Nurture neighborly dreams
Netizens asked: In the third grade of primary school, children are required to memorize an ancient poem every day, is it necessary?
Reply: Education: What you learn is not necessarily useful, and if you don't learn, you will be deficient. Because human society is evolving and developing non-stop for a moment, no one can determine what is useful in the future and what will not be used in the future.
Tenth bun: Suppose someone goes to the bun shop to eat buns, and when they eat the tenth bun, they find that they are full. So, did the nine buns he ate in front of him all in vain? Is it also possible for him to eat the tenth bun directly?
Life is endowed with a combination of natural substances with the ability to reproduce + growth cycle + a small part of the self-healing function that damages itself. Plants absorb water-soluble microminerals from natural substances combined with photosynthesis to produce life nutrients, animals feed directly or indirectly on plants, microorganisms live in plants or animals... In the natural material world, the comprehensive survival of all living individuals must be passively adapted and actively claimed after birth. Humans are the community-based fetal mammals with the highest IQ, the slowest growth and development, and the strongest comprehensive growth plasticity in the natural life system.
Domestication sowing plants to harvest grain, taming captive animals for meat, using abstract characters + pronunciation + allegory to record production labor and life experience, using natural material processing to make production labor and life aids... Humans are the only social mammals in the natural life system that have the ability to systematically transform their living environment according to their own thinking consciousness. Therefore, modern human society has created a large number of irrational consumer demand.
Human ancestors born in primitive forests learned to pick plant fruits + hunt other animals + defend against predators and other survival skills, and the vast majority of children born in the agricultural period followed their parents to learn to domesticate and sow plants + tame captive animals + process and produce labor and life aids, the longer the evolution of human social civilization, the more wisdom knowledge left for children to "learn to be prepared". At present, the wisdom knowledge for mainland children to "learn to spare" includes the world's mainstream languages: Chinese + English + French + German + Spanish + Russian + Arabic, up to dozens of kinds, music: piano + drum kit + violin + guzheng + flute + erhu + guitar + singing, dance: classical dance + ballet + folk dance + modern dance + tap dance + jazz dance + street dance, fine arts: ink painting + oil painting + gong pen painting + sculpture, sports: Chinese chess + chess + Go + swimming + rock climbing + Boxing + martial arts + table tennis + badminton + swimming + jump rope + ice and snow sports and hundreds of other small sports...
The Jin Dynasty writer and philosopher Fu Xuan pointed out in the "Prince Shao Fu Zhen": "Near Zhu is red, near ink is black; sound and harmony are clear, and the shape is straight." "Tell people that a person living in a good environment will be affected by good, living in a bad environment will also be affected by bad, emphasizing the comprehensive impact of the environment on people's learning and growth." Humans are the social mammals with the highest IQ in the natural life system, and the most typical feature of human high IQ is that they have a strong ability to actively imitate.
Learn to walk upright with the appearance of your parents, imitate the emphasis of your parents to learn to use human language, learn to complete the basic self-care ability of life like your parents... Every child's civilized survival skills stem from imitation practice after birth. However, every child does not set clear application goals at the beginning of learning comprehensive basic survival skills, such as learning to walk upright, only a very few people will become track and field athletes; learning to use human language, only a very small number of people will make a living from speech & writing; 1 billion people in China are estimated to play table tennis, but there are only a thousand professional table tennis players.
In the long process of life practice, human beings have refined and converged the morphology + trait + function of specific realistic materials into abstract symbols + pronunciation + allegory, thus forming an abstract social civilization unique to human beings, and the procedural material entity formed by human social civilization - > material use - > abstract characters [including allegory + pronunciation] - > civilization achievements. Therefore, the complete human language text includes three core elements of characters, pronunciation, and allegory, such as:
Man, pronounced rén, refers to a highly intelligent viviparous mammal that walks upright, can make and use tools for productive labor
Pigs, read zhū, are omnivorous fetal mammals that are kept in captivity by humans and have become the main source of human meat
Chicken, pronounced jī, is a poultry with a short beak, a slightly curved upper mouth, a red meat crown on its head, and no high flying
Cattle, pronounced niú, a herbivorous fetal mammal, are kept in captivity by humans as an important source of animal power + meat in daily life

The vast majority of learning exists as a backup
"The Teacher Says"
The ancient scholar must have a teacher. Teachers, so preaching is also karmic to solve puzzles. Whoever is not born to know can be confused? If you are confused and do not follow the teacher, you will be confused and will not be solved in the end. Before I was born, my hearers also preceded me, and I learned from them; after I was born, I also heard the Tao before me, and I learned from them. My master Daoye, fu Yong knows that his years were born in my lifetime? Therefore, there is no nobility, no low, no length, no less, the existence of the Tao, the existence of the teacher.
Teachers, preaching, receiving karma, solving puzzles. Education is the comprehensive performance art of parents and teachers using the mature social civilization achievements known to human society, through the comprehensive performance art of acting practices such as essential explanation + behavior demonstration + practice guidance, giving children the ability to survive independently and autonomously, and the role of education in the child's life growth journey is like a wisdom guide, guiding and assisting children to fully & quickly perceive the world and integrate into the world. Therefore, the basic process of education work and the "reverse" project of the evolution of human social civilization, education starts from teaching children to read, and gradually combines writing with life practice. When parents teach their children to read, they usually first pronounce the pronunciation of certain words in the child's ear for a long time, and then show the corresponding character to the child, and finally explain the meaning of this character to the child, for example, every Chinese child first listens to the parents constantly reading dad /mother in the ear, and then they also follow the reading dad/mom, and finally gradually understand who the dad/mom is and what the meaning is.
The story of the wolf child
In 1920, in a mountain village near Kolkata, India, two human children were found in the wolf pack, kamala, eight, and Amara, 6. When the wolf child was first discovered, his life habits were the same as that of wolves, walking on all fours, sleeping during the day, coming out at night, afraid of fire + afraid of light and water, only knowing that he was hungry and looking for food + sleeping when he was full, not eating vegetarian food and only eating raw meat (no need to hold it, putting it on the ground and tearing it open with his teeth to eat), not using human language + howling like a wolf after midnight...
Francis Bacon said: "Reading history makes one wise, reading poetry makes one wise, mathematics makes one thorough, science profound, ethics makes one solemn, and logic makes one argumentative." Whoever learns something becomes a character. "Children born in China speak Chinese + write square characters + use chopsticks, children born in the UK speak English + write ABC + use knives and forks, children born in India speak Hindi + write + eat pilaf ... Although, the story of the wolf child is difficult to distinguish between true and false. But it tells people a real life scenario – for children, what the living environment after birth teaches them and what they can learn. If there is no teaching, even the children with the highest IQ and the best ability to actively imitate themselves will not be able to become talents on their own.
The ancients on the mainland often used the metaphor of "flowing water is not corrupt, the household center is not beetle" to compare the vitality of animals that are often in motion in order to maintain health and vitality. Similarly, the core of the smooth and orderly operation of the human individual brain is that the human brain has two basic functions: memory and forgetting. Memory, in the process of human practice, has the ability to recognize and redo the things that have been experienced; forgetting, daily life, the human brain will actively filter out those things that are reproduced very low in order to make room for the brain to accept new life things. Forgetting is the opposite of memory, it occurs after memory, and when information is input into the brain to form a memory, forgetting begins.
The water absorbed by plants is evaporated with photosynthesis, the food that animals eat into the body is consumed with life activities, and the oil added with power intelligent machinery is burned with mechanical rotation... Similarly, human material food begins to be digested from the moment it is ingested, and spiritual food begins to be forgotten from the moment memory begins. But who thinks that eating will also be hungry, it is better to save the trouble of sowing grain + captive animals, cooking + eating? Education is not only about teaching knowledge that is certain to be used in the future, nor is it just about learning knowledge that will be useful in the future. Because human society is evolving and developing non-stop for a moment, no one can determine what is useful in the future and what will not be used in the future. Therefore, education: what is learned is not necessarily used, and if it is not learned, there will be a shortage.
The mission of nurturing neighbors: to be a sparring partner and consultant on the road to children's growth.
The vision of nurturing neighbors: let there be no small and difficult old people in the world.
Children's growth is like a century-old tree, which needs to experience wind and rain. For parents, you need to be patient enough to accompany them. Accompanying children requires care, and companionship is more than just care. When many people choose to go home to accompany their children, I choose to come to Beijing to do a career to accompany more children - to cultivate neighbors: to promote social harmony with neighborhood friendliness, to promote social moral education, and to promote the healthy and happy growth of everyone. Explore a set of public welfare and inclusive education undertakings that solve the problem of "one-child syndrome + intergenerational education" in the form of neighborhood mutual assistance, and work with parents to "tailor" children's growth plans to provide children with games, cooperation and shared growth space... That is, the community neighborhood education service ecosystem.
