In the new semester, when students wrote their expectations for classes and themselves, Xiaorui wrote the heavy and worrying word on the Post-it note: "Revenge".
After class, Ms Zhu learned about Xiaorui's past. When he was in primary school, his movements were slow and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm of his classmates. As a result, he was ridiculed and sarcastic, and no one encouraged and comforted him. Finally, Xiaorui had deep grievances in his heart and had the idea of "revenge".
"As teachers, we should encourage him more, lead the students to help him get out of the psychological shadow of" revenge ", and make his mentality positive and sunny. "Ms Zhu thought.
In class, Ms Zhu always encourages Xiaorui to speak actively. If he can't answer, Ms Zhu will give him more time and tips to think. When Xiaorui is brave enough to share his thoughts, Ms Zhu would ask his classmates to applaud him; When Xiaorui's "oversimple" question was ridiculed by his classmates, Ms Zhu immediately explained it to him with a straight face.
After a period of time, Xiaorui changed. He began to take the initiative to help his classmates. When he saw his friends walk to the door, he would take the initiative to open the door for them. In English class, he was able to stand confidently on the platform to do exercises, which was praised by Ms Zhu. In the psychology class, Xiaorui once again wrote down his expectation: "Live happily".
September, Rici Foundation approved 527 teachers' applications for autumn semester program, which is expected to support 38,681 rural students to learn social-emotional learning skills and help them grow better. In addition to distributing teaching materials and teaching aids, we also carry out relevant teacher training to help teachers make better use of teaching materials and teaching aids.
Thank you for your financial support. We can continue to expand this project, witness the growth and changes of more rural children like Xiaorui, and enable more rural children to receive better mental health education.
