Imagine a school that expected its students to become literate without any formal instruction. Most parents would be alarmed by such an approach, which would leave their children confused and with gaps in their understanding. This however has been the philosophy on character development in many of our schools. Why is the development of character seen as somehow different from the other skills that we teach?
Of course there will always be learning by osmosis (耳濡目染) in any school, but as a teacher and primary school head I have found that a child’ s moral literacy is strengthened when they acquire the building blocks of good character such as consideration, courage and honor: qualities which are commonly known as virtue.
I personally find that exploring a virtue over a two-week period provides a simple and effective program that allows for the creative input of both teacher and student and a chance for the virtue to embed itself. Once a lesson on a virtue such as honesty has been completed, we need to allow time for children to practice this concept just as would be the case with fractions or verbs. Allowing children to role play a situation such as making up excuses to cover a mistake can be enormously interesting, and the drama can be frozen allowing the characters to be questioned about their feelings and motives. It’s also a safe way for children to experience for themselves how a lie usually goes out of control.
Our role as educators is also to look for opportunities to help our students as they attempt to strengthen their characters. When something goes wrong we guide the young person to the virtue that will prevent it from happening again. For instance, when a student thoughtlessly disturbs the calm atmosphere of the library, instead of a response such as, "that was really disrespectful and selfish of you!" we draw out from them the required virtue: "When you’ re walking through the library, what virtues do you need to use?"
Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?
选项
A、Teaching morals and values has been a frequently discussed topic in the past few years.
B、The author and his staff embed virtues into lessons and school life to encourage character development in children.
C、Kids throughout the population face the same needs, the same challenges, and the same realities in their lives.
D、Role plays are an excellent way of getting students to practice their English.
答案
B
解析
文章第二段中提到,美德可以帮助孩子们的性格发展,接下来第二段又提到把美德嵌入课堂教学和学校生活中,帮助性格发展。故选B。
