It is said that good-looking people are all alike, interesting souls are rare, and interesting teachers are rare. Interesting teachers can make students fall in love with learning by being attuned to their interests rather than rigid teaching.
There is a mathematics teacher in New Taipei City. He is a cat lover himself. Because the middle school students in his class also like cats very much, after reaching a consensus, he brought the cats he raised at home to the podium. Holding the cat in one hand and teaching with chalk in the other, the male teacher held the cat on the stage and taught with great interest. The students in the audience were also very cooperative, and even the cat was very dedicated. From time to time, he stirred up the atmosphere and made the students laugh. However, some netizens questioned: "Such teaching assistants will only distract students' attention and will not help learning!"
The agreement between teachers and students
Nowadays, more and more families like to keep pets. The male teacher "Mr. Chen" (pseudonym) who teaches mathematics in New Taipei City is a complete cat slave. He has a total of 6 cats at home, and he can’t wait to rush home after school every day. There is a 10-year-old cat "Laifu" at home. It was a cat that was abandoned at a breeding farm. When Teacher Chen saw Laifu for the first time, he was sure that it would become his own cat. Laifu has a very gentle personality and is very coquettish, so naturally he is the most popular with Teacher Chen.
In school, Mr. Chen, as a teacher, can also get along with the students. In his spare time, he often mentioned the cats at home, especially what Laifu did today, and described their cute pictures. The students really hope to see Laifu. Teacher Chen silently kept the students' requests in mind, but he didn't want to simply agree to their requests. So he made an agreement with the students that if he could rank among the top three in the class this time, he would bring Fu to class with him.
The cat will serve as a "teaching assistant"
With this agreement, the students also hope to see this cute cat as soon as possible. The students who have goals work harder. When the results come out, it clearly meets everyone's expectations, and Teacher Chen also has to fulfill his previous promise to the students. The next day, the students welcomed Laifu with great expectations. Laifu, who had just arrived, was inevitably a little scared. He kept his head buried in Teacher Chen's arms and was unwilling to interact with the students. In the next few days, Teacher Chen brought the cute little Laifu to teach students one after another. Slowly, Laifu began to poke its little head out and became curious about its surroundings.
On this day, Teacher Chen was writing formulas on the blackboard with chalk in one hand, and holding his beloved cat Laifu in the other. Laifu, lying on his shoulder, would twist and adjust his posture in his arms from time to time, acting coquettishly, and even scratching Teacher Chen hard, causing him to scream. Come, so the students looked at her in disbelief, causing Teacher Chen to quickly explain, "That's what Laifu is like, it is acting coquettishly with me, and it likes to act like a spoiled brat." Laifu also pretended to have an innocent look on his face, and his cute look made the students below couldn't help laughing. Laifu even showed off his cuteness towards them.
Doubts from netizens
The incident of Teacher Chen bringing a cat to class quickly spread. Many netizens questioned whether this would affect students' concentration? Is it actually true? Teacher Chen said that after bringing Laifulai as a teaching assistant, the students in the class became more active in class and their condition improved a lot. After sharing the photos he took, Teacher Chen said with a smile: "I don't know if I should go to class or look at the cats. It's such a loving scene. Laifu is so cute." Netizens left messages one after another, "I don't know what the teacher is writing, I just looked at the cat."
However, some netizens questioned, "Such teaching assistants will only distract students and do not help learning!"
The process of learning knowledge is boring for most adults, let alone children. If the teacher can use some behaviors to help the children find some motivation to take the initiative to go to school, that wouldn't be a good way! Would you support Teacher Chen’s practice of bringing cats to class?
