Chapter 62: Drawing the Chessboard

"Guess, see if you can guess right?"

"Guess, don't you think it's naΓ―ve? It's like I'm idle, isn't it? ”

"Haha, you learn from me to speak. It's not fun! ”

"It's fun, on a rainy day, the only thing you can play with is water."

"Ha, I'm relieved to see you like this."

Xiao Xue looked at Xiao Yuxuan, she never seemed to understand this close tablemate.

"You two still want to go to class, one of you who went to call someone to class, can actually pretend that you don't know anything."

When the art teacher walked out of the classroom, she saw Xiaoxue and Xiao Yuxuan talking and laughing, and it seemed that she didn't pay attention to her art class at all.

"Oh, here we are."

Xiao Yuxuan enjoys being alone with Xiaoxue, after all, every time they are alone can make them understand each other better. It's just that this kind of alone time has entered the countdown with Xiaoxue's choice to transfer schools. As for how many more times they will have the opportunity to be alone, it is unknown, maybe it can only be expressed in a sentence of going with the flow!

Xiaoxue returned to the classroom, but it didn't take long for the bell to ring. The art teacher wasn't very happy, but he didn't care. Because art is an art discipline, the teaching of this kind of discipline pays more attention to talent and spirituality.

The playground, which was supposed to be lively, was deserted due to the rain. When it was supposed to be relaxing, someone was making up for it. Perhaps, this is the norm when I was a student!

Principal He always has a habit in class, and he doesn't like the so-called fixed mode very much. Although he only leads classes on a temporary basis, he feels like a dear friend to his students. In his class, his classmates are the most relaxed......

"Today we don't have classes, we make a game, the loser is punished, and the winner is free to move."

"What game?"

"The game is very simple, it's backgammon. In a team of two, whoever can successfully connect the five sons wins. ”

"We don't have a chessboard, we don't ......"

"That's the point of today's class: to create conditions if there are no conditions, and we will encounter all kinds of difficulties and setbacks in our daily study and life. When we face difficulties and setbacks, what we have to do is how to solve them and overcome them. We are going to play backgammon now, what is the biggest difficulty we have encountered, and who can take the initiative to talk about it themselves. ”

"Principal He, can I say that?"

"Anyone can say it. Remember: you don't have to raise your hand to speak in my lessons. If you have anything to say, you can just stand up and say it. If a teacher's main mission is to solve doubts, if he only focuses on etiquette, won't he waste a lot of time? ”

"Principal He, we can't play backgammon, so it should be our biggest difficulty at the moment!"

"Look, different opinions are coming out again. Okay, there are already two difficulties, are there any? ”

"If you can't get down, can you abstain?"

"Xiaopeng, you big boy, embarrassed to raise the white flag and surrender and admit defeat?"

"Principal He, I mean honestly that we won't go down, after all, we haven't gotten down, have we?"

"No, it's not scary. The scary thing is that no, I don't have to study seriously. Isn't the purpose of your coming to school to study, and if you all know, who will come to study? Our teachers often say: live to be old, learn to be old. There's some truth to that, you know? ”

"How tired we should be! Always studying, always writing? ”

Principal He smiled and watched as the students could ask such questions. Although he was puzzled, he was still very happy. If there is a question, at least it means that the students are thinking. From the side, it can also be said that the atmosphere and effect of his class are very good, there is both interaction and learning and communication. As for whether to teach according to the textbook, there may not be a standard answer. Perhaps as students they don't know that they may not be able to use one-third of what they have learned in the future. Because it is not only their studies that determine their future, but also their hobbies, backgrounds and connections.

"Alright, that's the end of our discussion. Let me teach you how to play backgammon: first we will find a piece of paper, which can be a homework book, or an exercise book, which can be English, mathematics, Chinese, etc. Next, let's draw a square and divide the square into smaller squares. As for how big this board should be, you decide for yourselves. As for why it should be divided equally? That's because it's convenient for us to make a move when we play chess, and it's also for the neatness and beauty of the chessboard. Of course, this does not affect the outcome of the chess game. The reason why I want you to draw carefully is also to let you know that it is not easy to play chess, and it is even more difficult and tiring to draw a chessboard. ”

Principal He drew as he spoke, in order to be able to draw this chessboard. Principal He was very serious and careful, and the gaps in each grid were evenly divided. Even if it's a little uneven at a time, it doesn't hurt.

The students in the audience picked up paper and pen, and they also began to draw their own chessboard. Although it was the first time for everyone to draw, they were all very cautious and careful. It's not that everyone is worried that they will be ridiculed by their peers if they are too ugly, but they feel that even the principal is so serious, how can they be perfunctory.

Principal He drew the chessboard, but when he turned around and was about to speak, he saw that the students in the audience were all serious. So I didn't bother, but walked lightly to see the students' work.

We are all familiar with chess. It's fair to say that each of us has played once or twice, but how many of us care about how the board is drawn. The culture behind each type of chess is different, and they correspond to different lives.

Principal Ho chose backgammon because it is simple and resembles Go. As an integral part of our Chinese culture, Go implies the art of war. We often say: if you want to get to know someone, play a game of chess with them. When the time comes, you will know what kind of person he is, and whether he is worthy of trust and trust.

"Yes, everyone is very serious about drawing. Only Xiao Yuxuan, why don't you paint? ”

Xiao Yuxuan scratched his head, and he said tremblingly:

"My chessboard is ready, but you haven't noticed."

Principal He took a closer look, and Xiao Yuxuan really didn't paint.

"Come, tell us about your chessboard. Also let us know how you draw, okay? ”

"Okay, I said."

Principal He made a gesture of invitation, because he really didn't see Xiao Yuxuan's chessboard. Could it be that this is the so-called chessboard in the heart is no longer shaped?

"My chessboard is very simple, easy and fast, first we take out a lesson plan and then tear it in two. Finally, the lines are placed in half at a 45-degree angle, and the chessboard can be self-contained. ”

Everyone didn't believe it, how could it be so simple. But after a few minutes, everyone believed that what seemed complicated could be so simple.
