: The purpose of weekly reflection on teaching is to better learn and improve your own education methods and find the teaching methods that best suit you. Let's read the weekly teaching reflection diary "Ukulele and the "Little Devils"" together!

Since the last time I was made angry by the angel class and cried, the students have been calm for two consecutive weeks. many. Although there are still occasional noises, the noisiest group of people no longer move around and talk together as they did before, but they all consciously sit back in their original seats. Although I would still steal the maracas and ukulele from the podium when I wasn't paying attention, and hit the two naughtiest students sitting closest to the podium, but as long as they didn't make too much noise, I They basically turn a blind eye to this.

During class this week, Xiao Zhan was playing by himself again with his ukulele, and the sound was getting louder and louder. I had no choice but to glare at him, and he also stared at it with big eyes. I don't seem to feel that I have done anything wrong.

I said to him: "Can you put the piano back?"

He put the piano back on the podium reluctantly. But not long after he put it back, when I wasn't paying attention, he took it off again and fiddled with it randomly.

Forget it, as long as he doesn't speak and doesn't affect other people, do whatever you like. I thought to myself and sighed.

When get out of class was over, he did not leave. He was still playing the piano alone. Several students stayed behind, talking and playing other instruments. I was busy dealing with other students and didn’t care. he.

"Teacher, please teach me how to play." He suddenly said.

This sentence, which was not loud, was particularly clear in the noisy environment at that time. It was like a clear bell, and the lingering sound lingered in my ears. Even today, when I think about it, it is still clear.

However, I was a little confused at the time. First of all, he basically never takes the initiative to talk to me, and every time I talk to him, he always looks indifferent. Even when the head teacher and prefect visited home, he had an impatient attitude. So when he took the initiative to talk to me, I was so surprised that I didn't know how to respond to him. However, he didn't seem to expect a response from me. When I was confused for a moment, he started laughing and playing with other classmates again.

After returning to the office, his words kept echoing in my mind. I always feel that I should seize this opportunity to do something, but what should I do? This child has always been an invulnerable child in the eyes of the teacher. Neither soft nor hard words are of use to him. He never listens to the class and refuses to pay attention. Homework, but now he says he wants to learn piano? Is it really just talk? Suddenly, an idea flashed - since he wants to learn, why not spend some time after school to teach him? Moreover, ukulele is easy to learn and very easy to learn. It is easy to build students' self-confidence and let them know that they are not unable to learn everything. Of course, my selfish intention is to catch the "troublemaker" in this class and make it easier for other students.

So, I kept him after class the next week:

"Do you want to learn ukulele?" I asked.

"Yes." He shook his body and answered in an uneasy tone.

"I can teach you, but there is one requirement, that is, you have to come every day after school and cannot miss a day. Can you do it?" This requirement is set to maximize the teaching effect. Because considering that a musical instrument is a skill that requires long-term practice, you will definitely not be able to learn it well if you fish for three days and dry the net for two days.

"Okay." He agreed without any hesitation, so fast that I doubted whether he heard me clearly.

"Every day, starting from today!" I confirmed with him again.

"Okay." He still had that ruffian tone.

It turns out that he was not joking. After school that afternoon, he came to the music classroom. But he didn't come alone, the entire angel class came together. So our entire teaching process was conducted amidst all kinds of noise.

Students kept coming over to scratch him from time to time, and there were students over there who rummaged through the cabinets in the music classroom, taking out the instruments in the display cabinets and playing with them, making it look like a ghost had entered the village. Fortunately, Xiao Zhan has been concentrating on learning the piano and has basically not been affected by other students. Different from his usual arrogant appearance, at this moment, he is just an ordinary little boy who is dedicated and positive.

He learned so quickly that he finished all the content I prepared in ten minutes. After I told him to practice on his own, I went to teach another little devil in the angel class who wanted to learn piano. Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, Xiao Zhan immediately put down his ukulele, put on his naughty smile, and joined the group of people playing. I resisted the urge to ask him to practice, fearing that it would trigger his rebellion. Unexpectedly, after a while, without waiting for me to say anything, he took the initiative to pick up the ukulele again and started practicing. I pretended not to see it, even though I was already overjoyed inside.

"Let's stop here today and continue tomorrow..." Before I could finish my words, these students began to run out.

"Wait a minute! If you moved something, please put it back to its original place. And put the stools also." He wanted to leave after making the classroom so messy. It turned out to be a child from the angel class. There are no rules. I thought angrily.

They did not show their usual unwillingness, and readily set up the stools. He just told me that it was done after a few tinkerings. When I saw it, there was no difference at all from it not being done. Still crooked.

"Looking sideways, the stools are not aligned." I said to them.

So they fiddled with it again, and within a minute they said it was ready. When I saw it, although it was still crooked, it was at least better than the first time.

Take your time. I thought to myself and let them go.

The next day, they came over at nearly 5:40. Normally, school ends at 4:45, but what makes me happy is that unlike yesterday when a whole team of little devils came over in great force, only two people came today.

"I thought you wouldn't come today." I joked.

"Old man Li stayed with us." He said with a smile. Old Man Li is their nickname for the class teacher.

"Who are you talking about?!" Although I knew that the students in Angel Class had always spoken ill of their class teacher behind their backs, it was still a bit too much to say that to my class teacher in front of other teachers.

"Oh, it's Teacher Li." He corrected.

Today’s class is still going smoothly. It felt like as soon as he picked up the instrument, he immediately changed into a different person, from a monster in the world to a well-behaved little sheep. He concentrated throughout the whole process, listened carefully to the instructions, and basically obeyed absolutely without raising any questions or objections. When we were in class, another little devil started to move around like yesterday, but the difference from yesterday was that his movements today were obviously much more restrained than yesterday, and he took things lightly. Handle with care. Soon he even picked up the broom I put in the classroom and started sweeping the floor for me. It would be no exaggeration to describe my heart as ecstatic at that time. My request to them has always been to not go too far in causing damage. Unexpectedly, today they not only did not cause damage, but also took the initiative to help me clean up the classroom. At that moment, I felt that it was worth sacrificing some of my rest time to give voluntary teaching to these so-called demon kings. It turns out that they are not just cynical, these children in the angel class really have an angelic side.

Later that day, I shared this incident with another colleague:

"The students in the angel class seem to be much better recently!" I said happily.

"Why don't you be good? They were fighting in the classroom today and broke the seats of the stools. In the afternoon, Teacher Li even lectured them and asked them to compensate."

It turns out that this is the reason why they were detained in court today, and I suddenly felt mixed emotions in my heart. I'm disappointed that they still get into trouble every day, and I'm lucky that they don't show their negative side in front of me. At this time, I remembered a sentence that impressed me deeply when I listened to the lecture last time: Education is a slow process.

Maybe my voluntary teaching will not have any obvious results in the short term, but I hope that when they grow up and leave school, they can remember that the music classroom after school every day once made them feel the beauty in music, and have Then there is a little bit of possibility, knowing that you can still become, and try to become a better version of yourself. If that day really comes, then the time-consuming and thankless things I do now will make sense.

Well, I know there will be that day.
