In August p>217, I can't remember when I paid attention to WeChat official account, a lifelong laboratory in Tsinghua University. I just felt that every article I pushed was my favorite content. For example, "How to Make Children Fall in Love with Reading" pushed on August 4th is what I need, so I pay attention to it because I like it.
I don't remember the day when I saw the curriculum arrangement of cooperation between TULLL and Tongxing Planet in summer pushed by WeChat official account, and I signed up the children with the mentality of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, I received a rejection letter on August 9. Although I was rejected, I was still very interested in this activity. What I didn't expect was that on August 11th, I received another email informing the two children that they could go to Tsinghua University Lifelong Learning Laboratory to learn about the "solar system" as a substitute. At that time, I was very excited. The mountain dolls could go to Beijing to experience it, swim in Tsinghua University and get in touch with the top academic ideas in China. I think this walk is no longer a simple poetic walk. This walk may affect the children's life-long thinking or lifestyle, even more than I thought.
In order to catch up with the time, we arrived in Beijing one day earlier. On the evening of August 21st, Mr. Tao called again to confirm whether we arrived in Beijing or not, and once again thanked Tsinghua University Lifelong Learning Laboratory for its enthusiasm. Teacher Tao said that she was worried that we wouldn't be able to make it, so she asked again to confirm that she was relieved after we arrived in Beijing. In fact, I didn't know that most of the other children were from Beijing until I arrived at the laboratory, and there were only fifteen children in the whole class, so I understood why Teacher Tao was worried. Actually, she is called Teacher Tao, but she is only in her twenties. She is a teacher in Tsinghua University lifelong learning laboratory, and the teacher with "Tong Xing" printed on her vest belongs to Tong Xing Planet, another educational institution. This activity is jointly organized by them.
on August 22nd, we got ready early and just waited for the departure. Get off at the east gate of Tsinghua University Ximen Peking University. At this time, the road is already crowded with people. We followed the crowd to the West Gate of Tsinghua University, and the sign at the door clearly stated: No visit. It is said that the class of 217 is entering the school, and the school is only open on Saturday and Sunday. Looking across the door, the campus is green and lush, very quiet and beautiful! I show our QR code to the doorman, let go! There is an indescribable feeling when stepping on the asphalt road in Tsinghua University. I have a lot of thoughts, and I don't know what to say. I just walk silently and look at it with my heart. There are only pedestrians who pass by in a hurry, and the children are also very quiet. Walking on Tsinghua West Road, there is only a quiet feeling. The building where the class was held was near the south gate, so we almost walked across half of Tsinghua, and found that Tsinghua University was bigger than the main city of our county, with complete facilities and elegant environment. Even a xiaohongmen must be hidden in the green Parthenocissus tricuspidata, and it is pleasing to the eye everywhere. We used mobike to push the two children forward.
at 8: 5, we arrived at the class building, pushed the door and went in, only to find the classrooms and laboratories for automobile specialty. The classrooms were all arranged in a booth, which we had never seen before, and the teachers' offices were marked with nameplates. The security guard came to ask us what we were doing, and told us to go out of the north gate and enter the sixth floor area B from the west gate. I'm afraid it's too late to look at the time. The security guard said that he was afraid that you would be unable to find a place in it just like turning a maze. Just behind him, several students on the sixth floor said they could take us up, and the students were very enthusiastic.
8:58, here we are. There are several bronze medals at the door, as well as bronze medals donated by the Danish Lego Foundation and Tsinghua alumnus Huang Xiafei. You can see some children playing games there from the corridor. Yes, this is it!
after I put the bag away, I saw Lolo doing a test. The content was that the children divided cookies. Twelve children had several ways to divide cookies. Before I had time to look closely, the children had been called to hold hands and play games in circles. This is a self-introduction game. Children are labeled when they sign in, and they say hello when they introduce themselves. I once participated in this way of self-introduction in Xi 'an, and I felt deeply deja vu. The physical contact of strangers can quickly eliminate the sense of estrangement, and the children will soon get familiar with it through self-introduction. I am worried that it will be difficult for my two children to integrate into the group. After all, it is the first time for them to enter this class, and it is a class where mom and dad study together. After three rounds of self-introduction, I found that my worries were a little redundant. They could skillfully communicate with children and teachers in Mandarin, but my son said whatever he wanted to say, and he didn't like to raise his hand. He would also interrupt the teacher in the middle of the talk, so he was more free and free in class.
This class lasts for three hours, and the contents are: my solar system, time and space, eight planets, and a demonstration of matter from small to large. Don't say that it is a shock to children, only to me.
In the first half of class, the teacher asked a question: How much do you know about the solar system? Look at most children with blank faces, and our children are no exception. There are two little boys who are particularly rich in celestial knowledge, and they speak clearly. I have never heard of some terms, such as Oort Nebula, Quark, tarantula nebula and so on. It is really difficult to distinguish the concept of time and space, and it is really difficult for children aged nine to twelve to distinguish these two concepts. The teacher demonstrates the change of time through the growth process of small saplings from small to large, and distinguishes the concept of space through the existence of roots, leaves, flowers and fruits of big trees. I wonder if the children can understand? During recess, I asked the two children how they were listening. The daughter said that she could basically understand, and the son said that she didn't understand at all. The introduction of the eight planets is explained in the concept of space through pictures, including the name, characteristics, alias, volume, distance from the earth, autobiography and temperature of each planet. Children's thinking is open and casual'. When talking about Mars, some children said that ultraviolet disinfection is harmful to human body, so all children are talking about ultraviolet rays. When it comes to Uranus, a child said, Teacher, I know why Uranus is bright and Neptune is not. That's because Neptune is far away from us. Some children think this statement is too simple, and everyone knows it. The teacher said that you may not be able to say what you know. Indeed, it is easy to say it, but I am afraid it is not easy to write it. Wandering in the text for such a long time is also deeply touched. Sometimes some thoughts and feelings are fleeting, sometimes what is written is not close to what you express, and sometimes what others interpret is different from what you express. I think this is directly related to my lack of mastery of writing, and perhaps to my depth of thought and personal cultivation.
During the break, the children played with Lego blocks and robots that could be assembled, which was the first time to see them. Children go to the toilet for running, and watch other students play while eating. "Learn and play" and "Learning is a lifelong career". Playing is children's nature, and education should also follow people's physical and psychological characteristics. Look at the truthfulness of children during recess. What else can you say?
In the second half of the class, the teacher first shows a video, which shows the arrangement of matter from small to large. From neutrinos, protons ... to the Milky Way, Andromeda and Wuxian, the Great Wall in the north morning, I don't know how many light years have passed. With the video playing, the children only have one "wow" after another! Because my child's cognition only reaches the Milky Way. I heard my son say, Teacher, I feel so small! Yes, in the long river of time, the vast sea of people and the rolling world of mortals, how small people are, children, you can realize that this is precious. I just hope that you know your position, whether it is time or space, decide your position and learn to live. I think you will learn something from this class. I never want you to be rich and expensive. I just want you to be down-to-earth. Today is happier than yesterday, which is enough!
It's already half past eleven, and the homework assigned by the teacher is to make a picture with the deepest feeling in this class with colored mud. Seeing that all the children are doing it seriously, my daughter made Saturn with a halo and my son made a black hole. These two paintings have been taken back from Beijing to Shijiazhuang to yuanshi county! The son said that he would stick it next to his award, and the daughter also said that he would stick it up. As for paintings, from the perspective of adults, they are not very similar, but from the perspective of children, they may be different.
at twelve o'clock sharp, we reluctantly left the lab. At Lanyuan Restaurant, children greeted them as soon as they entered the door. "Hi, hello!" Is there anyone we know in Tsinghua? Looking carefully, it was the children who had just been in class together, and the three children greeted each other again. It seems that greeting in class at the beginning is still unfinished!
"Where else do you want to see? Think it over! If you go out, you can't get in! " My lover urged us that maybe we didn't even get half or two thirds of Tsinghua University, so we hurried back with some regrets. People are in such a hurry on the journey!
one experience is unforgettable!
