turn the original abstract mathematics into a lattice game; when learning the content of number pairs, let students find small animals in the maze; with the help of the idiom "cut in two", it is simple and interesting for students to remember the number of sections and times of sawing wood...
this is the mathematics class taught by hou dianxiang, a first-grade primary school teacher in litai town, yanggu county, shandong province. this year is his 24th year of teaching at the grassroots level as a rural teacher. hou dianxiang, who was born in 1978, has been teaching mathematics since graduating from university.
"xiaoxia" and "xiaoming" both need to rush forward
from conventional blackboard writing to multimedia teaching, from black hair to white hair, what has changed is the teaching method, but what remains unchanged is teacher hou's "teaching experience".
since 2007, hou dianxiang has taken root in litai town primary school. from that moment on, he thought about teaching and educating people, "to be a college student in the new era."
there is a student, xiaoxia, whose family conditions are average but very diligent. she is learning a new lesson today and she previewed it in advance last night. for such children, teacher hou encouraged them to think deeply. finally, xiaoxia was admitted to shandong university.
there was a student, xiao ming, who was a bit shy and average in talent. teacher hou started with simple questions, set up "small steps", asked the students to "slowly raise their legs", and encouraged xiao ming to answer actively and work hard to think and express; in the end, xiao ming became mathematics "top student".
during hou dianxiang’s teaching career, countless xiaoxia and xiaoming, through his guidance, stepped from the initial basic knowledge and finally entered the palace of mathematics. "only when students find it interesting will students fall in love with mathematics," hou dianxiang said.
a "mathematics class" taught for 8 years
“which type contains more plastics and vegetable leaf peels in domestic waste?”
"common denominator, common denominator, unified denominator, denominator judgment"...
with bursts of childish laughter, the students’ interest in learning mathematics blossomed while having fun. in the "sending classes to the countryside" activity on april 18 this year, hou dian wanted to teach "tongfen" to the children, and he won "a lot of praise". "teacher hou uses creative teaching design to guide students to explore the characteristics of 'general division'. his humorous teaching style and flexible teaching art allow every student to truly feel that 'mathematics is fun'." those who came to listen to the class teacher chen, a teacher at mingde primary school in yanggu county, said this.
"i've been teaching this class for eight years." hou dian wanted to say. take the course "general score" as an example. he has been preparing for it since 2017. from the beginning of teaching knowledge and methods, to now he is talking about strategies, thinking, and how to improve students' core competencies. "the lessons become more interesting and clearer as time goes by. what gives me the most sense of accomplishment is that every child can develop differently in mathematics." hou dian wanted to say.
treat mathematics as the end of your pursuit
walking into hou dianxiang's family library, the reporter felt surrounded by a mountain of books. "there are nearly 1,000 volumes in the series of primary school mathematics professional development alone." hou dianxiang introduced that he keeps good books as a companion, reading wu zhengxian's classic lesson examples, yu zhengqiang's "seed lesson", chen lihua's "58 key lessons"... "only reading can open our horizons. only with higher goals, more advanced concepts, and a deeper understanding of teaching can i go further."
over the years, hou dianxiang has always helped young teachers grow. he created the teaching concept of integrating action and thinking and implemented it in classroom teaching. in recent years, he has served as the host of the primary school mathematics pilot studio. the 15 teachers in the team have accumulated a lot of teaching experience in education and teaching. team members have won many awards in competitions.
in the past five years, hou dianxiang has been awarded yanggu county famous teacher, yanggu county teaching and education model, liaocheng city teaching expert, taught several county-level and municipal open classes, won the third prize of shandong province education informatization primary school integration innovation case, and was he was hired as a member of yanggu county primary school mathematics research team and the host of yanggu county’s “famous teacher pilot studio”.
