In the business plan of the theme class, one item is the name of the store. The children in the same group must discuss a store name. When the children determined the business item, two children liked it very much. Designing a trademark, I have already used my own ideas to design the name of the "DIY handmade shop", so when the teacher mentioned that we wanted to discuss the store name in this class, the two children took out the design draft and recommended it to the classmates. I quickly gained the support of most classmates, and the supportive children

One item in the business plan of the theme class is the name of the store. The children in the same group must discuss a store name. After the children decide on it, When I took the business project, there were two children who liked to design logos, so they had already used their own ideas to design the store name logo design of the "DIY Handmade Shop". So when the teacher mentioned in this class that they wanted to discuss the store name, The two children took out the design draft and recommended it to their classmates. They quickly received support from most of their classmates. The children who supported it thought their design was great. However, at this time, a classmate proposed a different store name and hoped to gain support. I asked the children to stop for thinking and discussion.

One of the children said: "We have already voted. The previous schools used voting to vote."

I said: "I know voting is a way. But it is not the only way. When time and circumstances permit, we can talk more about our ideas and listen to different ideas."

Everyone agreed, so I asked the children with different opinions to express their opinions. Everyone explains the meaning of the store name he chose. Because the two store names at the beginning were not consistent with the characteristics of the store, they could not be recognized by everyone. I quickly discovered that what the children with different opinions really wanted was for everyone to accept their opinions, so In fact, he will keep changing his ideas about the name of the store. The more far-fetched the reason, the more uncomfortable it will be for everyone. However, if this continues, the child will repeat his previous frustration experience. Because I know the child well enough, I directly "explained" the child's inner feelings. Real thoughts.

I said: "So-and-so, in fact, you just hope that everyone can accept your ideas and that everyone is willing to listen to your ideas, so you should go to the related features and Feel and think." When I explained it clearly, the children on both sides understood it!

The party that had already thought of the name of the store softened its attitude, because the children in this group knew that it felt good to be accepted, and they had also seen the adjustments and changes of the children on the other side, so they were more willing to think about changes. possibility.

Soon, the children who wanted to be accepted proposed to add "HAPPY" in front of the original "DIY Handicraft Store" because they hoped that everyone who came to the store would be happy. This idea attracted other children. The acceptance rate has increased, but some children think that such an English store name is too long, so another child proposed to change "HAPPY" to "happy". This change made all the students agree, and the child who proposed "HAPPY" also I feel that my opinions are accepted and I am very happy to accept the final result.

This process takes more time than voting, but it is more educational than voting.

Many times voting is not necessarily rational, so voting will also become a kind of majority violence. Therefore, before the matter goes to voting, there must be a lot of room for discussion and understanding, but the majority group They only use voting as the only democratic method, ignoring that there are many possibilities.

A lot of experience tells us that in primary school, because children are not mature enough, voting is just a facade, a facade of voting for whoever is good to me without seeing the truth behind it. In essence, the result of voting in the class is often that the fixed target gets support. The disadvantaged children are often frustrated, and their ideas are less and less heard and seen.

In our self-study group, teachers often encourage children to accept differences. Only with differences can we have the opportunity to think. When we think, we will know that we have many different choices. This time In the experience, in fact, the children accepted not only a different store name, but also accepted the classmate and helped and supported each other, so that everyone in the group was more willing to truly explain their thoughts and be more willing to contribute. Group effort.

I was very moved when I saw the process of change in both children. I also believe that children at school age cannot just be led by herding cattle to graze or the law of the jungle. They need process. People lead them to see the essence of something and then think forward.
