Certificate of Merit Certificate of Merit, the paste window is not bright, and the butt is disgusted”
During the holidays, I heard the children in the class teasing each other about the awards they received.
A classmate put forward an opinion: "Teacher, this time you sent me this miscellaneous award certificate again, and my mother said that it was useless." ”
I remember that he was sent an outstanding class cadre, and the school gave the class three indicators, how can this award be regarded as a miscellaneous card?
*。In the old days, getting the certificate was a very rewarding thing, and it was also a very good symbol, and the parents would be proud of the students, and the students themselves felt a special honor.
Now the students' awards seem to have changed their "nature", which makes people feel that it is not an honor or a rare achievement, but has become an encouragement, and the meaning has also changed a little.
The parents of the classmate think that the "outstanding class cadre" is a miscellaneous award, and it is estimated that they hope that the child can get a traditional "three good students" or "learning pacesetter" certificates!
I think so too.
In addition to his academic performance, this student is excellent in all aspects of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, art and labor. He is good at singing and dancing, good at writing, cheerful, good at expression, and he is inseparable from all the activities in the class. If you study harder, will there be a bigger stage in the future?
As in the old days, students didn't get a few certificates in a school year, and it was a great honor to have a certificate that could be plastered all over the wall before graduating from high school.
Parents think: "Certificates such as 'Teamwork Award', 'Outstanding Team Member', 'Learning Activist', etc., are basically one for each student in the class, and some children can even get more than a dozen certificates in a semester." I feel that these awards are set up by teachers casually in order to coax children. ”
After the award certificate of this year's class was discovered, the students were still very excited, comparing with each other, "mine is from the Education Bureau", "yours is from the school", everyone didn't say it, I really didn't notice.
But this year's award is really not for everyone, 24 students in our class got the certificate, which is different from previous years.
Perhaps some awards are "consolation prizes" in the eyes of adults. But for children, the award represents recognition and encouragement. When a child deserves to be praised, he will really be very disappointed if he is not recognized by adults.
If adults often ignore the child's efforts and progress, it will really weaken the child's energy.
Once the child's enthusiasm is discouraged, it is too late for parents to remedy it!
*。There is a child in Ningbo who insists on not asking for leave on a snowy day in order to be a full-time pacesetter. In order to meet the child's small goal of winning the prize, the mother had to temporarily buy a small snowboard in the mother and baby store and drag him to school step by step. Due to the heavy wind and snow, when the mother sent the child to the kindergarten, her head and eyebrows were frozen.
However, the mother felt that it was very worthwhile to send her baby to school this time. Because the child has his own goals to adhere to, even if the weather is bad, he does not give up, how can he not support it as a parent at this time?
Although the child is only for a certificate, it is really a great thing to have such a sense of purpose at such a young age.
A sense of purpose is knowing what you want and taking action for it.
As I have always praised, Xin Mingyue's goal of not taking leave in the third year of high school.
Those children with a sense of purpose tend to have a stronger internal drive, which is why some children do the same thing well, and some children are unwilling to do it no matter what they say.
For this reason, wise parents know how to respect and support their children in pursuing their goals. And, give your child a thumbs up when he accomplishes his goals!
I didn't expect that a certificate of merit would have so much meaning in the eyes of children. I was sloppy in issuing certificates at the end of the semester, and I should give every student a serious evaluation, and issue a certificate of merit based on strength according to each student's progress.
