学校的使命:建立孩子的信心
Confidence
A poster in the auditorium was taken down, wrapped, and sent up the school bus for a student today. What was the reason?
The student had been performing poorly and seemed to have lost confidence in himself. He had lost interest in learning. His mother had been very upset after hearing the teacher’s report about his performance or rather, lack of it. Which parent would not feel sad when the child is feeling this way?
This student had, about a year ago, performed in the auditorium for the school. He was full of confidence then. A picture of him playing on the piano was taken, made into a poster and hung in the auditorium.
To remind him of his past glory, the principal had asked for the poster to be taken down and given to him as a present today. His mother was pleasantly surprised at his change when she came home in the evening. Her son was so motivated, he got ready to go for piano class without her nagging at him and he had asked his piano teacher to rewrite 3 songs so that he could practice and be ready to perform in the school anytime he is needed.
A thankful mother, a motivated student, resulted from a thoughtful gesture.
今天,一张悬挂在学校礼堂墙壁的巨型海报被校长取下,包裹,并送到一个学生的校车上,让他带回家去。校长为何这么做呢?
原来,校长近来察觉该学在课业上表现得不好,对自己似乎失失去了信心。班主任跟家长沟通,说明这个事实,妈妈承受不了,连打带骂,孩子的信心再次深陷谷底,一蹶不振。
校长记得一年前,该名学生,曾经在学校礼堂为全校表演钢琴演奏曲子。曲子悠扬悦耳,惊动四方。信心满满的他,当然成为摄影同事的焦点。校长见照片的效果特佳,因此制成了一张巨型海报,悬挂在礼堂。
知道他对学习失去了信心,校长为了唤起他当初的“风光”,把巨型海报摘下,送给了他。当天晚上,也是例常的钢琴课,在没有妈妈(平日)唠叨以及“恐吓”下,孩子主动要求早点到钢琴老师的住家上课。他要求老师为他编组3首曲子,当场练习,据说,练习的程度叫人惊讶。因为他说他要预备好,随时应邀上台再为全校师生表演。
一位感恩的母亲,一位再次寻找信心的学生,都是从一个微不足道的举动引发的。。。
