on august 28, the tongxin education group of liangjiang new district launched the annual home visit for all new students. the teachers will visit the new students' families, communicate with the parents and children face to face, record the children's interests and hobbies, and pay attention to the children's growth. it is reported that this year is the 10th year that tongxin education group has carried out the home visit activity for new students.
at 10 a.m. that day, outside the gate of tongxin primary school, the school's first-grade group leader li hongjin and three colleagues were wearing the same green t-shirts and ready to set off. in three days, more than 180 teachers from the two campuses of tongxin education group will visit more than 500 new students' families in groups.
"baby, can you eat spicy food?" "xiaoyi's mother, does your child need special attention from the teacher in terms of health and life?" during the home visit, li hongjin introduced the school culture in detail to ran jiayi's mother, asked about the children's life in detail, and learned about their growth environment, physical condition, personality characteristics, interests and hobbies, etc., and guided the children to change their learning and living habits in kindergarten as soon as possible to prepare for primary school life. at the same time, she also listened to the expectations of the students' parents on school management, education and teaching.

"teacher, what should i prepare for school?" "i suggest you don't buy schoolbags with handles, as there are many stairs in our school. try not to buy glass water cups, as they are unsafe if broken..." li hongjin patiently explained the preparations for school, "psychological preparation is also important. during this period, mothers should also guide their children to relieve their anxiety and develop a good lifestyle."
"our school has a tradition. in order to practice the concept of environmental protection, there are no trash cans in public areas. every student has to make their own environmentally friendly trash bags!" li qiqi, a student volunteer who graduated from tongxin primary school this year, took out the environmentally friendly trash bags she had used for six years and shared the making skills with ran jiayi. "the materials can be old clothes and pants. try to separate the dry and wet parts inside, write your name on them, and it's best to make two to use alternately."
"i was a little confused when i received the call from the school." the nearly one-hour conversation touched ran jiayi's mother deeply. "the teachers' arrival helped me understand more about the school's situation and know what preparations i should make. i am no longer panicked."
it is understood that the teachers have done sufficient preparation before the home visit. "we will communicate with parents by phone or wechat about the home visit time; customize the home visit format according to different family situations; the names of the students on each notice sent are also written by the principal himself, striving to bring the best home visit experience to new students and parents." said deng xinghua, a teacher at tongxin education group.
"home visits before school starts are also our most important lesson," ye zhaorun and zhou yuanrong, two young teachers who just joined tongxin education group this year, told reporters. "we should go to the children's families, understand their personalities, interests and hobbies, and teach them in accordance with their aptitude in the future, so as to stimulate their potential."
qin bo, principal of chongqing liangjiang new district tongxin primary school education group, said, "home visits are a warm communication. the school started to carry out home visits for freshmen in 2014. face-to-face home visits by teachers and parents can make the communication more comprehensive, vivid and thorough. bringing students and parent volunteers to share experiences can make school life more 'three-dimensional'. freshmen home visits are one of the school's home-school co-education brands. it is not only a sense of ceremony given by the school to freshmen, allowing freshmen to more intuitively identify with their identity as first-grade students, but also can narrow the distance between them and their parents and form a home-school synergy."
