Do the initial heart of public welfare, don't be overjoyed.
It is often questioned that "public welfare is the patent of philanthropists, and you can't help it." Instead of working hard to do public welfare on weekends and holidays, it is better to make money first, and then donate after making a fortune. "Every time this time, I will think of a short story.
A story deeply influenced me:
One morning, the sea ebbed, and the beach was full of "stranded" fish, which were about to dry up. At this time, a little boy was on the shore, picking up the fish one by one and throwing them back into the sea. An adult came up and said disdainfully, "There are so many fish on the beach. Who cares if you can save a few? " Holding the fish, the little boy said firmly, "This one cares! This concern "...
This cares, this cares ... Why don't children care? I am willing to contribute more value as much as I can. Every child is a champion. This summer, when I saw the feedback after the end, tears filled my eyes. As a team leader, in the past half month, I participated in a whole year of public welfare training for the smooth progress of voluntary teaching in Guizhou. From team building training to mind mapping, from children's cognition to reading skills, what I have learned is useful. The first time I took 17 energetic college students to the countryside, I secretly decided that I would try my best to lead the team.
After 24 hours of green leather train+CMB+hiking, we all came to Bailu Primary School in Baizhai Township, Guizhou Province.
This article will mainly post some feedback from players, who are ordinary sophomores and juniors.

"Having spent more than a month and a half in a summer camp in Guizhou is like a dream for me-there are terraced fields, green mountains and green waters, and innocent smiling faces of children in the sea of clouds. I really set off for Guizhou in July, but I actually felt very different. The second day of the final exam started directly-it was really full from the first day of the summer vacation. The train went all the way to the southwest, and many green mountains and green waters passed by the window; The winding road around the mountain twists and turns and looks like a deep river; Walking on the mountain road with a heavy load, my waist is not straight, and I look down at the road ahead and my own shadow in the sun. From Guangzhou to Bailu Primary School in Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou Province, I didn't expect the bumpy journey before the interview, during the May Day training, or even during the training. When we finally arrived at the destination Bailu Primary School, although the school building was old and tilted, ah-those enthusiastic children immediately comforted our hearts.

It is these eight hours of climbing mountains and mountains that triggered the feeling that "how can there be so many magical villages and families in such a deep mountain" and "how can people who walk in nature have the idea that human beings can dominate nature" and "how many generations of terraces have been cultivated and passed down from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain?"
I've always wondered why some people are poor and others are rich. Excluding all kinds of external factors, I think the inside is a cultural attribute of myself. Is the cultural attribute based on people's will, so it can't change fate? However, I found a way, that is, reading. We should cultivate a bookish spirit, because bookish spirit is the most beautiful temperament. So I resolutely signed up for this reading summer camp.
Children's innocence, kindness and enthusiasm touch us all the time, but at the same time we can't ignore the hidden sadness behind their growth. We deeply understand the regional disparities in education. We pity the children here for their poor background. We are worried about whether it is necessary for them to get out of the mountains, whether they can get out of the mountains, how to get out of the mountains, and what kind of help we should give to help them better and more directly.

"What moved me most was the' Thanksgiving Circle' activity. When the BGM sounded slowly in the mobile phone, we closed our eyes and formed a big circle, listening to one question after another. I have been unfamiliar since mid-July, and then every day is relative. Everyone's face, the mountain road we climbed together, the meals we cooked together, our regular meeting together, playing werewolves on the playground together, watching the sunset and the starry sky together, all the scenes reappeared in front of my eyes. " Tears naturally fell down ... years later, when I think back to this time, maybe many details are blurred, but I still remember a summer and a day. "

How lucky I am to meet such a wonderful group of people this summer, and how lucky I am to listen to your stories ~ Many, many years later, I should still remember those nights when I listened to stories while counting meteors, the starry sky I talked at night, the red, professional and dirty routine, and the awe, cherish, gratitude and touch you taught me. This group of boys and girls with stories, I wish you a more exciting life and more stories to tell. ...

"But it backfired. After I came to Bailu Primary School, I didn't say that the beauty of the terraced fields in the sea of clouds was cured. I said that every teammate was in a state of enthusiasm like chicken blood, which was surprisingly friendly and mutual love. I prepare lessons passionately every day, munch on potatoes and rice, talk about the "dry toilets" where mosquitoes are flying in groups, mingle with my children, share this beautiful and moving day at the regular meeting at eight o'clock every day, and then move small stools in groups of three and five, listening to each other's stories under the starry sky, reminding me of a sentence, that is, the years are quiet. "

After talking about children, my teammates brought me a lot of feelings, but at the same time my teammates brought me more thoughts. In the study of success, people are encouraged to make friends with people who are much better than themselves, because the sense of gap is enough for one to work hard. Miss Zheng Xiao, dry goods are really enough, and I know a lot of knowledge. At this time, I will reflect on my lack of learning; Seeing Rourou often revising lesson plans, he will reflect on whether he has been responsible for his children and whether he has paid for everything he has done. Seeing the little dragon girl's divination, I will think, in such a beautiful time, have I insisted on doing what I really love? What do I really love? ......

On the starry night talk last night, the captain asked me what impressed me most about my teaching this summer. I said starry sky and toilet. In such a primitive place as Bailu Village in Nanzhai Township, the scenery is the most healing! Every morning, there are stars, meteors and even the Milky Way in the terraced fields of the sea of clouds, and every night. These are the most beautiful and shocking scenery I have seen in my life for more than 20 years! I may never go to such a place again in the future, and I will never wait for an opportunity to find grass to go to the toilet; Take the rugged mountain road to the canteen to buy the cheapest snacks; Get up at 5 am to make a fire and cook a big pot of rice; Squatting behind a piece of black plastic cloth to take a bath; Wash clothes by the ditch, next to chickens, cocks and hens; Eat rice and drink porridge with sugar; Take a cucumber and eat it directly; A group of people went to see the beautiful sunset; The children led the way to another village to play and were warmly treated by a simple and enthusiastic villager; There is also the son of the owner of the canteen, a college student who returned to his hometown during the summer vacation, and he is talkative and sincere; Simple children in the mountains, climbing trees to swim, eating in class, will still fold beautiful flowers with colored paper when you leave, write childish but touching words, and then hand them to you inadvertently; Of course, there are 15 teammates with different personalities ... All this, about Bailu Primary School in Bailu Village, Nanzhai Township, Jianhe County, Qiandongnan Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province, may never be seen again in this life, but it will never be forgotten.

I have to say that the system of the Youth Leadership Program has always been a very moving part of me, so the team leaders and course leaders have devoted their efforts to everything brought by the team. I am very grateful to the summer camp for meeting these two dazzling stars, and I am glad to see a group of new stars shining with their own unique light.

Feedback: Child: I teach the fourth grade. In fact, the fourth-grade children began to be naughty at the end of the summer camp. Because the children are familiar with each other, they can still make noise in class. The teacher actually spent a little more time later.

Dear child, I finally meet you. Facts have proved that the photos on the postcard are not deceptive. Clarity is a feeling that only children's eyes can emit. They have the label characteristics of the so-called mountain children, but they also have their own specialties.
1 1.
They love to play, they are competitive, and sometimes they don't want to think, but this is not all children's nature. After all, they are just children. However, they seem to be more than just children. The candy they receive should be left to their younger brothers, who will quietly bring back gifts to their sisters when they go to the market. They seem to be more engaged and mature than their urban peers who have been away from their parents for many years.

"The biggest regret of the whole summer camp is that the class contract was not done well, which led to poor discipline in the whole class. In fact, playing is a child's nature. They just lacked some guidance, and I didn't do it well, which really delayed the whole camp course. . . Everything didn't start so smoothly, whether it was potatoes that could never be bought in food or classroom effects that could never achieve the expected results in the course. The courses prepared at the beginning were really out of touch with the children's lives, which led to the lack of interest of the children in class two days ago. At that time, I was envious of the sixth-grade teachers, and I was touched every day. Joke with teammates every day: "It's different to eat for one more year. "But I still secretly made up my mind to have a good class and let the children think that we are not here to play."

They really didn't let me down. Although I lack thinking in class, my concentration and sincerity in class make me feel very happy. I don't think I brought them anything, but they moved me and my happiness was full. I have gained a lot ... I believe I will go back and see those kind and simple children.

The conditions and environment of six primary schools in Guizhou are relatively poor and backward, and the children here are also lack of knowledge. I talked about the highest mountain in China in class. They didn't know it was Mount Qomolangma, but I talked about the changing history of Mount Qomolangma and the Himalayas. They knew it used to be the sea, and they said they had seen it in an encyclopedia. At that moment, I seemed to understand the significance of summer camp centered on promoting reading. We have come a long way to bring the outside world, more knowledge and brand-new books to the children here. Only those who have experienced this know the meaning and value behind it.

Unlike some partners, I don't doubt the existing reading promotion mode of Mantianxing and the changes it can bring to children, but this is really my first time to really get in touch with the current education situation in rural areas, and I am really saddened by the unfairness of education. I just finished reading an article today about the universal creativity and potential of all children. Only resources can really make a difference. I know that the unfairness of education depends on the unfairness of economy, which will return to the development of rural areas. I finally understand that everything you touch is silently connected. What I want to do, whether it is rural construction, education or ecology, is still the same in the final analysis. . . Back to the main course in the camp, my own course is not much different from the teaching plan. I only revised the contents of two courses, probably because I had the most exposure to theme stories before, which is obviously the most handy class I have ever taken. In the process of preparing lessons, I really want to make a comprehensive practice of what I have been exposed to in the past two years, so I have a lot of courses on environmental protection and nature, but in the end, because I can't talk about it alone, I deleted my notes on a natural course, which is a pity. But in eco-games, leaf collage and environmental reading, I see that rural children feel much more deeply about nature than urban children, and they also feel their natural interest in this aspect. Unfortunately, there are fewer guides. Perhaps it will be a good attempt for children to promote local natural courses in rural areas, and institutions can also do similar systematic curriculum development. Another main line of the camp is to get along with children. I am trying to maintain this relationship by my own understanding, that is, to do my own class well and bring some changes and influences to my children. Therefore, I lost the initiative to get along with them from the beginning and forgot the most trusted sentence "Maybe children just need companionship". I also feel the impact of the lack of this part on both of us. Although I don't regret keeping my distance, I regret not observing them more attentively. For me as a teacher for the first time, the road is really long.

Harvest: the changes that have taken place in children may not be visible to the naked eye, but it is possible that at some moment when children make some choices in the future, they suddenly think of what the teacher taught us to do and how to choose that summer. I hope that in the hearts of children, the knowledge and truth we shared with them in the summer camp will find a place to take root quietly and slowly in the long years to come.

With some efforts, things are getting better. What impressed me the most was that after reading Revenge of the Prince, the children asked me, "Where did you find this book? I want to know the whole story. " Knowing that it was in the library, with my permission, a large group of bees flocked to the library. After they arrived at the library, I froze for 2 seconds and began to secretly rejoice again. At that moment, I felt that all the efforts were worth it.

The children have taught me a lot. Ten children in grade six are very smart and sensible, among which Longcheng is the most naughty and loves reading. Tingting, a beautiful girl, has a peculiar scholar temperament. She is always smiling, better than a peach, and there seems to be a beautiful fairy tale in her eyes during class. Chang Pei, who loves origami, likes to speak cross talk on stage and is humorous. Deng Kai, a study committee member, is as considerate, reasonable, quiet and heroic as Kong Rong. Not only that, they are simple, lovely and have a sincere love for books. But I also found that they are very insecure, don't like thinking, and can't find the bright spot in themselves. Then I try to guide them in class.
"After volunteering, I think I will continue to help these rural children in another capacity. Of course, during the summer camp, we not only realized the importance of reading for children, but also gained a super invincible team. Help and encourage each other, simple and pure, just ten days, almost every day spent in laughter. This is a moment that people can cherish forever. "
