Is it appropriate to take time off to travel when my child is in first grade?

First, let me tell you that there is a girl in my class whose parents did this! Her mother asked for leave and said she was sick. She was given intravenous infusions at home for a few days and then returned to school after she recovered. I didn't think much about it at the time.

A few days later, the child came to school. I also asked about the child's health and told the teacher if he felt uncomfortable. Ask the teacher if you don't know the questions, don't leave your homework behind!

Later, the monitor ran to me during the break and said: Teacher, classmate XXX is not sick? "How do you know she's not sick?" She showed us the small bracelet she bought when she went on a trip, and gave us good food to eat...

At that time, I felt very blocked. She is so concerned about her, and she even told her on WeChat to take good care of her health. Her health is important, and don’t worry about her homework being left behind. I will make up for her when she comes.

It turns out that I am too sentimental. Parents don’t take learning seriously at all. It’s the teachers who think learning is important! You're being arrogant there!

The questioner asked whether it is appropriate for first-grade children to ask for leave to travel. As a teacher, I cannot give you the answer you want. Because all teachers will say that it is not appropriate to go to school, not because of illness or other objective reasons for not being able to come to school, but because of the subjective reasons of the parents. When you ask for leave from the teacher, will you directly say that you want your child to travel? Maybe they lie like the parents of my students!

What kind of example have you set for your children? You can lie to achieve your own goals. Then children will learn from it in the future. How do you educate your children and teach them by words and deeds? Children will watch how their parents behave.

Then you give your child a wrong signal. It turns out that it doesn’t matter whether you go to school or not. You don’t have to go to school. Then one day, your child asks you to ask for leave from the teacher because he doesn’t want to go to school. How do you respond? My child, do you want to take this leave or not?

If the teacher knew the true situation, what do you think the teacher would think? Anyway, I know that I feel very uncomfortable. Naturally, my level of concern for that child is much lower than before. To be honest, I really I feel like I wasted my emotions paying attention to her, because I devoted myself to completing things that her parents didn't care about. Perhaps in the eyes of parents, teachers are just a joke!

If you really want to take your children to travel, choose summer or winter vacation and have fun without any burden. If you lie to ask for leave to travel, do you think there will be no burden on your children? If there is really no burden and you don’t think it’s okay not to go to school, sooner or later he will hate going to school and ask you not to go to school and ask you to ask the teacher for a leave of absence for her! At that time, do you want to take this leave or not? Parents and friends, please figure it out for yourself!

This is my opinion. I wonder what friends think about this issue. Would you also take leave to take your children to travel? Looking forward to friends sharing their opinions in the comments!

The first grade is the foundation of the basics of getting started. Parents should not get used to traveling with their children. If they fail to catch up with work, they will make more mistakes. The responsibility lies with the parents. Don’t blame the teachers for their lack of education!

Different perspectives lead to different opinions. I think objectively speaking, it's understandable, but not recommended. In the first grade of primary school, the learning tasks are not heavy and the learning is not difficult. Especially for some children with strong receptive abilities, parents hope that their children will go out and see the outside world in addition to completing school studies. Traveling indeed provides many opportunities for children to increase their knowledge, which in turn promotes their learning.

During the Spring Festival last year, I chatted with a distant relative, and he told me that he had taken his children on trips twice while they were in school. From his words, I felt that he did not I felt something was wrong, and told me many reasons for traveling: to increase my children's knowledge, not to fall behind in their studies, and most importantly, to save money by going out in the off-season. Indeed, his gains are very obvious, but from beginning to end, I didn't hear him say what the teacher's attitude was? Maybe my relatives think that the teacher doesn't know.

Is this really a good idea?

In addition to this relative, there should be parents around me who have done this, but I feel that if parents want to do this, they must communicate with the teacher candidly, tell the real reason, and get the teacher’s understanding. Because the teacher also evaluates the child, if the teacher objects, there must be the teacher's reason, and he must not force it or lie. Forced behavior will cause the teacher to pay less attention to their children, and lying will set a negative "example" for the children. The children will think that they can lie just to go out to play. The consequences of both are very serious.

From a teacher's perspective, the school is a collective, and an individual's request for leave to travel is an individual behavior. Within a collective, individuals must obey the collective unless there are very special reasons. If everyone takes leave for their so-called natural reasons, how can the school maintain order?

For children, in addition to studying at school, they must also learn how to respect others, obey discipline, be honest and other qualities. Students' learning in school is multi-dimensional, and so is the student's conduct. It is slowly cultivated through the words and deeds of school teachers and parents.

Students have winter and summer vacations. These time can be used to take children to travel. Although there will be many people traveling during winter and summer vacations, this is also an opportunity to teach adults and children to adjust their mentality. Why don't we regard this as another scenery?

Therefore, parents should be cautious when asking for leave to travel. It is not advisable from the perspective of teachers or children.

I am happy to answer your question. This situation does exist, but whether it is suitable or not depends on the specific situation. Of course, it is not suitable for most families.

My politics teacher in my senior year of high school is a typical example. Both of them are teachers, and they also have a son. The son was also in the first grade for the first two years, and he taught the graduating class of senior high school every year. Everyone knows that the senior high school graduating class takes exams relatively early, at least the elementary school has not had a holiday yet. They take their children on study tours every year, and their children must take time off to go out. But his children's studies will not fall behind at all. I see that they always go out with homework. When they come back at night, they also have to do homework and write diaries to record their travel life. Both of them are teachers, so they have the ability to educate and teach, and they are also very good at nurturing their children. Her children have loved reading since they were young, and they are also good at playing chess. They even bought a house specifically for him. The child, together with his companions, went to that place specifically to read. In fact, when he travels like this, it is also a learning process for his children. It is just that the learning environment has changed. This does not mean that sitting in a classroom is learning. Studying abroad is also a kind of learning. It is just that not every family has such conditions.

Secondly, on the show Mommy Loves, I also saw a young mother traveling across the country with her three children, but she only used her winter and summer vacations to go there. of. His method of raising children is even more unique. During this travel process, each child has to carry their own luggage and wash their own clothes. Every time they go to a place to play, the children have to summarize what they have learned today. What should you pay attention to when going out, and how to deal with dangerous situations? Every time before going out, the children are required to make a list, including the route, and let the children participate in the discussion. The children learn a lot from it, and their organizational skills, writing skills, language skills, and survival skills are all very strong. The youngest baby still has to push the car, and the older siblings are responsible for taking care of the younger brother. But the mother also has a background in education.

So when my child is in first grade, is it appropriate to take time off to travel? This depends on the family situation. Generally, it is not suitable for families. You can take the holidays and take the children there later, and try not to affect the children's studies. However, some families have this condition, and the delay is not long. In this case, it is Understandable. Learning is regardless of occasion or venue. People who want to learn can learn at any time. People who don’t want to learn can’t learn if you trap them in the classroom.

This little girl has little talent and little knowledge. Everyone is welcome to leave comments!

Unsuitable because: (1) Traveling is not the main occupation of first-grade children, so let them know that their current main task is learning; (2) Traveling is good for children, as it can increase their knowledge and broaden their horizons, but it must Make full use of holiday time, so that children can be aware of it from an early age, abide by the rules, and do not ask for leave casually; (3) Traveling on the go during school hours can easily make children develop loose habits; (4) Even if they travel, they will see There are very few students in the scenic area, so he will feel weird and not enjoy himself.

First of all, my opinion is that it is definitely not appropriate to ask for leave to travel while your children are in school. I don’t know how parents think about it. Do they have to take time off to travel while their children are in school? Wouldn’t it be possible to reasonably arrange other times to travel? Is it reasonable to take children out to travel and affect their studies? I think it's inappropriate.

Children have just entered first grade, and there is an adaptation process in all aspects. They need to learn cultural knowledge, get to know each other and get along correctly with their classmates, adapt to the new living and learning environment, and understand the teachings of various subjects. Teacher, although the knowledge he learns is relatively simple, it cannot be interrupted. When you take him on a trip, how can you make up for the missed lessons? Do you want the teacher to give him extra lessons? Have you ever considered that teachers have so much time and energy? If many children are like this, there is nothing the teacher can do. Children should not take time off to travel while they are in school, so that children can study at school with peace of mind.

Traveling with children is a good thing. Let your children see the famous mountains and rivers of the motherland, visit scenic spots and historic sites, and cultivate their patriotic sentiment

Let your children experience the customs and customs of various places. Or take your children to a farmyard to let them experience the living habits of farmers. This is very good for the healthy growth of children. Parents should arrange their time reasonably and use winter and summer vacations or short vacations to go out. It should not affect the child's normal learning. Maybe the parents are on annual leave and take advantage of this rare opportunity to take their children on a trip. But the unit’s annual leave can be adjusted, right? Wouldn’t it be better to adjust it to when the children are on vacation? Children should not be allowed to take leave without special reasons. Let your children study with peace of mind.

The above is my personal opinion. Friends please leave comments. Thanks.

There was a student in my original class who was in poor health and took sick leave for more than a week. After she came to school, our teachers in the three extracurricular subjects of Chinese and Mathematics gave her tutoring lessons whenever they were free. She was also left to tutor her alone after get off work every day. It probably took more than a week to catch up on the missed lessons, and at the same time, she had to connect the new and old knowledge every day. In a few days, there was a National Day holiday. On the 8th, everyone else came and she was missing. The head teacher called her parents. Her mother said that she was taking her children to Xiamen and would take three days off. The head teacher could only agree because she was not asking for leave, it was just a notice. After she came to school, her mother asked the three teachers in the WeChat group to please make up another get out of class for her! The three of us wanted to get angry, but then gave up. This saves parents from getting into trouble by taking screenshots of information. There is no way to make up lessons, and I don’t appreciate the efforts of our three teachers at all.

When my child was in first grade, he asked the teacher for leave to go on a trip. The head teacher said that he could go ahead and that his child would be able to keep up with the content. He also said that traveling with children is also a kind of learning.

Later, I changed my class teacher. When I was in fourth grade, I wanted to take my children to Beijing. The teachers did not agree with taking a day off, saying that it would affect learning.

I personally think that asking for leave to take children for travel depends on the actual situation of the child. As long as the child's grades can keep up, there is no problem in missing a day or two of classes.

Besides, how difficult can the content of primary school be? Especially for the first grade of primary school, parents can provide guidance at home.

However, when parents take their children to travel, they should be careful not to make their children feel that learning is not important. Therefore, try not to ask for leave to travel after the third grade. It is better to take your children during the winter and summer vacations.

This matter requires weighing the pros and cons. For example, choosing to take leave to travel may allow your children to experience a different life, learn about different customs, broaden their horizons, and let themselves go. And if you choose Some of the more challenging places can also hone the will, strengthen the physical fitness, and cultivate the children's perseverance and courage to challenge. It is still very helpful for the cultivation of the children's own personality, but there is a prerequisite, that is, the children are not good at learning. What's the problem? They have more self-control, but if the child himself has insufficient self-control in learning, he is easily distracted by some things, and does not develop good study habits. In this case, asking for leave to travel may have a negative impact on academic performance and If your study habits have a negative impact, you need to seriously consider whether the advantages outweigh the disadvantages or the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, and then choose your own answer based on the actual situation

Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles!

Not attending primary school classes for a week will have a very small impact on one's life, but a trip will definitely have a greater impact on one's life than one week of classes.

We took a leave of absence and went to Beijing one month after the first grade started. We did English alphabet exercises in Tiananmen Square and took many photos that will become permanent memories. When they get older, the child will definitely not do this anymore, so the missed time will no longer exist.

Moreover, we told the teacher openly that we were going to take leave to travel, and the teacher also forwarded the photo of our alphabet exercises in WeChat Moments.

When I asked for leave, the teacher’s attitude was very supportive. Go ahead and have fun!

As for whether it will affect learning, I think the teacher will naturally make judgments. If the teacher objects, we should have an in-depth discussion with the teacher to determine whether it is because of his concept or because the child's learning cannot be delayed.

If you disagree with my point of view, wait until your child is in junior high school or high school before thinking about what I said. Time will tell everything.

In late spring and early summer, we are setting off again to Xi'an to see what China has been like for thousands of years.

I just went to Xi'an again in May 2019. During the winter and summer vacations, I went to places like the Terracotta Warriors and Horses just to see the backs of other people's heads. When these two photos were posted, everyone said there were so few people! As for academics, it can be said that English and mathematics have far exceeded the level of the school (at a glance), and Chinese took one day to complete a week's homework.
