Joy Chen Tuqiao Primary School Teacher Information

—— Introduction to Chen Nan's main deeds

"If you are a drop of water, you must reflect the brightness of the sun; If you are a dust, you must pass the pulse of the earth. " This poem is used to describe Chen Nan, a teacher at Tuqiao Primary School in Jingjiang. Three years ago, Chen Nan, who just turned 30, entered the remote Tuqiao Primary School from Chengxi Primary School in the center of Jingjiang. After teaching for two years, she applied to transfer to Tuqiao Primary School and became the first teacher in Jingjiang who volunteered to take root in the countryside after teaching.

I care about the countryside and take the initiative to apply for teaching in the countryside.

Chen Nan graduated from the First Taixing Teachers' College and taught in Chengxi Primary School, a school with artistic characteristics in Jiangsu Province 1 1 year. Art teaching in Chengxi Primary School is unique in Jingjiang. As a full-time art teacher, Chen Nan has rapidly grown into a backbone teacher by virtue of her solid basic skills in art and tireless working attitude, and has frequently shown her elegant demeanour on the art teaching stage. In 2002, the "Today's Menu" she taught was included in the national standard CD for art teachers in primary schools. In 2006, he won the first prize in the evaluation of excellent courses for art teachers held by the Central Institute of Education. He has won many awards in various excellent class competitions at provincial and municipal levels. After her careful guidance, the students' works won more than 100 awards at home and abroad.

Chen Nan, surrounded by applause and praise, has no pride. 1 1 year, she often participated in the activities of going to the countryside to attend classes organized by the school. But she didn't attend an art class, which made Chen Nan feel an unspeakable regret. In 2007, when Jingjiang Education Bureau issued an initiative to teach in the countryside, she signed up at the first time. She said, "Children in rural areas also need art and need artistic edification. I want to do something for children in the countryside. "

In September of the same year, Chen Nan entered Tuqiao Primary School in Xilai Town. As soon as she entered the school gate, Chen Nan searched carefully for children's art works on the fence, in the classroom and in the corridor, but in this humble campus, she didn't find a painting. "I want to make this school colorful." Chen Nan secretly made up his mind. Just entering the countryside from the city, Chen Nan is really not used to it. There is no dormitory or canteen in the school. In the first month, Chen Nan fought guerrilla warfare in a snack bar, sometimes eating bread and instant noodles. The next month, she and other teaching teachers had a dormitory, and everyone cooked together.

Tuqiao Primary School is located in a remote place. Many children don't go home for dinner at noon, but their families send lunch boxes to school. One day at noon, Chen Nan saw Xiaojie of Class 2 (3) wiping tears in the classroom. Only when asked did I know that Xiaojie was a left-behind child, and only his grandfather took care of him at home. Grandpa didn't come to deliver the meal that day. So Chen Nan took Xiaojie into the dormitory and sat at the small table of the teaching teacher. In the evening, people in the same village brought news that Xiaojie's grandfather was ill and could not deliver meals to Xiaojie these days. Chen Nan, who loves her students dearly, will leave a place for Xiaojie every lunch in the future. Slowly, Chen Nan began to pay attention to more students who skipped lunch. At her small dining table, there are often several such children sitting together. The dormitory of teaching teachers has gradually become a small dining table for many students.

Due to the shortage of math teachers in Tuqiao Primary School, the school asked Chen Nan to teach math first. On the one hand, she accepted the arrangement of the school, on the other hand, she did not give up art teaching, and actively set up a second class to select children with artistic talent to participate. Xiaoling in the class is very artistic, and Chen Nan is going to let her learn to draw. But Xiaoling looked at Teacher Chen eagerly and said, "Teacher, I have no money to buy materials, so I can't learn to draw." It turned out that Xiaoling's parents were divorced and her mother was thin and sick. The life of mother and daughter depends on the support of relatives and friends. After learning this situation, Chen Nan asked Xiaoling to enter the second class and provide her with various painting materials for free. Looking at the brand-new brush and the amiable teacher Chen, the child's sad little face finally bloomed with a smile.

When I went to Qiu Lai in the spring, the flowers fell in bloom. In every ordinary art class, Chen Nan took the children by the hand, flew out of the school gate and devoted herself to nature. Chai Fei, a small bridge with flowing water and a wheat field, was moved to the drawing board by the students; Leaves, platycodon grandiflorum and small bottles of rags have also become good materials for children to draw. Chen Nan's dexterous hands and wisdom have woven a beautiful and magical picture for the children of Tuqiao Primary School! The artistic education characteristics of Tuqiao Primary School have taken shape under her advocacy.

Students who are hard to give up will persist in going to the countryside for another year.

Unconsciously, a year passed. In June 2008, the teaching activities ended. Chen Nan packed up and prepared to go back to the city. When packing, she suddenly felt reluctant to part with her children. What should Xiaojie do if he doesn't eat lunch in the future? Xiaoling's painting has just begun. Can you persist in the future? "I want to stay!" Chen Nan heard the real voice in his heart, so he unpacked and reopened. Chen Nan applied to Chengxi School again: Let me teach in the countryside for another year.

After the summer vacation in 2008, Chen Nan stayed in Tuqiao Primary School as she wished. This semester, art teaching in Chen Nan is like a duck to water. In order to make full use of rural natural resources, she often leads students to sketch in Xilai Town Botanical Garden on weekends according to local conditions. In order to let rural children go out, she organized students and urban children to participate in city-level live painting performances many times, and the children splashed ink at the event. In order to improve the artistic quality of rural primary school teachers, she helped young teachers prepare lessons and attend classes hand in hand. Under her leadership, other village teachers in this town soon became the backbone of art teaching in Jingjiang city.

Under the influence of Chen Nan, the lives of children in Tuqiao Primary School have become colorful. However, Chen Nan, a 4-year-old child, has no time to accompany him. She worked overtime for a month to decorate the school environment. I didn't come into the house until late at night for many days. My daughter is only 4 years old and usually likes to stick to her mother. In the past night, my mother belonged to her alone: she would hold her and tell the story of the wolf and the white rabbit, and draw rainbows and mushrooms with the simplest pencil in her hand. Mother's eyes are brighter than the stars, and her words are softer than the evening breeze. But now, my mother seems to ignore her, just saying the same thing, "Baby, go to sleep first", just drawing Snow White for herself occasionally. Last spring, hand, foot and mouth disease was prevalent, and the child suddenly had a high fever in kindergarten. After receiving the call, Chen Nan immediately rushed to the city. More than an hour later, when she rushed to the child's side, the child was already in a daze and kept shouting "Mom, Mom". At that time, Chen Nan shed tears. You know, it's only five minutes' walk from Chengxi Primary School where I used to teach to the kindergarten where my children are! She has unspeakable guilt for her children and family. After the child recovered, Chen Nan let go of her daughter's tender little hand and embarked on a journey to the countryside.

Apply for transfer and take the initiative to take root in rural education.

A year is in a hurry. In August 2009, Chen Nan's second year of teaching activities ended. Many children gathered around Chen Nan, holding her hand, and reluctantly said, "Teacher Chen, we still want you to teach us to draw next semester!" "Teacher Chen, don't go." "Miss Chen, I will miss you." Looking at the children's expectant eyes and listening to their childish words, Chen Nan's eyes were moist, and she felt that she could not live without these children.

"Take root in a small village and carry out teaching to the end." When Chen Nan told her friends what she thought, no one understood and supported her. When she explained to her family that she wanted to stay and teach in her hometown, she was strongly opposed by her family. When she applied for Chengxi Primary School, the school leaders advised her not to be too impulsive. Yes, from the city to the countryside, it takes more than 70 miles to commute every day. It's windy and rainy, cold and summer. Can you stick to it? Both parents work in the countryside. Who will take care of the children studying in the city? The difficulties in reality are far more than Chen Nan estimated. Chen Nan said, "There is only one child at home who needs me, and there are a group of children in the country who need me. They are also eager for a good art class! How can I leave? I can't go! " A friend advised her to leave a way out and go back to the city at any time if she was seconded. "No, secondment will affect the school's trust in me. I want Tuqiao Primary School to trust me to teach art. " Chen Nan has made up his mind. In the past two years, driven by Chen Nan, the artistic features of Tuqiao Primary School have improved a lot. Chen Nan thinks that if you leave by yourself at this time, it will be irresponsible to your children and school!

At Chen Nan's insistence, everyone gave in. Subsequently, Chen Nan resolutely submitted an application to the leaders of Jingjiang Education Bureau, and indicated that it was not "secondment" but "transfer"! This decision has caused quite a stir in the education system, and many people don't understand her actions.

In the autumn semester of 2009, Chen Nan, who re-entered Tuqiao Primary School, has become a veritable Tuqiao Primary School teacher. "That's the teacher who came down from the city. I don't know what I can teach! " At one time, Chen Nan often heard people say this. However, she didn't care, but worked harder towards her goal. Chen Nan said that everyone has his own interests. "What I am pursuing is to make a difference in rural schools and let more rural children accept artistic influence. I am Chen Nan, a girl in the city, but I am willing to take root in the countryside and take root in Tuqiao Primary School! " In this way, Chen Nan turns around for art class like a top every day. She is more like a lucky bird, with colorful leaves in her mouth, dressing up the world around her.

Pay will be rewarded. Now walk into the gate of Tuqiao Primary School in Xilai Town, and you will feel that it is also an art school. Look! The murals on the outer wall of the teaching building are colorful and lifelike; The decorative paintings on the aisle are full of childlike interest and distinctive personality; In the learning garden in the classroom, all kinds of art works are vivid and colorful. In just two or three years, more than 40 students in this rural primary school won the first and second prizes in the national art competition. In the education special issue of Jingjiang Daily, the students' art works she directed have mushroomed.

Faced with many achievements, Chen Nan felt that he had made the right choice. Although she abandoned the bustling life of the city, in the countryside, she has bright moon and cool breeze, green grass and blue sky; In the countryside, she has a vast and comfortable stage. Like a gorgeous butterfly, she found another sky to fly freely.
