The mother of a 5th grade kidd me for a long consultation. She said that when a child asked her how to write a word, she would tangle with or not to ask the children to look up the dictionary.
This tangle is a lot to see. The word will not be written, mom 撂 next sentence: his dictionary to go - the purpose is to train children to check the dictionary's ability.
For first-graders, you have not learned how to search the dictionary. This is sometimes needed because the exams examine the dictionary and this is a skill check that requires assessment. But the role of the dictionary may be limited to this. Usually what word, the word does not grasp, check the dictionary, of course, the dictionary can, but it takes a minute or two, assuming that each word must check the dictionary processing, is it not the first big? Another way of thinking, baidu, perhaps can be pinched by phone Pinyin, still very convenient, save time.
What if Mom told me how to write? Is not it possible to help children save time doing homework!
The exam is usually not allowed to bring the dictionary, even if the band is allowed, there is no time to check. Less than the exam, the usual homework should not put a convenient way to use this backward method to do what?
This is the habitual thinking at play. People born in the 7th and 8th centuries must deal with many problems by looking up the dictionary, which was indeed a silent teacher at the time. So, take for granted that children have words that can not go to the dictionary. In fact, the times are not the same, in addition to the need for a more skilled grasp of the dictionary method, usually can throw away this method.
Habitual thinking is there, not to change, it stays in your understanding, continue to affect you.
A lot of homework needs to be emancipated. For example, in fact, many of the common sense of the school really for the exam. The details look so clear why use it? When you need to be more children in the future, baidu look, would not it be all done? As long as the exam can pass the examination, the details of knowledge points do not need to grasp so fine.
However, this point of view is only to talk about it. The reality of Chinese education has no choice but to put it there, and our next generation can not get rid of it for the time being.
