Story 1: Grandpa taught according to his talents and created the great scientists of ancient times
Statue of Zu Chong
When zu chongzhi is mentioned, he is a famous scientist in history. But do you know that when Zu Chongzhi was young, he did not love to read, and was often scolded by jackie chan's father, but the more his father scolded, the more he hated reading. It wasn't until his grandfather took over Zu Chongzhi's education that he opened his path to becoming a talent.
Zu Chong studied the natural sciences all his life, and his main contributions were in mathematics, astronomical calendar and mechanical manufacturing. He was able to achieve such an achievement because of his grandfather's unique way of education.
Zu Chongzhi was born in the Fanyang Zu clan and wrote in a distant manner. Born in 429, died 500. He was an outstanding mathematician of the Southern and Northern Dynasties period, and in the field of mathematics, he first calculated "Pi" to the seventh decimal place, that is, between 3.1415926 and 3.1415927, and the proposed "ancestral rate" made a significant contribution to the study of mathematics. This achievement, until the 16th century, was broken by the Arab mathematician Al Cassie.
However, when he was a child, Zu Chongzhi especially did not love to read, even if he was often scolded by his father, he did not love to read. Later, Zu Chongzhi's grandfather felt that his son's education method was wrong. He thought that "Zu Chongzhi can't read well, maybe he can do something else dexterously." As adults, we must carefully observe the child's interest and induce it. ”
Zu Chongzhi's grandfather was a senior official in charge of civil engineering in the imperial court, under this educational concept, he often brought Zu Chongzhi to the project site, where his grandfather found that his grandson showed a strong interest in various buildings, especially for astronomical knowledge, so his grandfather took Zu Chongzhi to visit the astronomer He Chengtian to learn astronomical knowledge. Astronomical knowledge is inseparable from mathematics, and Zu Chongzhi began to have a strong interest in mathematics.
In this way, under the guidance of his grandfather, Zu Chong's subsequent achievements far exceeded those of his grandparents and fathers, and became a generation of famous scientists.
This is a successful case of "teaching according to aptitude", and it is important to find the shining points in children for their growth.
Story 2: The father discovered that the children who scribbled and drew had talent and cultivated great mathematicians
Geometry
The child draws still life sketches, the sketch object is a vase full of autumn chrysanthemums, he draws chrysanthemums into large and small circles, and the leaves into strange triangles, in the face of this situation, what should we do?
This happened in the 19th century, when the child's parents found that the child had painted Qiu Ju into this "strange look", and instead of getting angry, they were very happy.
Why?
Because he felt that his child's work showed a sensitivity to geometric shapes, he concluded that the child had a talent for mathematics, and began to guide him to learn geometry and algebra to develop his mathematical ability.
Can the facts really be as this parent wishes?
Needless to say, his children really became famous mathematicians. This kid is Maxwell.
Maxwell's father can discover the child's talent from the child's actions.
More patience, more sensitivity, to discover the advantages of children, this ability, is really worth every educator, every parent to learn.
patience
