The practice of 3 primary school students "practicing stalls" in the downtown area on the weekend is really good

At 17:30 on October 31, in the commercial street of Zhongzhengtian Street in Yingze District, Taiyuan City, three third-grade students from Shuangdong Primary School were seriously selling all kinds of small goods that had just been stacked neatly on leisure benches to passers-by. The Shanxi Evening News reporter noted that because the sales location was exactly in the children's entertainment area of the commercial street, the 3 students were quickly watched. "Having such a business acumen at such a young age is not easy and must be supported!" Ms. Wang, a parent who is selecting products for her children, said.

Student: I want to make a try and experience the difficulty of making money for my parents

The Shanxi Evening News reporter saw that on a bench about two meters long, 3 students placed more than ten kinds of nearly 100 small commodities such as pumpkin lamps, magic hats, and dance masks neatly. At the same time, each commodity is clearly marked with a price, ranging from 5 yuan to 10 yuan.

"Auntie, you can choose a pumpkin lamp for your baby, there is a battery in it, it is beautiful when turned on, and the baby will like it." Yan Xiran, who has just sorted out the goods, has begun to seriously sell pumpkin lamps to a mother. After some haggling, the pumpkin lamp was successfully sold, "I am very happy, because this is the first social practice in my life, so no matter how much money I make and lose money, it is the result of my and my little partner's joint efforts!" ”

After nearly half an hour of sales and parents' "praise", nearly a hundred small commodities prepared on the spot have been sold nearly half, and the best-selling dance mask has been sold out, as a special responsible for "purchase" Zheng Shiyan excitedly told the Shanxi Evening News reporter, as the first attempt, selling more and selling less is not the focus, everyone just wants to experience the difficulty of parents making money through this attempt. "We did a lot of work in the early stage, such as how to shop around to select products, how to price each product, how to classify and place products, my mother is doing sales work, and now I can finally understand why my mother always comes out early and returns late, making money is really not an easy thing."

Parents: Help children complete their wishes and cultivate their children's ability to be independent

At 18:30 on October 31, after nearly an hour of "shouting" and busyness, it was time to "collect the stalls" agreed with the parents in advance, the three children began to pack goods and prepare to go home, and the parents of the children also came to the scene on time to prepare to pick up the children home.

Zheng Shiyan's mother, Ms. Fan, told the Shanxi Evening News reporter that as early as a week ago, the child looked at a cloak on the Internet and wanted Ms. Fan to buy it for her, but Ms. Fan's reply made Zheng Shiyan serious. "I told Shiyan that if I liked it, I could make money to buy it myself, but I didn't expect Shiyan to start acting the next day, and invited two classmates to complete this thing together." Just after forming a group, the three people made a clear division of labor, one was responsible for the selection of products, one was responsible for collecting money, and the other was responsible for sales, which really did a good job..."

Looking at the serious look of the three children, Ms. Fan decided to take the handle and help them complete this wish, "Looking at their seriousness, I also have to help them, first take the children to the small commodity city, shop around, help them choose good quality and fair price goods, and finally guide them to price the goods." ”

According to Ms. Fan, in order to cultivate their ability to think independently, in the process of pricing goods, Ms. Fan only gave a highest and lowest price range, and the final price is still grasped by three children, "The children have their own considerations, the final positioning is small profits and high sales, so the price of each product is set very reasonable, I think this is also the main reason why parents are willing to 'hold the scene'!" Genuine, fun and inexpensive! ”

Teacher: It is a good social practice, and I hope that parents can accompany you throughout the process

On November 1, in the office of the teaching and research group of Shuangdong Primary School, a reporter from Shanxi Evening News met Guo Tengfei, a teacher of ethics and rule of law class of Zheng Shiyan, Yan Xiran and Fan Dingwen.

After listening carefully to the weekend experience of the 3 students, Teacher Guo gave a high evaluation, "After the preliminary planning, reasonable allocation of work posts, and then to the selection and pricing of the goods together, the final realization of the successful sale of the goods." For these 3 students who are attending elementary school, it is undoubtedly a very good social practice. ”

Teacher Guo told the Shanxi Evening News reporter that for every child, the primary school stage and the middle school stage are the most important links in establishing a outlook on life and values, however, usually in this period, parents will pay too much attention to quality education, resulting in children forming an incomplete primary and secondary school experience. "Children often finish school classes, and they are also arranged by parents to fill all of their children's after-school life. Through these courses, although the children's various qualities have been improved, parents have ignored the most important point, that is, the children who are rapidly establishing their thinking and cognition at this stage are becoming more and more closed to themselves and less and less independent and incapable of acting independently. For example, do not like to communicate with strangers, poor self-care ability, do anything without opinion or need to wait for parents to arrange, etc. ”

Therefore, Teacher Guo believes that the special practical experience of Zheng Shiyan, Yan Xiran and Fan Dingwen should be encouraged, "not only to increase the ability to actively participate in social activities, but also through their own efforts, enhance the rich social experience and ability to communicate with strangers." ”

At the same time, for the social practice activities of primary and secondary school students, Teacher Guo also put forward his own suggestions: "Although children have the ability to think independently, they are still only seven or eight-year-old primary school students and belong to minors. Therefore, out of consideration for the safety of children, it is recommended that parents accompany them throughout the process and participate in social practice activities together. ”
