"Entering Lubao Sunshine Village" charity activity

Written by Yang Shiyun

The topic Teacher Bu gave us today is: the most creative class activity, Sansheng Sanshi, which requires telling it in a story. I think the word "三生三世" is too big. Why use "三生三世"? It probably means that the process from ideation to design to implementation and reflection is no small matter. Teachers need to put a lot of thought into designing class activities.

I have designed a lot of class activities, but the one that left the deepest impression was the charity activities that I led students to in Lubao Sunshine Village twice in 2013. Although it cannot be said to be creative, it was definitely beneficial. Righteous. I was also the only bold head teacher among the 48 teaching classes in our school at that time. I took great safety risks to complete the feat of going out of school twice to do charity. Looking back now, it seems like it happened yesterday.

Introduction: Lubao Sunshine Village is located in Xilubao Village, Fengquan District, Xinxiang City. This is a welfare home for special children managed by a caring person named Ding Qiaorong. There are more than 20 children collected here. Either their parents are in jail, or one parent is in jail and the other parent is unable to raise them, or both parents of the child are dead. Either the parents are divorced and no one wants to raise the children. This is a private organization run by caring people. From 2004 to now, with the help of caring people at home and abroad, it has been very difficult to persist until now.

When I called and learned that children there needed winter clothes, the initiative was launched in the classroom. And decided to carry out this activity in three steps.

Activity steps:

1. Build momentum for the activity. Issue an initiative to classmates and parents to donate clothes to the children in Sunshine Village. I sent a text message on the school newsletter: "Dear parents, friends and classmates: It is getting colder day by day. Let us reach out together to help the children from special families in Lubao Sunshine Village? Let us warm them with love this winter. Come on! Please take an active step to clean the clothes and shoes that you or your children do not wear and bring them to school on Tuesday afternoon. Please participate actively and voluntarily. There is no limit on the number of clothes and shoes. Please keep them clean and tidy. Friends and classmates: Class 3 needs your help and support. If you have large, unused woven bags or post office parcel bags at home, please provide 2 to 3 for Class 3. Teacher Yang, thank you for your support. The donated clothes and shoes will be packed into bags as a group and will be managed by a designated person from the Youth League branch. This event will be divided into three steps and will last for two weeks: 1. Donate clothes and 2. Interact in the Sunshine Village. Communicate. 3. Class meeting to share experiences. Parents who have good opinions or suggestions, please call me to communicate. Thank you for your cooperation. ”

2. Class meeting for donation.

1. Each child first writes a love card. On this heart-shaped card, use your best words to write what you want to say most, and put it on the clothes you donated. inside.

2. Each group brought their donated items, walked to the podium together, and said a blessing to the children of Lubao Sunshine Village.

3. The Youth League branch organizes, registers, packages and finally announces the donated items.

Reflection on the event

The students, who had never seen charity so close before, showed great excitement. Clothes in the classroom were piled on the table and they kept talking. There is no sentimentality or sympathy. When they heard the news that they could go out, they no longer cared about where they were going and were beyond excited! Quietness and sincerity were only shown when writing love cards. At first, I asked each person to speak one by one. I found that it was a waste of time, and what the people on the stage were saying was also being said by the people off the stage. Later, we changed it to a small group to talk together, and the effect was much better. Although I have been reminded many times that I am recording, please pay attention to your demeanor. However, it was still noisy. The estimated 20-minute donation lasted a full 40 minutes. I told the students that they were far from where I expected them to be. Even though they are already great! I feel that the reason why this link is unsatisfactory is that I lack emotional guidance to the students. Because I have never been there myself. I just heard about it and did it. I lack a perceptual understanding of Lubao Sunshine Village.

After consultation with the school for opinions, the first batch of 20 students were decided to participate: leaders of each group, students with birthdays in October, and all members of the outstanding group in September.

After confirming the candidates, I sent a text message to the parents on October 15th, "Hello parents, your child, as the student representative of the third class, has won the opportunity to participate in the "Entering Lubao Sunshine Village" this Saturday morning. "The qualifications for the activity, because it involves children's safety issues and vehicle arrangements, the teacher needs parents' information confirmation. Parents who agree with their children to participate in this activity should send a text message to the teacher or sign to confirm: Agree that the child ### will participate in the second grade of junior high school Class 3 went to Lubao Sunshine Village to send warm messages to orphans. ###parents, on #年#月#, 20 parents sent text messages one after another in accordance with my request. But one classmate finally gave up. Then on October 18th, I sent a separate text message again to inform the parents of the departure time and activity arrangements. "Hello parents, please inform your children to gather in class 3 at 8:30 tomorrow morning. Get on the bus at 9:00 and set off on time. In order not to increase the psychological burden on the children in the orphanage, the following points must be achieved during this activity. 1. Wear Travel in school uniforms. 2. No snacks. 4. Not allowed to play online games with children in the orphanage. 1. Donate clothes to the orphans’ dormitories, teachers, and dining rooms. Independent communication and game time. 4. Help cook and have lunch with the orphan ***, and celebrate the birthday with the orphan. 5. Dean Ding will give a lecture and introduce the situation of the orphan. Students can return by car around 6.1:00. DV. Classmate Zhai Yufeng brought an MP4 to play music. Ask the students to talk to the orphans about these questions: 1. What is your name and how old are you? 3. When were you the happiest? What is your wish? 4. What do you do in your spare time? 5. What courses do you take in class? Don’t ask what the other person’s parents do. Be careful to protect the other person’s self-esteem!

With the help of parents Cheng Yanxiang, Cui Yuhui, and Wu Yaohui, we got three cars. The big car can hold 17 people, and I am responsible for managing it. CRRC is managed by Cui Yuhui, secretary of the Youth League, and the small car is specially used to carry our donated items. On October 19, 2013, just like that, I took 20 children and my daughter and set off from school at 9:00. We crossed the Huanyu Overpass at 9:30. Because we didn’t know the way, we called Sunshine Village and waited for about 10 minutes. Later, under the leadership of the children from Sunshine Village, we quickly arrived at Sunshine Village.

As soon as we arrived there, the sensible orphans from Sunshine Village moved our things with us and even took a photo with us. But I noticed that the people who came to take pictures and play with us were all children under the age of 12, and the older children quietly walked away. Everything went according to plan. However, the children there have already played the game I preset, and the children there find it childish to throw away the handkerchief. Then I adjusted my plan and played the game of pasting sesame cakes. Everyone was very happy, and Wu Yaohui's parents also suggested that the arrested children be allowed to recite poems or sing. Let the activities have rules. A little boy in Sunshine Village sang "Friends" to express their feelings. It almost brought tears to my eyes. Our default guitarist who played "You're my sunshine" was rejected. I had to improvise the plan again to allow the children to communicate freely. Some of them played chess, some played on the swing, some threw sandbags, and some rode the seesaw. I really interacted with the children in Sunshine Village. There were three little girls who kept talking around me and asking me to guess my brain. I felt that they were actually lonely and needed someone to listen, so they never left. There was a girl whose teeth were so ugly that she couldn't even open her mouth when she smiled. I told them the story of the buck-toothed diva so she could finally smile happily. Just have a kind heart and be confident. You are the most beautiful. The teacher’s teeth don’t look good either, but I never smile with my lips pursed. Nature is the most beautiful.

I brought shredded pork, noodles, and vegetables, and asked to cook noodles in person for the classmates in our class who had birthdays and the children from Sunshine Village who also had birthdays in October, but Dean Ding refused. She said their people do.

This small traditional birthday party brought me two shocking points: 1. The parents of Cheng Yanxiang, whose birthday is in October, boiled 49 eggs and carefully wrote words and pictures on each egg, "Healthy" "Happy", "fraternity", "strong", "hardened" and so on. Let us be deeply moved. Mother's love is so delicate and great that we are all moved. When Dean Ding brought the cooked longevity noodles to our children, our children said thank you. 2. When I put the noodles and Cheng Yanxiang’s eggs in front of the children in Sunshine Village, and the “Happy Birthday Song” played, the children in Sunshine Village burst into tears. The cry made the whole scene suddenly quiet. We don't know what to say.

After lunch, Dean Ding gave us the eggs cooked by Cheng Yanxiang’s mother and “kindly treated” us and started communicating with our children. I think that child who was lying on the bed reading with a flashlight, that outstanding boy who failed to enter the children's class by 7 points and went to No. 11 Middle School, that child who finally gave up going to college due to family reasons will definitely take one of ours. The kids were a little shocked.

We return to No. 22 at 2:00 pm. I then sent a group text message to parents: The students who participated in the charity activities of Class 3 have returned to school safely at 2:00pm this afternoon. Now all the students have gone home. Parents, please remind your children to send a text message or call the teacher when they get home. Say it's safe and say I'm home safely. Thanks!

Then I received 18 replies from 20 children who participated in the activity, "Teacher Yang, ### has arrived home safely. Please rest assured." I couldn't help but feel touched. It seemed that this activity was really It made them more sensible.

Reflection on the activity

1. When determining the candidates to go, some group leaders gave up their opportunities to the group members. Just when I was about to be moved by their spirit, they But he said he wanted to go with his good friends next time. Makes me very angry. In the future, the generation of activity personnel must be within the controllable range of teachers, and the selection threshold for outbound personnel must be raised.

2. During the activity, I discovered that: at first, my students could communicate and play with the children in Sunshine Village, but playing became a group activity for them. , they also played basketball, and the basketball accidentally hit an orphan named Tingting. I don't know how to keep quiet while eating, it's very noisy. It is in sharp contrast to the children in Sunshine Village. However, overall it was quite well-behaved and did not embarrass No. 22 Middle School. In the words of Dean Ding, it was not bad. Except for the two vignettes above, the students showed very good qualities. Able to complete the activity arrangements according to the teacher's requirements and under the teacher's prompts. Wang Yuqing, Yuanye, Liu Bingxin and my daughter Ding Xingwen have shown great love and grace. They have been taking care of the little friends in Sunshine Village and playing with them. However, these small episodes still make me reflect. I must pay attention to emphasize these small details again when I go out.

Don’t neglect a good deed for a small thing

? ------Thoughts brought to me by Lubao Sunshine Village activities

In the past, I always Think: What will I do when I have money? However, today, I completely changed my mind. When I found out that I could use 100 yuan to treat 20 students to have a meal with the children there in Lubao Sunshine Village, and I could use another 100 yuan to bring three boxes of instant noodles and bought shredded pork and noodles to the children there. I discovered that doing good deeds is not as difficult as I thought. With more than 200 yuan, I can make so many children happy! The effort is worth it! As long as I open my legs, I can help more people! As long as I open my mouth, I can mobilize more people to do good deeds! What a meaningful thing this is!

I hope that my students can be a kind and caring person, not a learning machine or a slave to scores. A person who does not know how to love life and cherish life, even if he becomes the top scorer in the college entrance examination, his life will not be brilliant and wonderful. I told the students: Teacher hopes that you can be a good son or daughter, because filial piety comes first, and honoring parents is the duty of a son of man.

The teacher knows that many of you may not be able to get into famous universities or key colleges, but in the future you will all be fathers and mothers. The teacher hopes that you can be a caring and responsible father or mother at any time. Don't do anything illegal, be responsible for your family, and be responsible for your children, so that there will be one less unhappy child in the orphanage. The teacher hopes that you will be a caring citizen, be able to spread this love, and use your kindness to influence more people around you to do good deeds.

I don’t expect that I can change the world, but as long as I can influence a class, I feel that I am doing something of great merit. The mother-in-law said, your children’s clothes are still given by others, and you have to donate clothes to others. I said: It is precisely because my children’s clothes were given by others that I decided to donate them to others. Maybe, financially I am poor, but spiritually I feel that I am rich and noble! When I discovered that I, a little girl less than 1.55 meters tall, could actually do some good deeds to help others, I felt that my work was more meaningful and valuable! Master Li, who drove for us, said: I support you very much. Please call me directly next time there is such an event. I live nearby. I was very moved. I believe that my daughter and my students will have an unusual feeling in this event! Well worth the trip!
