The most educated country in the world has actually adopted the philosophy of Confucius two thousand years ago.

By my side, many mothers get excited as soon as they talk about their children's education.

The words "other people's children" are the most exciting words for mothers: the number of English words of other people's children, the number of musical instruments that other people's children can play, and whether their fart smells good or not. ...

When I got home at night, I saw the baby dawdling and began to write. After observing for a while, I found that the child moved everywhere except the brain ... I sat patiently and silently said "I was born". After approaching, I found that the child was moving all over, but the homework did not move. ...

The moment of volcanic eruption has finally arrived.

The more you get to the dead of night, the more you can hear the screams of mothers outside the window, and the tone changes from righteous to hysterical.

Let's make a hypothesis: can children be "scum" again?

If a child lies on the classroom floor during the day and has no talent show until the third or fourth grade, will you have a heart attack every minute?

Recently, in a documentary called Foreign Childhood, Starcat's director found that Finnish children are like this "bear" almost every day. However, it does not affect children's good grades and strong creativity. ...

You know, Finland is recognized as the "most powerful country in education" in the world, and even a strong country in education can "tolerate" children. So, should we reflect on the mode of getting along with children at ordinary times?

Class in bed, yes.

Wear strange clothes, no problem.

In a primary school in the capital of Finland, it's time for class and the school doesn't ring. It's not a harsh bell, it's class music.

Teachers can play all kinds of music as classroom music at will, which can be classical music, folk songs, rap, or play or sing by themselves.

In the third grade class, the teacher prepared the topic "Time, Age and Me".

The children are very casual in class. They can eat and take off their shoes. There is also a girl wearing the strange clothes of the little witch. ...

A child simply hangs upside down on the desk. Even so, no one will turn their attention to him.

Because everyone's brain will follow the teacher, children with iPad will also play a role in class.

The teacher will let each child record his/her voice on the iPad, or take a photo for himself/herself to confirm "his/her current age and himself" ... These are all carried out in line with the teacher's classroom theme, so the child will not be criticized.

"The distance from your wrist, from your chin to your middle finger is the length of your face."

"You can touch your ears by touching them slowly from your eyes, so draw your ears at the same height as your eyes."

"What kind of face beast is most suitable for Finland's long winter life? Is the heat dissipation area on the face narrower? "

Teachers guide or ask questions in these ways to help children know themselves, learn knowledge from real life and then apply it to real life.

Finnish children seem to be casual in class, but the topic extends after class, and no one will associate children with "no rules".

In order to let children understand the abstract concepts of "age" and "time", the teacher led the children to an elderly service center to participate in activities.

Before entering the door, the teacher told the children not to "disturb the old people" and reminded them what manners to pay attention to before entering the door. The children seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately took off their hats.

This "hat-taking ceremony" can't be ignored even in cold winter.

There is no exam.

In ord to avoid any form of competition

In this film, there is no exam in primary schools in Finland, because schools should avoid any form of competition among children.

The teacher said:

"The only thing we evaluate is not how much knowledge children have learned in the subject, but how they have learned?

How to partner with others? How to study in groups?

And a sense of responsibility in the face of tasks, which is very important in Finland. We call it positive education. "

The idea of active education is that even if a child is not good at math or science or art, he can still find his own ability in one aspect:

Maybe fair, maybe creative, or good at teamwork, or kind, persistent, curious, compassionate and caring. ...

Do you envy Finnish students?

In fact, there, not only students don't take exams, but teachers don't need to compete, but this doesn't mean that anyone can engage in education-related careers.

It is very difficult to get a teacher's qualification certificate in Finland, so many people who want to be teachers have been studying and trying to get the corresponding degrees.

Finns have their own understanding of exam competition, which stems from China's traditional concept of "pushing yourself and others":

Rani, a primary school teacher in Finland, said:

"If I don't take part in the competition, I can learn more.

If I always compare with others, even if I work hard, I will still be second. What would I think?

After becoming a teacher, I still insist on studying, but I don't need competition. Can I teach my children what I have learned? I need to improve myself. "

Walking on the streets of Finland, you can't even see luxury stores. Society pays attention to fairness, so wealth is not the main indicator of comparison. People may be more concerned about people's tastes and education.

In the 1970s, Finland carried out an important educational reform: all private schools and all primary schools were brought under government management and funded by the state, so that everyone could afford to go to school.

Their logic is: invest all the money in people, turn people into talents, and let them make money.

Without the pressure of exams, children's classes can happen anywhere. On this day, the teacher took the children into the forest.

The outdoor temperature is very low in winter, but in the teacher's view, as long as the sun comes out, the weather is "very warm".

When children enter the forest, their first task is to find something in the forest that matches the color on the color card issued by the teacher. In our stereotype, the forest is nothing more than green and earth tones.

But when children enter the forest, they find that even on a big tree, its roots, bark, fruit and needles can match several colors on the color card ... This kind of activity is participated in in reality, so that children can observe for themselves and draw the conclusion that there are many colors in the forest.

The next task is to find the smell and describe it in your own language. Children have no grandiose or lofty rhetoric, and what they feel will be expressed in the most direct language.

Some children smell "apple-flavored" bark in the forest, and some children use "wet trees" to describe the smell of roots; Other children said the smell of juniper was "strong".

In the forest, teachers don't ask children to say the exact names of plants, but use the most intuitive adjectives, such as "lovely things" and "disgusting things" ... If teachers can say these words, they will be very satisfied.

The purpose of forest class is not only to arouse children's five senses, but also to expect children to learn how to survive in the wild, know something about the forest, and let them know their relationship with nature, so as to learn to cherish and protect nature.

Where does the creativity of Finnish children come from?

Confucius Philosophy in China

What the children have to solve in this interest class is "suppose a plane crashes on a distant island and some cabins are still there, please design a building for the survivors".

The children began to design with the materials prepared in class: some children used a white rag to hold up a tent, so that the survivors would not be too hot under it; Other children set up several palm trees and coconut trees beside the tent to ensure that the survivors had fruit to eat. ...

Seeing the temporary buildings built by children, the teacher mentioned some physical concepts, such as the tension and balance of tents.

Children appreciate the beauty of architecture when they do it themselves and learn some architectural principles at the same time.

Banners and slogans rarely appear on Finnish campuses. The headmaster said: "There are many empty walls on campus, but they can't be pasted because architectural design is also an art."

They attach great importance to the cultivation of human aesthetic feeling. There are many museums in Finland, and one museum has a strange shape. On Facebook, it specially wrote "Welcome children to climb here".

In their minds, not only exhibitions for children are called exhibitions, but many exhibitions can be visited by children. You can see this thing anytime and anywhere, so you can cultivate a natural aesthetic feeling.

When Starcat's director lamented the strength of Finnish education, he was moved by the words of a Finn.

He said:

"China and Finland have many similarities. Two thousand years ago, Confucius said,' Knowing is not as good as being kind, and being kind is not as good as being happy.' Finns believe this view very much, so they follow Confucius' philosophy. "

Parents hit their children on the head? Interview!

From 65438 to 0990, Beijinger Zhang Yufei came to Finland, married a Finnish girl and gave birth to three children. When my daughter was 6 years old, my father once accompanied her to do math. My daughter said that she didn't like doing it. The father was a little anxious and hit his daughter on the forehead.

After the teacher knew it, he immediately reported it to the local child protection department. Zhang Yufei and his wife were specially arranged for four conversations, each lasting two or three hours.

In Finland, any violence against children, including verbal violence, is not allowed.

Parents should treat their children like adults, and it is never empty talk to respect them.

Finns themselves believe that the biggest difference between them and Americans is that they will not pursue pure equality and will not talk about "I love you" when they meet every day.

Now some parents want to be friends with their children too much. It's good to be careful, but there must be rules and boundaries.

After all, parents are not children's best friends. What parents can do is to help their children survive in society.

Parents need to master a balance and should not let their children break the boundaries at will. However, parents can discuss with their children where the boundaries are and why they exist.

Children should understand the significance of these boundary settings, not just what I told you, but why.

Last year, urqui, President of Bikesi Group Asia-Pacific Region, was in the forefront of Finland's national tax rankings.

He started from scratch, everything started from scratch, and he started working almost from birth, so despite his rich family, he asked his children like this.

My son likes a pair of Nike shoes before 15. His parents didn't buy it directly because it was very expensive. Yu told his son that he could go out to work at this age. In this way, my son delivered the newspaper for five hours and fulfilled his wish.

I don't bear a grudge against my father's stingy son. Instead, he would say, "Because I earned the money myself, I know it is difficult."

Usually, dad will let his children work in Starbucks and McDonald's. In my father's mind, my children's work experience is very valuable.

On one occasion, children went home to complain that the boss was bad, thinking that the people hired by the boss were bad and went to work without proper training.

Yu Jill seized the opportunity to ask the child, "What would you do if you were the boss?" The child thought about it and gave the answer.

Dad praised the child: "Great. You are not just thinking about how to make a hamburger, you are thinking about what you would do if it were your own business. "

A dialogue helps children broaden their horizons and broaden their minds. This may be a fleeting "educational opportunity" between parents and children, only to see if you can seize it.

Finland is a little different from us, but after watching this movie, you will re-examine the educational methods and children's learning purposes. The ultimate goal of study is to make a living. You won't be too disappointed if you know this purpose clearly.

In our daily life, we can also make some improvements. For example, as parents, we should give our children more respect, protect their curiosity and let them grow into what they should be.

After all, the future is not limited to a mold, and the future can be expected. Let the children return to the original appearance, which is what every parent should do.

Star cat said

There is a girl in the kindergarten class next door. Every day when I come home from work, the girl will practice the piano until late ... I feel a little sorry for her and her parents. Loosely binding children is also laissez-faire.
