How does a class teacher do a good job in mental health education for left-behind children?

(1) Strengthen close contact and communication with left-behind children.

Without the care of parents, the left-behind students are lonely, and the care between teachers and students can make up for this defect to some extent. As a teacher, we should treat students as friends, approach them actively, spend more time in contact with them, create more time and opportunities to talk and communicate with them, and pay more attention to their moral development and spiritual needs. Take their difficulties to heart, do everything possible to help them solve some practical problems, and even give them special care, so that they can treat you as a bosom friend, be willing to tell you the truth and pour out their troubles, anger and sadness to you; Create more pleasant and harmonious occasions at ordinary times, such as singing, playing games and working with them. These are the best opportunities to contact and communicate with them and really become their mentors.

(2) Strengthen communication with parents of left-behind children and help them build a bridge of spiritual communication.

The guardian's long-term contact with left-behind students has a great influence. Their words and deeds have a subtle influence on children. Being a good guardian, family education is half the battle. You can know the situation of students left behind at home through guardians and keep abreast of their ideological trends. At the same time, we can also understand the guardian's attitude towards children's education and management, so as to guide the guardian in educational methods more pertinently.

Children's education experts believe that for babies, parental education is as important as breast milk. Parental education of left-behind students is still an indispensable part of family education. Left-behind children can communicate with their parents by phone or letter at any time, and parents often use their own situation outside to influence and educate their children. Therefore, the teacher should know the phone number or work address of the parents of the left-behind students. If education is needed at ordinary times, teachers can immediately establish direct contact with the parents of left-behind students. In this way, teachers, parents and guardians can educate the left-behind students, overcome the shortage of family education without parents, and make them develop in a healthy direction.

(3) Offering courses related to left-behind children.

Left-behind children in rural areas are vulnerable groups in society, and their lack of parenting education will exist for a long time with the urbanization process. Because it involves many families, it has a wide range and far-reaching influence, which has aroused widespread concern and thinking in society. It is a long and complicated process to solve the problem of parenting education's absence of left-behind children in rural areas, and it is also an extremely important work to improve the quality of the whole people, maintain social stability and promote the construction of a harmonious society.

Therefore, the school should set up psychology courses according to the law of physical and mental development of left-behind children, and guide them to spend the critical period of life development healthily. Schools should set up special psychological education teachers, so that they can work with other teachers to help children solve explicit and implicit psychological problems and help children develop healthily and harmoniously. You can also offer some courses such as safety education and legal education, and use parenting education to compensate families and left-behind children who are absent from parenting education.

(d) Trying to establish a paternalistic system.

That is, teachers pair up with left-behind children, and teachers, as parents, are responsible for the whole process from learning to life. This is an important measure for schools to help, educate and manage left-behind children and solve the worries of migrant farmers. In some schools, the head teacher is responsible for the care of left-behind children. Teachers and children are paired, and the responsibility of care is entrusted to others. Escrow parents, to a certain extent, play the role of parents, so that left-behind children who are far away from their parents can get more care and care in their lives, get more help and guidance in their studies, and get more communication and comfort in their emotions, so that left-behind children who are absent from family and parenting education can get better educational compensation and create a harmonious space for their healthy growth.
