Chapter 433: Give the Children a Lesson
Yike found that there were more children in Taoyuan Village than before, and she also found her sister Han Guihua sitting on a stone bench watching the children.
She ran over happily, and the children were attracted by the sound of her running, so they all stopped what they were doing and looked over.
Then the former children all shouted loudly: "Teacher Yike, Teacher Yike is back."
"Teacher Yike."
"Teacher Yike is back."
"Hello, Teacher Yike."
The children gathered around her. Those surrounding her were the children she had taught before. The new children looked at them curiously from behind.
Han Guihua heard the voice and looked over, then immediately walked towards Yike happily.
Before Yi Ke could get close to Han Guihua, he was surrounded by children.
Yi Ke habitually reached into his pocket for some candy, only to find it was empty.
"Teacher Yike!"
"Hello, Teacher Yike!"
"Teacher Yike, you haven't taught us for a long time."
"Teacher Yike, we really want to take your class."
The children surrounded Yi Ke and shouted at him one by one. Yi Ke had no choice but to answer them one by one. Finally, he was forced to agree to teach them a lesson before the children were willing to disperse and play.
"Sister, I'm back."
"Sister, you are getting more and more beautiful."
"You're still the same, always chattering when I see you." Han Guihua pulled Yi Ke and looked her up and down, "Sister, is the food out there not good? How come you've lost so much weight? You've been out for too long this time, almost two months, I'm worried sick."
"Hehe, sister, are you worried about me or my brother-in-law? You know my brother-in-law is with Ziyi. But it's a pity that your worry is useless because my brother-in-law doesn't know. He didn't come in with us this time."
"Okay, you're getting more tired as you grow older, and you even start to make fun of me." Han Guihua pretended to hit Yike, but Yike dodged with a giggle, and the two sisters played around for a while.
A child came over and asked innocently, "Teacher Han, Teacher Yike, are you playing the game of catching chickens?"
Han Guihua awkwardly coaxed the child away, and Yike was so happy that he bent over with laughter.
"Laugh, laugh, just laugh. When your stomach hurts from laughing, you'll know you're crying." Han Guihua rolled her eyes at Yike and the other two.
"Sister, you are much more cheerful now. We two sisters are really so happy now. Do you feel this way?"
"Yes, when I first came here, I would always say this sentence before I closed my eyes to sleep: I will still be here when I wake up, and I must not change back. Life here is just like the paradise described in the textbooks. There is endless food, as much meat as you want, and money. I couldn't imagine the money before. I have been paid for a few months, and now the money I have saved from my salary is more than I can earn by working full work points outside for several years..." Han Guihua talked about the good things about Taoyuan Village, and she couldn't stop talking. If I didn't interrupt her, I was afraid that Han Guihua would say "I can't finish talking about it in three days and three nights."
"Sister, how many students are there now? It seems like there are a lot more children."
"Yes, there are a lot more. There are fifty-three of them, big and small, and a dozen of them are two or three years old. However, their parents have left them at home or taken them to work."
"Where did these children come from? Were they all picked up?"
"You guessed it right. A small number of children were brought here by their parents. Most of them are orphans, and most of them are girls."
"Then the burden on the village has increased again." Yi Ke sighed.
"Yes, these children are still too young to earn work points on their own. Uncle Du said that he would keep a record of them first and calculate based on the lowest standard, and they will pay it back when they grow up."
"Godfather, this is a good idea. Our village provides food and accommodation for those who work. No one can get something for nothing, even if it's a child. We need to let them know that there is no free lunch in the world."
"Sister, you are wrong. All three meals are not free. They are only free for those who work."
"Yes, sister is right, that's what I meant, nothing comes easy."
As the two sisters were talking, the school bell rang.
"This is the last class. Didn't you promise to teach them? It's just right that you can teach it in this class." Han Guihua suggested.
"Okay, then let's have the whole school go together, in the Great Hall, Kuanchang." Yi Ke thought about it and agreed.
"Then I'll arrange it, you prepare." Han Guihua went to notify the other two teachers.
Yike went to the small shop next to the cafeteria and bought a pound of White Rabbit milk candy. This small shop in the cafeteria was planned by Yike from the beginning. It has needles, thread, oil, salt, sugar, vinegar and everything you need in life. In the convenience store, Yike also met Haojun and Huoyun who were buying toiletries, and Zhan Tuzhan who brought them there.
"Yike, are you buying so much candy to eat by yourself?" Tu Zhan asked.
"No, it's a reward for the kids to attend classes."
"Are you going to class again?"
"Yes, the children wanted to listen to my lecture, so I agreed to teach one."
"Then I'll go and listen too. Your teaching method is very good. I want to learn from it." Tu Zhan said immediately.
"Sure, as long as you have time." Yi Ke did not refuse. She also hoped that Tu Zhan would have more teaching methods, as the children here needed him to train them.
"I have time, I have time. It's my turn to rest today. Apart from guiding the two brothers, I have nothing to do." Tu Zhan said to Haojun and Huoyun, "Brother Haojun, Brother Huoyun, I will come to see you when we have dinner."
"Go ahead, we all know the way."
Tu Zhan followed Yi Ke to the Great Hall.
In the auditorium, the children sat according to their grades. There was a blackboard on the center wall in front. This blackboard was built on the center wall for the convenience of meetings in the auditorium.
It is also convenient for her to teach here now. She can teach the children, usually teaching them some learning methods and techniques. Today, she saw more than fifty children, a dozen of them were six or seven years old, and twenty or so were around ten years old. These were all in the lower grades, and she thought it would be better to teach them some literacy methods, which the children could use to study after they had learned them.
Yike first taught the method of making up stories to recognize words. It happened that Haohaojun and Huoyun also wanted to see how Yike taught his students, so they followed after Yike left.
Yike asked Huoyun to light a few branches. When all the children were looking at the burning fire, Yike asked the children, "What is this?"
"fire!"
The children answered loudly, and one of the answers was to ask Haojun to bring in a big wooden stick from outside and put it on the fire, and the fire would be out.
"Is the fire still there?"
"there is none left."
"Yes, it's gone. It's destroyed."
Yike drew a fire on the blackboard and a wooden stick on top of the fire. She then wrote the word “extinguish” next to it and asked the students to recognize the word “extinguish” while recalling the scene. She told the children that recognizing and remembering words is very simple. She also told the teachers present that this method is called story-based literacy method.
Yike also taught the method of composing nursery rhymes and tongue twisters to help students learn to read. for example:
"Big Mouth Mommy is waiting for Little Mouth, Little Mouth wants to go home. Children should sit up straight, if their bodies are not straight, they will lean to one side..."
