老師上禮拜三興奮的告訴媽咪說
姐姐的文章被選上 要copy給district的superintendent看
原因是幾天前有"督學"來校視察 一行7人坐在姐姐班上
老師叫姐姐唸她寫的作文 結果把那些督學們嚇了一大跳
一年級的小朋友有這樣的寫作功力 實在令人印象深刻
媽咪超好奇的 姐姐到底寫了什麼 畫了什麼 好想知道ㄡ
今天姐姐終於拿回她的作文了:
One day I woke up very early because my mommy woke me up by shaking my foot. She was having a baby !!! And so I got dressed very fast and I ate my breakfast that was still hot. When I was done I went downstairs. Then I got in the car, again, very fast, and we drove to the hospital. So I helped my mom to get to our hospital room. And while I was waiting, my dad drove me to a friends house. So I stayed here for a night while my moher has the baby and when I got back, I found out that baby boy was soooooo cute. So me and my dad buy McDonald for breakfast. And we, my family, named him Sean. The end.
媽咪覺得好驕傲
姐姐這個月還得了獎狀ㄡ "Outstanding Academic Achievement"
雖然爸爸和媽媽一直對她說 有沒有獎狀 我們並不會很在意
但當有獎狀拿回家時 媽咪還是心理暗爽了一下
不過美國的獎真的很不值錢 幾乎每個學生都會拿 只是遲早的事
一個月有3-4個獎 包括outstanding student, academic achievement, great improvement, most responsible student........
各式各樣名目的獎 重在鼓勵而不是競爭
媽咪還挺肯定這種做法的
從小用鼓勵來建立小朋友的自信心 而不是用成績來定勝負
是值得台灣學習的
