Nandu News Reporter Liang Yanyan Correspondent Bi Rui "Every grain is hard" is no longer a distant poem, but a hard work mixed with various indescribable smells and physical exertion in the real experience. From the 24th to the 27th of this month, the students of the second grade of Nanhai Zhixin Middle School ushered in four consecutive days of extracurricular practical activities with the theme of "learning to farm", and a special class began at the school vegetable garden sub-base. Picking up dead leaves, cutting firewood, farming in the fields, hoeing grass and cutting seedlings, picking up manure and composting...
From the lotus pond to the farmland vegetable field, from moving the dust, shoveling soil to handling, the students divided their work and cooperated, the mud stained the school uniform and glued to the shoe edge, and the rough and bulky agricultural tools were also flexible and skilled in the hands. From making a fire to washing vegetables, from cutting vegetables and putting them on the plate to wielding a spoon and shovel, the students took matters into their own hands and went into the farmhouse to cook. Liu Junren, a student in the second (2nd) class of high school, said that the main task of their class was to dig the pond mud. "Pond mud is mainly distributed near the shallow banks of the river, the soil is relatively loose, if you are not careful, you will fall into it and cannot extricate yourself, and we also need to move the dug pond mud to a destination more than ten meters away, most of the way is protruding tree roots, scattered distribution." Liu Junren said that everyone had a tacit understanding of the division of labor, flexibly exchanged positions, and the number of pond mud digging eventually broke the record and set a new high. "400 baskets, super record." Li Xiangyi, a classmate in the same class, said excitedly.
The students of the sixth class of the second year of high school said that the class was assigned to the most resistant but most anticipated dung picking project. At first, the students were very resistant, all wearing masks and covering their mouths and noses, afraid that they would get a little disgusting thing on them. But after picking a few groups, the competitive spirit of some groups came up, one by one rushing to run, rushing to queue, thinking of becoming the first place. Liu Mingzhou said that the students cooperated with each other, divided their work and cooperated, and became more and more energetic. From the beginning of the full pit to the slow bottom, there is a great sense of accomplishment.
The school said that students can internalize and skill the knowledge they have learned in labor, and experience the joy of labor in practice, while also giving full play to the educational function of labor. The school launched the "Vegetable Garden Sub-Project", which specially set aside a piece of land for students to sow, water, loosen the soil, weed and fertilize themselves. Through these activities, students learn about the growth process of crops, realize the hard-won success of each meal, and thus learn to cherish food, develop frugal habits, and make labor a normal way of life. "At first, the students were ready to go, and everyone was full of joy, thinking it was an autumn excursion. But after arriving at the school farm site, looking at the firewood to be collected, some children could not help but show a surprised look, 'This is going to be picked up from dead branches and leaves!' After the general affairs teacher gave the demonstration, he couldn't let go at first, and tried to pick it up with two fingers. But gradually, under the leadership of the group leaders, more people were picked up, and the children gradually threw themselves into it. Yao Jing, a teacher of the 13th class of the second year of high school, said that the most unexpected thing is that the enthusiasm of the students to collect firewood in the back is high, but the rope is not enough. Some groups made a deal, asking for a rope for a bundle, of course, no group was willing, at this time, the friends, sprinkles of one after another, very happy. "For students, learning to farm is a hard ordeal, a new experience, and a fulfilling and colorful collective life. The children not only experienced the hardships of learning to farm, but also felt the strength of the team. ”
