6、,2.Is the song only about how parents should teach their children?,No.The first part of the song is about how parents can teach their children through sharing with them their dreams.And in the second part,we are told that children also have something to teach their parents-help them with your youth.

7、,3.Do you know anything about the singers?,Crosby,Stills and Nash,The musical partnership of David Crosby(b.Aug.14,1941),Stephen Stills(b.Jan.3,1945),and Graham Nash(b.Feb.2,1942),was not only one of the most successful touring and recording acts of the late 1960s,1970s,and early 1980s-with the colo

8、rful,contrasting nature of the members characters and their connection to the political and cultural upheavals(动荡，剧变)of the time-it was the only American-based band to approach the overall societal(社会的)impact of the Beatles.The resulting trio(三人组)was characterized by a unique vocal blend and a music

9、al approach that ranged from folk to pop to hard rock.CSNs(initials of Crosby,Stills and Nash)debut album(首张唱片),released in 1969,was perfectly in tune(合拍)with the times,and the group was an instant hit.,II,Song-list:,Teach Your Children,Southernman,Ohio,Woodstock,Song-list:,Teach Your Children,South

11、l programs.Children are naturally curious,inspired,motivated learners,but enjoyment of learning can get lost in the pressure to“succeed”in formal education.Parents are the most important instructors to the children,so they should give as much guidance as possible.,1.2.3.4.,Do you agree with the foll

12、owing statements?,Angela is given a hula hoop with instructions on how to use it.Jonathan is given a hula hoop but no instructions.What kind of outcomes do you expect?,A Practical Experiment,Two children are given hula hoops,a toy they are unfamiliar with.,Angela learns to keep the hula hoop in moti

14、,a toy they are unfamiliar with.,Both outcomes are good.Angela learns a useful play skill.Jonathan uses his hoop in a different,but equally playful way.Which one do you think is better in developing the childrens creativity?,A Practical Experiment,Two children are given hula hoops,a toy they are unf

15、amiliar with.,Angela,because she followed the directions given,will have a skill she can use anytime she wants to move her body in that specific way.The outcome is limited to having followed directions and mastered a particular skill.Jonathan,on the other hand,had the experience of exploring and dis

16、covering an item he was unfamiliar with.He used what he learned about this circular-shaped object to solve a problem of his own and incorporated(结合)the hula hoop as an innovative solution to help him do something that he wanted to do-kick a ball through a target.Jonathan learned he could use his own

17、 observation and exploration to learn about new objects.What conclusion can you draw from this experiment?,A Practical Experiment,Two children are given hula hoops,a toy they are unfamiliar with.,Education in the West,Much of the current debate over education surrounds the extent to which learning s

18、hould be teacher-based or student-based.Which of the two should decide what should be learned,how it should be learned,and when it should be learned?Comparing Western and Asian methods of learning it is generally true that Western methods are more student-centered,expecting students to discover thin

19、gs for themselves rather than relying on their teachers to tell them.An extreme version of the student-centered approach can be seen at Summerhill,a school in England established by the educationalist A.S.Neill.There children have complete freedom to decide what they are going to learn and which,II,

20、Education in the West,lessons they will attend.If they wish they need not attend any at all.Mainstream education in England is far more strict,demanding that children attend lessons and follow a national curriculum.This curriculum and the importance of achieving good exam results tend to reinforce a

21、 more teacher-centered approach,as both teachers and students find the pressure of time leaves less opportunity for an exploratory approach to learning.,BR3,Warm-up Questions,If you find a two-year-old boy is trying to put a keyinto a box,will you help him immediately?,Can you recall how your parent

22、s taught you in your childhood?Did they like to teach you by holding your hand?,Which way did you prefer when you were in trouble with one of your toys in your childhood,turning to your parents for help,or exploring by yourselves?,1.,2.,3.,GR-main,Global Reading,1.Scanning,2.Part Division of the Tex

39、7,my wife Ellen and I lived in the bustling eastern Chinese city of Nanjing with our 18-month-old son Benjamin while studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary,schools.But one of the most telling lessons Ellen and I got in the difference between Chinese and American ideas of edu

40、cation came not in the classroom but in the lobby of the Jinling Hotel where we stayed in Nanjing.,Article2_S,The key to our room was attached to a large plastic block with the room number on it.When leaving the hotel,a guest was encouraged to turn in the key,either by handing it to an attendant or

41、by dropping it through a slot into a box.Because the key slot was narrow,the key had to be positioned carefully to fit into it.,Benjamin loved to carry the key around,shaking it vigorously.He also liked to try to place it into the slot.Because of his tender age and incomplete understanding of the ne

42、ed to position the key just so,he would usually fail.Benjamin was not bothered,in the least.He probably got as much pleasure out of the sounds the key made as he did those few times when the key actually found its way into the slot.,Article3,Now both Ellen and I were perfectly happy to allow Benjami

43、n to bang the key near the key slot.His exploratory behavior seemed harmless enough.But I soon observed an interesting phenomenon.Any Chinese staff member nearby would come over to watch Benjamin and,noting his lack of initial success,attempt to assist.He or she would hold onto Benjamins hand and,ge

44、ntly but firmly,guide it,directly toward the slot,reposition it as necessary,and help him to insert it.The“teacher”would then smile somewhat expectantly at Ellen or me,as if awaiting a thank you-and on occasion would frown slightly,as if considering us to be neglecting our parental duties.,Article4_

45、S,I soon realized that this incident was directly relevant to our assigned tasks in China:to investigate the ways of early childhood education(especially in the arts),and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.And so before long I began to introduce the key-slot anecdote into my discu

46、ssions with Chinese educators.,TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO LEARN With a few exceptions my Chinese colleagues displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.Since adults know how to place the key in the key slot,which is the ultimate purpose of approaching the slot,and since the child is nei

47、ther old enough nor clever enough to realize the desired action on his own,what possible gain is achieved by having him struggle?,Article5_S,He may well get frustrated and angry-certainly not a desirable outcome.Why not show him what to do?He will be happy,he will learn how to accomplish the task so

48、oner,and then he can proceed to more complex activities,like opening the door or asking for the key-both of which accomplishments can(and should)in due course be modeled for him as well.,We listened to such explanations sympathetically and explained that,first of all,we did not much care whether Ben

49、jamin succeeded in inserting the key into the slot.He was having a good time and was exploring,two activities that did matter to us.But the critical point was that,in the process,we were trying to teach Benjamin that one can solve a problem effectively by oneself.,Article6_S,Such self-reliance is a

50、principal value of child rearing in middle-class America.So long as the child is shown exactly how to do something-whether it be placing a key in a key slot,drawing a hen or making up for a misdeed-he is less likely to figure out,himself how to accomplish such a task.And,more generally,he is less li
