As the weather gets warmer, the outdoor activities at Ju An's house gradually become more and more popular, and the lawn at the door becomes more and more lively. Lying on the lounge chair under the porch, Ju An got a glass of water and was getting comfortable.
While they were basking in the sun, Dinah and Cora took Xiao Zheng and Xiao Chi and Xiao Hu to swim in the indoor swimming pool after school. Wang Fan became busy again during this period, traveling around the United States.
Swinging his crossed legs, he took down the water glass hanging from the big shameless antlers lying next to him, took a sip and hung it up again. How come he hadn't discovered the advantage of being shameless before?
An looked at Shameless lying on the ground next to him and thought to himself. Shameless was very honest and didn't mind that Ju An hung the water cup on his antlers. He was fanning his big ears and watching Zhou Qi and Qi playing on the lawn last week.
As soon as he hung the water glass on the shameless corner, Teddy's chubby figure emerged from the side of the woods not far away, followed by Nini, who was jumping up and down, and three little girls, Emily and Angel.
There are three beautiful little bags hanging on the spring's neck. Don't think there is anything in the bag.
There are books, there are books, but there are only one or two. If you expect three little girls to go home and read books or something, that's really a luxury. Why not hang them around the necks of Teddy and Clockwork? Teddy's head is too big and Clockwork's mane is too big.
The hair is too long, and only Spring, the unlucky guy, has a small head and no hair on his neck.
Seeing the three little girls running over, Ju An said loudly: "Whatever you are running for, you are already at home. Is there anyone chasing you?"
"Dad! Emily and Angel, I, and I have entered the top class. From now on, you or mom will have to pick me up two nights a week. I will be back forty minutes late!" Nini said to Ju An,
I took the two girls and ran into the house, and then I heard Nini in the living room and continued to say what I just said to grandma, which of course attracted a burst of praise from grandma.
Before Ju An could put his head on the recliner, three little girls ran out like a gust of wind and climbed onto the trampoline together, shouting happily, and then the three of them held hands and jumped on it very happily.
.
"Has it reached the point where no one can get into the top class in the United States?" This thought suddenly popped up in Ju An's head. How could these three little girls get into the top class? Angel is not as quiet as before now. No wonder
People say that it is not easy to learn well, but it only takes three minutes to learn bad. Ever since the Hunter family moved here, they have been hanging out with two little girls Nini and Emily. Now they are climbing up trees to catch birds and going down to the river to catch fish.
Could it be that there were funds allocated and no one could be found to bring these three girls in to make up the numbers? Look at the real joy of dancing. They are not as calm as the so-called top students when Ju An was a child. I couldn't help scratching my head.
.Did you consider your friend’s donation again? After thinking about it for a while, he put this matter behind him.
Comfortably amidst the laughter of the children and the play of the little lions, Ju An squinted his eyes for a while and felt someone twisting his ears. When he opened his eyes and saw his
Mom is looking at herself.
Seeing Ju An wake up, he immediately said: "Get up! Help me chop off the big bones, and make some pork rib soup tonight to supplement calcium for the children."
Upon hearing this, Ju An immediately stood up from the sofa, looked back at the happy Nini, and muttered after his mother: "That child at home seems to be lacking calcium!".
Entering the kitchen, I directly put the big tube of bones on the countertop. I picked up the bone-chopping knife and started chopping it. I finished the work within five minutes of raising the knife and putting it down. I washed my hands and cleaned them from my mother.
I broke off half a cucumber from the basket and stuffed it into my mouth, chewing on it while walking towards the living room.
When I arrived in the living room, I saw Dinah holding a list in her hand, and Cora was helping Xiaochi and Xiaohu wipe the water droplets from their heads. The two little guys were not honest and kept trying to get out.
Walking next to Dinah, Ju An stretched his head and looked at the list in Dinah's hand, only to see that it said on it that Nini was going to be admitted to the top class.
"Nini will be late for the next two days and won't be able to take the school bus. Let's take turns picking her up in the next two nights." Dinah put the order in Ju An's hand, then turned around to deal with Xiao Chi.
Ju An looked at the list in his hand and chewed cucumber: "You are such a person, you are not happy if your daughter enters the top class~! I will pick up Nini on the first day tomorrow." Ju An said while looking at the list, thinking
I'm going to see the top classes in the United States tomorrow afternoon.
Dinah smiled and said: "What's so exciting about this? Now Nini still wants it, so don't put so much pressure on your children! The school won't publicize this thing too much. In short, we just try to keep a low profile."
"Yeah! Yeah!" Ju An nodded and said casually, isn't it just a low-key thing? I like to keep a low profile the most.
In the afternoon of the next day, Ju An happily drove his GMC to pick up his children. Of course, he picked up his children along with Emily and Angel. As for why he didn’t drive the F650, Dinah said he should be low-key. Do you understand that he should be low-key?
Ah, driving the f650 would not be low-key, but high-profile.
He parked the car in the parking lot of Nini Elementary School, stood at the entrance of the school and nodded to several parents, then walked towards the principal's office. Most parents would wait at the door. Ju An made an appointment with the principal.
, I want to come and see the top class, and since Ju An and his wife are sponsors of the school, there is no problem in visiting the school.
Under the leadership of the principal, Ju An went to see the so-called top class with great hope. When he arrived at the door, Ju An stretched his head and looked inside. He didn't see the teacher giving a lecture on the podium, but there were a bunch of children.
They were divided into three or four groups, large and small, and they were looking at the two potted plants in the middle around the small table. There were also little children singing to the plants, which made Ju An look dumbfounded. These things can be considered top-notch.
Class. Don’t teach your children to be stupid.
"This is to cultivate children's observation skills. From now on, the children will record the growth of these plants every day, and then test the impact of the external environment on the growth of the plants." The principal stood next to Ju An and explained in a low voice to Ju An.
Ju An nodded: "I know this." My buddy, I saw this thing from TV. It was shown in The Big Bang Theory. Leonard, the pig's foot, did the same thing when he was a child.
After stretching his head and looking at it for a while, the principal next to him said to Ju An: "I would like to thank you sponsors so that the school's top class can be maintained!" Easton Liu is a small town, but it has millions of people.
There are no shortage of millionaires. Relying on the sponsorship of these people, the school has the funds for top classes.
Seeing a bunch of silly boys and silly girls looking at the plants with great interest, Ju An became a little interested. But that's it. There is no teacher to give lectures or provide tutoring. Can this be considered a top class? Anyway, you
Let’s play with a Mathematical Olympiad question.
After chatting with the principal for a while, Ju An went back outside and waited for Nini to finish class.
After picking up the three children in the car, Ju An asked Nini and Nini while driving the car: "How was the top class on the first day?".
"It's very interesting. We measured the height of the three pea seedlings and the size of the leaves," Nini said to Ju An while sitting in the back seat.
Ju An nodded after hearing this: "As long as it's interesting." After saying that, he looked at the car intently. The three little girls behind him were happily chatting about things in class.
After returning home, Ju An went straight into the study, turned on the computer and began to search for top classes in the United States. Don't think that the United States is full of such silly top classes.
After Ju An read a few paragraphs, he realized how powerful the top classes in the United States are. For example, the students in the top classes will build a building with wooden sticks and other things. At the same time, they also need to take cost control. The built buildings will be based on the current houses.
The price depends on which group makes the most profit. This is awesome. The teacher is responsible for 'selling' a fixed piece of land to each group, which is a hard board. The same rules apply.
The height and greening area are also required. Sticks are wood. Glue and other things are cement. Each one has a price. Each member of the team has a different division of labor. Some are responsible for the design of the building, and some are responsible for the design of the building.
Some are responsible for the purchase of materials, and others are responsible for the construction budget. Members of each group can participate to the maximum extent and contribute their talents and strength to the group.
There are also top classes that are responsible for writing the history of a town or community. Then the students in these groups will go to the library to look up information or interview people such as the town mayor and police chief, and then sort out the history of the town or community.
history.
Ju An even read an article that students from the top class were invited by the town to participate in a discussion meeting on real-life land development in the town.
After reading this, Ju An felt amazing. The top classes in the United States are not about knowledge, but how to acquire knowledge. In our domestic terms, it is teaching children how to fish, which can benefit children throughout their lives.
Skill.
But then reading the news, Ju An felt that the US government had made a mistake. When Mr. Bush was on stage, he implemented a policy of leaving no one behind, and vigorously cut the budget of the top students in the United States.
It advocates an education plan in which every student is a genius, and then invests the money saved in the education of mentally retarded students. This has greatly reduced the budget for top classes in the United States, and only several similar schools in many states can pool enough funds to build a gifted class.
Bush's plan was an eye-opener for Ju An. I'm afraid all idiots know that the return on investment in education for top students is much higher than the return on investment for low-intelligence students. American educators all admit this, high IQ
The students who have made greater contributions to society have made greater contributions to society. More than half of the students in the Ivy League schools in the United States are from top classes, which shows the effectiveness of this top class system.
Nowadays, the top classes in the United States are like Dinah said, keeping a low profile. Some parents even don't know that their children's schools have top classes. They say it is to avoid unnecessary infliction to other children with average intelligence in the school.
The pressure, this explanation made Ju An extremely painful. There is pressure in life, but now the unemployment rate in the United States has no pressure, so it is a ghost.
Every student is a genius. This slogan can not only please most students’ parents, but anyone with a little sense knows how ridiculous it is. But for President Bush, it is enough to please the students’ parents, because
The parents of these children have votes. The few percent of parents of students with high IQs definitely do not have as many votes as the parents of ordinary students and mentally retarded students combined, so they can comfortably stay in the White House for another four years.
