At a primary school in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, Chinese teacher Yang was surprised by the students' comments on the story of The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. This story is celebrated in traditional culture, but now it is questioned by elementary school students. The students generally believe that the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl are not suitable matches, and only the Queen Mother's mind is normal. They thought that the Cowherd had no culture, no money, and was not handsome, and they didn't understand why the Weaver Girl chose him. Some people think that the Weaver Girl was carried away by the man in front of her and had a love brain evaluation of the Cowherd. Others said that the Weaver Girl was deceived and disrespected by the Cowherd, and the Queen Mother should be opposed. Elementary school students think that this kind of marriage obtained by stealing clothes is abnormal. Their new thinking is eye-catching, no longer blindly accepting the indoctrination of others like previous generations, but having the courage to question and think.
Expanding: This new thinking for primary school students can be said to be the result of modern education. With the development of society, people's perceptions and values are also changing. The new generation of teachers and parents is more open-minded and willing to respect children's perspectives and ideas, allowing them to think and question traditional stories. They realize that it is more important to develop children's judgment and analytical skills than to blindly worship authority. By guiding students to think about the issues in the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, they hope to cultivate future talents with the ability to think independently.
The elementary school students pointed out several problems with the Cowherd in the story. First of all, he took a bath with the Weaver Girl and secretly hid the Weaver Girl's clothes, which is already illegal, and it is also a great disrespect to girls. They thought that the Cowherd should be severely punished instead of having the Weaver Girl marry him. Secondly, the Cowherd knows that his conditions are very poor, but he insists on marrying the Weaver Girl, is this true love?The schoolchildren pointed out that the Cowherd did not pay any price for the Weaver Girl, and only obtained a wife with outstanding labor and good looks through this "hooliganism". They believe that this is just a fantasy of the author when he is poor, and not real love. The observation and analytical skills of elementary school students are amazing, and they can not only see the irrationality in the story, but also relate it to real life.
Expanding: Elementary school students' doubts show that they already have a certain level of observation and analytical skills. They are able to see the problem from the story and relate it to real life. This way of thinking is not only a question of traditional values, but also a critique of one's own values. They realize that the Cowherd's behavior is unreasonable, illegal and disrespectful, and should not be promoted and glorified. This new way of thinking is a surprise and a glimpse of hope for the future.
In Shenzhen, a famous teacher said in an interview that it is normal for students in the new era to be questioning. He thinks that there are many good love stories, and there are many who oppose feudal ideas, so why do you have to learn stories like Xi Cowherd and Weaver Girl?They believe that elementary school students tend to have a clearer perspective than adults and are able to see the essence behind the story. This progress is made possible by the guidance of teachers and parents. Modern parents and teachers are willing to respect their children's opinions, allow them to express their true thoughts, and make new **s about ethics and principles. They realize that it is more important to develop judgment and the ability to analyze the essence than to blindly worship authority.
Expansion: Home and school are the two main environments for children's growth, and both play an important guiding role. In the family, modern parents pay more attention to cultivating their children's independent thinking skills and respecting their views and opinions. They are willing to have conversations with children, listen to their ideas, and teach them how to analyze and judge. In schools, modern teachers pay more attention to developing students' critical thinking skills. They give students the opportunity to speak freely and encourage them to question and think about traditional stories. They hope that students will be able to think independently about the traditional story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to be reinterpreted by primary school students, and they will think about the story from a modern perspective and point out the irrationalities and illegal behaviors in the story. They think that the Cowherd ** Weaver Girl bathing and hiding the Weaver Girl's clothes is a serious disrespect for women, and the Cowherd knows that his conditions are very poor, but he insists on marrying the Weaver Girl, which is also against true love. The observation and thinking skills of primary school students are surprising, they can see the problems of the story from the surface, and see the moral bottom line behind the story.
This progress is made possible by the guidance of parents and teachers. Modern parents are more open-minded and willing to respect their children's views and opinions, encouraging them to express their true thoughts. Teachers are also aware of the importance of developing judgment and analytical skills, and they give students the opportunity to speak freely and encourage them to question and think about traditional stories. This type of education enables elementary school students to think independently, which leads to new perspectives and perspectives.
This story reflects the progress of society and the change of cultural attitudes from the side. In the past, people blindly accepted the values and morals of traditional stories, but today's primary school students are able to look at traditional stories with a more enlightened and modern perspective and question the problems in them. This change is worthy of recognition and encouragement, and it shows that the new generation of children has the ability to think and analyze independently, to see things from their own perspective, and to reflect and reinterpret traditional ideas.
In future education, we should continue to encourage children to develop independent thinking skills, and develop their judgment and analytical skills. Only in this way can they have a deeper understanding of the world and more accurate judgments. At the same time, we also need to teach them to express their views and opinions in a rational and respectful way, to discuss and communicate with others, and to form a more open and pluralistic way of thinking.
In addition, we should also be rational and prudent about the inheritance of traditional stories and culture. Traditional culture contains profound wisdom and humanistic spirit, which can give us a lot of inspiration and reference. However, we must not be blindly superstitious because of tradition, especially the feudal ideas and irrationalities that exist in it. It is reasonable and necessary to reinterpret and rethink traditional stories, and to criticize and question the problems in them.
In short, the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl in the eyes of primary school students shows their ability to think independently and critically. This is the result of modern education and the embodiment of social progress. We should nurture children's judgment and analytical skills from an early age, so that they have the ability to see the world more comprehensively and accurately. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the inheritance and development of traditional culture, and treat traditional stories with respect and retention of their value, as well as rational and prudent treatment of problems and irrationalities. In this way, we can better guide the growth of children and help them develop the right values and worldview.
