The Frog in the Shallow Well
Have you not heard of the frog that lived in a shallow well? It said to a turtle that lived in the East Sea, "I am so happy! When I go out, I jump about on the railing beside the mouth of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the broken wall of the well. If I jump into the water, it comes up to my armpits and holds up my cheeks. If I walk in the mud, it covers up my feet. I look around at the wriggly worms, crabs and tadpoles, and none of them can compare with me. Moreover, I am lord of this trough of water and I stand up tall in this shallow well. My happiness is full. My dear sir, why don't you come often and look around my place?"
Before the turtle from the East Sea could get its left foot in the well, its right knee got stuck. It hesitated and retreated. The turtle told the frog about the East Sea.
"Even a distance of a thousand li cannot give you an idea of the sea's width; even a height of a thousand ren cannot give you an idea of its depth. In the time of King Yu of the Xia dynasty, there were floods nine years out of ten, but the waters in the sea did not increase. ln the time of King Tang of the Shang dynasty there were droughts seven years out of eight, but the waters in the sea did not decrease. The sea does not change along with the passage of time and its level does not rise or fall according to the amount of rain that falls. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea."
After listening to these words, the frog of the shallow well was shocked into realization of his own insignificance and became very ill at ease.
一口废井里住着一只青蛙。有一天,青蛙在井边碰上了一只从海里来的大龟。 青蛙就对海龟夸口说:“你看,我住在这里多快乐!有时高兴了,就在井栏边跳跃一阵;疲倦了,就回到井里,睡在砖洞边一回。或者只留出头和嘴巴,安安静静地把全身泡在水里:或者在软绵绵的泥浆里散一回步,也很舒适。看看那些虾和蝌虾,谁也此不上我。而且,我是这个井里的主人,在这井里极自由自在,你为什么不常到井里来游赏呢!” 那海龟听了青蛙的话,倒真想进去看看。但它的左脚还没有整个伸进去,右脚就已经绊住了。它连忙后退了两步,把大海的情形告诉青蛙说:“你看过海吗?海的广大,哪止千里;海的深度,哪只千来丈。古时候,十年有九年大水,海里的水,并不涨了多少;后来,八年里有七年大早,海里的水,也不见得浅了多少。可见大海是不受旱涝影响的。住在那样的大海里,才是真的快乐呢!” 井蛙听了海龟的一番话,吃惊地呆在那里,再没有话可说了。
寓意:宇宙无终极,学识无穷尽。这则寓言告诫人们,千万不要因一孔之见,便洋洋自得,不要因一得之功,便沾沾自喜。
一群可爱的小蝌蚪出世了,青蛙妈妈却出了远门。小蝌蚪们长得很可爱:大脑袋、黑身子、长尾巴。一天,它们看到鸭妈妈和小鸭们快乐地游玩,非常羡慕。它们说:“鸭妈妈,您知道我们的'妈妈在哪吗?”鸭妈妈说:“你们的妈妈长着大眼镜、宽嘴巴,你们去找找看吧!”小蝌蚪们游啊游啊,看见了一只鱼,它有大大的眼睛。“妈妈,妈妈!”小蝌蚪们开心地叫起来。鱼连连摆头,说:“我不是你们的妈妈,你们的妈妈有四条腿!”小蝌蚪们继续游,看见乌龟有四条腿,又大叫“妈妈!”乌龟连连摆头,说:“我不是你们的妈妈,你们的妈妈是白肚皮!”小蝌蚪找妈妈的故事:小蝌蚪们继续游,看见了一只白鹅,它有白白的肚皮。“妈妈,妈妈!”小蝌蚪们开心地叫起来。白鹅连连摆头,说:“我不是你们的妈妈,你们的妈妈穿着绿衣服。”“它走起路来一蹦一跳,唱起歌来呱呱叫呢!”白鹅接着说。小蝌蚪们继续游,看到了一只青蛙,坐在荷叶上“呱呱”唱歌。小蝌蚪们游过去小声说:“请问,您看见我们的妈妈了吗?”“她有大大的眼镜,宽宽的嘴巴,四条腿走路蹦蹦跳跳,白白肚皮绿衣裳…….” 青蛙没等小蝌蚪说完,就“呱呱”叫起来:“我就是你们的妈妈呀!”小蝌蚪们开心地扑进妈妈的怀里,笑了。
小蝌蚪找妈妈的故事启示:这个故事告诉我们,每个动物都有自己的不同特征。
他特别讲了《老虎当校长》的寓言故事讽刺了应试教育背景下的教育现状,那就是用统一的标准来评估学生,严重扼***了学生自我和个性的成长。怎样改变这一现状?教育怎样由课本知识中心向以儿童发展为中心转变呢?冯恩洪结合建平经验,最后引出结论:应该让鸭子练游泳,兔子练长跑,老鹰学高飞,把个性发挥到极致。其实这些想法和说法,在几千年前,中国古代教育家孔子就说过因材施教,今天是什么让我们只能去想,不能去做呢?我想只有解决根本性的问题以后,因材施教才会被赋予真正意义。
在阅读中,在体会故事的幽默时,我想到我们班的.那些所谓的后进生,他们身上难道没有优点?难道没有适合他们发展的路?答案毫无疑问是否定的。作为老师,有义务去发现每一位孩子的优点,让他们在最适合的发展区域中发展。我们面对的是许多个有差异的学生,为什么还要用无差异的教学方法去教育他们呢?冯校长的一句话说得特别好,当我们站上讲台的那一刻,我们终生都在面对差异。
教育的最高境界不是把学生们管住,教育的最高境界是让学生感动,让学生从自身起见,不好意思不这么做。所以,让每个学生感动的教育就是让学生享受的教育,教育的最高境界是让学生享受适合自己的教育。而适合学生的教育应该是一种和谐发展的教育。
