Experts do not distinguish between grainsElementary school students were taught to harvest wheat in the autumn and caused controversy
Whole grains expert?The autumn harvest wheat in the textbook for primary school students has caused controversy, and parents: only rice can bend over.
Tao Xingzhi was an outstanding educator who presented the famous"Life is education"The educational philosophy still has important guiding significance. His theories are broad and profound, in short, education and life are closely linked.
If education is disconnected from life, it will lead to a very awkward situation.
A controversial news about the teaching materials of primary school students on the theme of autumn harvest wheat has become a hot topic: Is it difficult to distinguish between cereals and wheat?
Recently, a father posted on social media ** criticizing his son's textbook (textbook) for containing rice and wheat that could not be properly distinguished, and this misinformation made the father uncomfortable. Although the child was unaware of the problem, the father questioned the sloppiness of the experts in compiling the students' textbooks, and even doubted that the work could have been done in their own homes.
The father's position was very simple: he believed that experts should write teaching materials for their students based on the principles of basic life knowledge. If you can't even distinguish between grains, it can only be said to be one"Flickering"。
Judging from the ** shared by parents, the textbook belongs to the learning materials of primary school students, and the part questioned by parents is involved"Let's take a look", described"Autumn Harvest"scenes.
Why did they choose to harvest wheat in the fall?Isn't it supposed to be harvested in the summer?This is very confusing for parents.
What's more, as can be seen from the scene description, the rice is being harvested because it bends only when the rice is ripe, whereas the wheat grows upwards and the bend is not noticeable.
In other words, parents question two things: that the wheat should be harvested in the summer, and that the wheat should not bend when it is ripe.
Hot discussion: Is the wheat harvest season summer harvest or autumn harvest?Is there a slope?
Regarding the question of parents, there are different opinions in the comment area.
Many people believe that wheat is usually harvested in June, which is summer, and is harvested without bending over, only when the rice is ripe.
Some people have a different view and believe that wheat is divided into winter wheat and spring wheat, which are harvested in summer and autumn respectively. Is this true?
It is true that it is necessary to have a certain amount of common sense about rural life to make a judgment on this issue, otherwise it will be difficult to make a judgment. Students in cities rely heavily on books, and errors in textbooks and learning materials can have a direct negative impact on students' cognition.
By consulting professional information, it was found that there are two types of wheat cultivation in China. While wheat is sown in autumn and harvested in summer in most areas, in a few areas, such as the Northeast, wheat is sown in spring and harvested in August or early September at the latest.
According to Agricultural News, in Shandong, for example, the best time to sow winter wheat is in early October, and the specific time is slightly different depending on the weather.
Regarding the wheat harvest period in Shandong in June 2022, Guangming.com published a report that the wheat harvest in Liaocheng, Shandong is underway, and the total harvest should be basically completed by the end of June.
At the end of May 2019, Xinhua News Agency photographed the wheat harvest in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, once again indicating that this is a summer harvest.
As a result, the country's main wheat-producing regions are usually harvested in the summer. Descriptions of autumn harvest wheat in textbooks can be controversial, so a more appropriate description might be rice or other crops that are usually harvested in the fall.
So, is the phenomenon of autumn wheat harvest real?
On August 19, 2020, Wudalianchi Farm in Heilongjiang Reclamation District was using agricultural machinery to harvest wheat, and the area has entered the autumn harvest season, according to **. This suggests that the autumn wheat harvest does exist in some parts of China, but it is relatively small and unknown to most people.
As for the question of whether wheat bends when it is ripe, common sense tells us that wheat usually does not bend because in the early stages of growth and maturity, wheat almost always grows upwards and it is rare to see wheat bending.
But does wheat bending really exist?
It can be clearly seen from the real ** above that the wheat in the picture is actually bent over, and this harvest scene gives people a sense of heaviness.
However, this is a special case that usually occurs during periods of late harvesting and more precipitation. If the harvest is early, there will be no bending of the wheat. As a result, wheat bending is not a universal phenomenon and only occurs in specific scenarios or conditions, such as different wheat varieties, sparse vegetation, strong winds, and late harvests.
Abstract: Quality education must be based on life experience.
The analysis and discussion of netizens basically came to a conclusion:
Wheat autumn harvest and wheat bending are objective existences under special circumstances. Therefore, the parents' skepticism is justified to a certain extent, and while the autumn harvest of wheat is justified in a very small number of areas, it may be controversial in the minds of the majority.
For example, a student in Anhui Province wrote an essay about autumn that focused on autumn wheat. Although the content is well written, the teacher does not give high marks because there is no real life experience that can be adapted or imagined. This is because in the south, wheat is usually harvested in the summer.
This example reminds us once again that the choice of teaching materials must be universal so as not to mislead students. The expert's explanation may not be comprehensive, but this incident once again highlights the inseparable connection between children's learning and life.
In fact, many children have two main problems when it comes to learning:
On the one hand, most people focus too much on academic performance and often ignore the life practices behind it. On the other hand, children's learning is often affected by:"Efficient indoctrination"The basic concepts are taught directly through textbooks and tutors.
In the absence of life practice, blindly describing things or expressing feelings can seem empty and unnatural. In the context of vigorously promoting quality education, we should strive to provide children with opportunities to get in touch with nature and experience life. We often take children out of the classroom and into the countryside, so that they can receive more realistic education and get richer growth experience.
