In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Xu Suizhu led the team to "go on an expedition".
The provincial first high school, the provincial second high school, plus three students from Fjord Town, a total of twelve people, will go to Kyoto to attend the Chinese and foreign students' social evening party under the leadership of Xu Suizhu and two other teachers.
Considering that many of the guests present are foreigners, putting scenes from some foreign classics on the stage of an English drama may not necessarily win their approval.
Rather than catering to others and not necessarily being outstanding, it is better to show the folk charm of your country.
But it's not that easy to find a unique path and take the wrong path.
Xu Suizhu thought about it for several nights, and finally she came up with an idea. She decided to boldly try something new and write and direct a funny English drama with many elements.
It tells a series of funny stories about a group of rural students from different regions who, after being admitted to university, had different registration days due to their different regions and living habits.
The story is not difficult, but the difficulty is how to interpret and express it. Some dialects and slang can be really confusing when translated into English. Xu Suizhu almost scratched his head.
Fortunately, the students worked very hard and took the trouble to rehearse under dim lights over and over again.
Proficiency in lines is one level, body expression is another level, and the last level is how to perform with ease under the spotlight and in front of many audiences.
For this reason, Xu Suizhu discussed with Principal Chi and arranged for them to go to the stands of the playground on Monday morning to perform for the whole school teachers and students.
One time was not enough, so I did it twice. For the last rehearsal, I borrowed the town hall and performed it for the whole town residents to watch.
The students finally overcame their nervousness and no longer frequently performed with their backs to the audience. Not to mention their lines, early self-study, English corner, other students read the text and memorized words, while they memorized English dramas. Even if
It's not their lines, but they know them by heart.
"It should be no problem!" Xu Suizhu applauded after watching the last rehearsal, "We have worked hard during this period! No matter what the final result is, trying your best is the best answer."
The students, on the other hand, are very confident in this English drama.
"Teacher Xu, don't worry! I talked to our class English teacher when I got back, and she said she was sure that our show would be the climax of the entire party." A student from the Provincial No. 1 High School said with a smile.
"That's right!" The student from the Provincial Second High School nodded in agreement, "Our teacher also said, 'Teacher Xu, aside from talking about English, the creativity and ideas in her head are enough to impress everyone'."
A student in Fjord Town and Yourong Yan said: "That's right! We, Teacher Xu, go out and defeat the invincible opponents in the world!"
"Hahaha--"
A confident smile flew out of the rehearsal room.
Principal Chi stood against the wall, his happy smile never shrinking.
In fact, he knew that the students from the first and second high schools were more or less emotional when they first arrived. They were all complaining about their respective principals, right? - It was just a program, with so many first and second high schools on it.
Instead of finding an experienced English teacher, they found a teacher from a rural middle school to rehearse for them. For two months, they had to travel back and forth between the provincial capital and Yupu, rain or shine, every week for two months. So what!
But now, Principal Chi also sees it: they have integrated into the campus and admire Teacher Xu very much.
There are indeed many experienced English teachers in key middle schools in the province, but he can guarantee that none of them are as creative and flexible as Teacher Xu. It can be said that Teacher Xu’s classes can always stimulate students’ interest in learning.
Similarly, parents who were worried that their academic performance would be affected due to rehearsals in the past two months can feel at ease after the results of the latest monthly exam came out.
In the recent monthly exams, the students who participated in the rehearsals not only did not have a decrease in their total scores in several subjects, but on the contrary, they also improved in the grade level. The reason is that the two courses of English and Chemistry are higher than before.
Made great progress.
These parents were very happy. After asking around, it turned out that the English teacher and the chemistry teacher of Fjord Middle School were very funny in class. They were completely absorbed by the teacher's lectures and had no time to skip work. If you pay attention to class, can your grades not improve?
?
After hearing the news, the principal of the No. 1 Middle School in the county started to make a move again. He thought to himself: There are only a few monsters like Xu Suizhu who can't get into the oil and salt. Most teachers are easy to poach. After all, they are all mortals. Who doesn't want to make more money?
?
So, the principal of the County No. 1 Middle School came to Fjord Town again with great pride, but this time he did not enter the town, but waited at the school gate. When he saw Deng Zhijie coming out, he pulled him over and threw him out of the county No. 1 Middle School.
I hope he can be transferred to the County No. 1 Middle School to teach according to the treatment he can get from the middle school.
Unexpectedly, Deng Zhijie remained unmoved at all.
Hey! The principal of the No. 1 Middle School in the county was very happy: What benefits did this rural middle school in a poor fishing village give you? Even the principal of the No. 1 Middle School was moved by the conditions offered by the No. 1 Middle School, and even the bachelor who lived out of town looked down upon it.
?
Deng Zhijie was anxious to go to a fishing village to buy seafood with his girlfriend, but the principal of the No. 1 Middle School in the county dragged him away. He simply said bluntly: He also worked in the laboratory of the Ocean Research Institute part-time, so it was more convenient to take classes in Fjord Town Middle School.
"Well done, Teacher Deng!" A parent whose students were attending class in the town heard this while passing by, shouted and applauded Deng Zhijie.
The principal of County No. 1 Middle School was so angry that he almost had a myocardial infarction.
On the way back, I met the mayor of Fjord Town. He was angry at the mayor: "Your town is great! You can't get along with the county everywhere!"
The mayor was confused.
Fjord Town has been developing so harmoniously recently, so why can't it get along with the county? After asking around carefully, oh, it turns out it was poaching. No wonder the resentment is so high.
Principal Chi didn't know it at first, but one day when he was shopping for groceries, he met the mayor. After hearing what the red-faced mayor said, he realized that there was such a thing. He immediately scolded the principal of County No. 1 Middle School in his heart: You're so good!
Liu Fuhai! Recruiting once is not enough, and you want to do it a second time? Doesn’t No. 1 Middle School boast that there are too many teachers to apply for? Then go and recruit those teachers! Why are you poaching in a mere rural middle school?
After scolding Liu Fuhai, he continued to scold... Yes! It's Director Lu's turn.
This kid! He leads his son around the campus when he has free time. He has an agenda.
When did it happen? Under his nose, he poached Teacher Deng to do experiments in his ocean, even if he was working part-time! The third year of high school is so critical. What should I do if it affects the class?
Although it seems that the grades of the chemistry course have risen instead of falling. But there is still one semester before the college entrance examination. What if...
Then I thought about it, if Teacher Deng did not take up the task of the Institute of Oceanography, would Liu Fuhai persuade him to transfer him to the County No. 1 Middle School?
hiss--
After thinking about it like this, it seems that I should also thank the Institute of Oceanography and Director Lu for tying up Teacher Deng?
