Ministry of Education, please don’t reduce the burden on my children.

It’s been more than half a month since school started. I wonder if your children’s homework is okay? My friend\’s cousin\’s child is in second grade. Last time, my cousin told her friend that the child has to recite Chinese every day. The teacher also requires him to write short fairy tales, about 600 words, one article per week. There are so many words that the child doesn\’t know, so he has to check them one by one. Dictionary, this kind of homework will take at least 2 hours. Speaking of English, I have to recite short English passages every day. Once, a foreigner introduced his family. There were so many and long names that I always got stuck. The child carried it from 8 o\’clock to 11 o\’clock in the evening, and finally said with a cry: \”Mom, I think I will never be able to carry it anymore.\” Looking at the child\’s red eyes, the mother wanted the child to go to bed, but the child said tomorrow The teacher also needs to check. Years ago, my nephew, who was in third grade, was about to take his final exam. The school gave him twice as much homework as usual: 12 papers plus English word memorization papers, including 7 papers for the final sprint upgrade papers for Chinese, Mathematics and English subjects, and 5 papers for multi-phonetic phonetic word combinations. roll. Parents feel really distressed when they see their children carrying heavier and heavier schoolbags: \”The children are miserable and listless every day. All I can do to help is to teach and accompany them.\” In recent years, burden reduction has become a topic The popularity continues to remain high. During the children\’s winter vacation, I read a reply from a reader under an article about how children should spend their winter vacation: Holidays are a time for children to play. Don\’t mislead society. Which country oppresses children like you do? It should be like some The state also takes away all the textbooks and lets the children have fun! In fact, when I saw this parent\’s reply, I felt quite depressed. Because the most terrifying thing in the world is not that others are richer or smarter than you, but that these people are not only richer and smarter than you, but also work harder than you. We cannot dominate society. If we can, we all hope that we can have the ability to balance social resources. Then we don’t have to struggle so hard to survive in this unfair society. When I was in school, for 12 years, I never did a chemistry experiment with my own hands. Why? Because the school does not have a laboratory, not to mention the students and even the teachers have not done a few real experiments. Are we a mountainous area? No, we are just around Beijing; are we very poor? No, we don’t have to worry about food and clothing, and we have three good meals. But we have no laboratory, no experimental equipment, and even the library is not open at all times. After I was admitted to college, I went to Beijing during my extracurricular time. When I visited museums on weekends, I would always see groups of primary school students, who gathered together to listen to the interesting explanations of the docents. Are they coming to class? No, no one forces them to write a summary, and they don’t have to go to school the next day to recite the antiques and technologies they saw. Perhaps, at this time, they still don\’t quite understand what the relationship between Qin Shihuang and the unification of Chinese characters is, and what significance Hawking and \”A Brief History of Time\” have to them. However, as long as the seeds are planted, they will sprout and grow quickly when encountering rain and dew in the future. Because the best education is not sitting in the classroom and memorizing textbooks many times, but the subtle influence of every small detail in life. When they see Qin Shihuang unifying the six kingdoms again in history textbooks, they will definitely be able to remember this relevant knowledge more quickly and deeply, because they have seen it with their own eyes.The impression is incomparable to what you see in boring textbooks. And what can our children do on the weekends? Watching \”Idol Producer\” and \”Happy Camp\” on TV, or frantically \”eating chicken\” and playing \”King of Glory\” with a mobile phone in hand. Without seeds in the soil, no matter how much water is irrigated, there will be no way for the branches to germinate. Will we see in the textbook which artist won the competition? What\’s more, these children in Beijing and Shanghai are attending various tutoring classes and overseas study tours during winter and summer vacations. We can\’t even absorb basic water. How can we compete with these children who are constantly supplementing with nutritional fluids? This is why Hengshui\’s education model has been criticized, but there are still countless parents and schools flocking to this management method. Because compared with first-tier cities such as Beijing and Shanghai, which are rich in educational resources, we cannot afford the quality of teachers and educational resources. So what should we do? We have to fight for time and the amount of questions. Some people say that this is unfair. Yes, society is unfair. Not only China, but no country in the world can say that its country is absolutely fair. When there is a society, there is class, and when there is class, there is a gap between the rich and the poor. , this is a social law that cannot be changed. The exam, or the college entrance examination, is a relatively fair way in this situation. At least it does not completely block the road between classes. It also leaves us a window, even though it is only a very small skylight. . Qian Wenzhong, a professor at Fudan University, said: \”The reason why the college entrance examination system cannot be changed is because we can\’t find a system that is less bad than the college entrance examination system. The college entrance examination system is not the best system, but it is the least bad system.\” Now we We can also rely on studying and taking the college entrance examination. Even if there is only a 4% chance of success to cross the class, at least we still have this way to succeed. If we give up even the method of reading, what other ways do we have to make changes for the future? My classmate is a teacher in her hometown, and she is currently teaching fourth grade students. I asked her: Do you give your children a lot of homework? My classmates said that there shouldn’t be many. I don’t think every school can assign 12 papers to children in one weekend. Are parents responsible for marking and signing their children\’s homework? They are irresponsible and have no time. They are all having second children now and the parents cannot control them. What’s more, we have boarding students here and some parents are not educated enough. Yes, in the fourth grade, many parents may be unable to provide counseling, because even if parents can solve many difficult problems, they cannot explain them clearly to their children. In the news yesterday, I saw a parent in Shenzhen who quit his job to focus on tutoring his child with homework because his child was promoted to the second grade of junior high school. In this reality, if we simply give up our efforts, I don’t know what the outcome will be except watching the gap between our children get wider and wider. He Youjun, the son of Macau gambling king who became popular some time ago, said: \”I never took a day off from the age of 20 to 29.\” While others take four courses a semester, he takes eight. At Christmas, everyone was busy having a party, but He Youjun was studying hard as usual. A few weeks before the exam, he is always in the library at five in the morning. We are not advocating that every child must be likeLike He Youjun, after all, not everyone has this talent and ability. Not everyone in the world can become Bill Gates or Zuckerberg. We don’t expect every child to be the person who changes the world, but at least we should do our best within the scope of what we can bear. Do your best to do better! Energy is always conserved in this world. If you pay here, you will definitely be able to enjoy the rewards you deserve for your hard work in the future. On the contrary, if you live as you please now, you will definitely pay the hard work you deserve in the future. After all, we don’t have a huge fortune to guarantee that our children will have a worry-free life in the future. The best thing we can give our children is to teach them the skills to settle down and live in peace. When parents are no longer able to protect their children in the future, at least they can live no worse than they do now. To reduce the burden, whose burden should be reduced? I hope parents can consider it carefully. What do you think?
