacher needs to be respected by his parents. This respect is not a question of how many gifts to give the teacher during the holiday, but a sincere greeting and support for the teacher's usual work. Teachers can feel this. If the above two points are achieved, I think there will be no problem in the relationship between parents and teachers, and your child will have a caring teacher to supervise his study and encourage his growth at school as you wish. I think this is much better than trying to find a relationship to choose courses and educating children with anxiety.
Therefore, please see the vitality and strong plasticity of children, they are all energetic individuals; I believe that every teacher's teaching ability enables children to enter any class naturally in the first grade of primary school and start their reading career.
