Primary school students in Ba Xueyuan never scribble on the walls of other people's houses or on the road.Because, in school, they have already scribbled to their heart's content. The thing is like this: During the music class, the children gathered in the auditorium, and the principal gave each of them a piece of white chalk.Everyone occupies one side on the floor of the auditorium, some are lying on their stomachs, some are squatting, and some are sitting upright. In short, everyone can freely adopt various postures, and get ready with white chalk.When everyone was ready, Mr. Principal played the piano, so the children drew notes on the floor of the auditorium in the rhythm of the teacher's piano.It feels so good to paint with chalk on the smooth tan floor.In the spacious auditorium, there are only about ten Xiaodoudou and others, scattered in various places, so no matter how big the notes are drawn, there is no need to worry about bumping into others.It is said to draw musical notes, but actually there is no need to draw staves, as long as it can express the rhythm.Moreover, the name of the note was decided by the principal and everyone together, which is very Ba Xueyuan style, for example:

is "jumping" (because this beat is best for bouncing); is a "flag" (because it looks like a flag); It is the flag "Hula Hula"; It is "two flags"; is "black"; is "white"; It is "white plus black dot" (or "white dot"); is a "circle" (ie a whole note). In this way, everyone got close to the notes and found it very interesting.During the music class, it is a time of enjoyment for everyone. It was the headmaster's idea to paint and paint on the floor with chalk.If it is drawn on paper, it is impossible to draw such a large note; if it is drawn on a blackboard, there are not so many blackboards for children to use.So treat the floor of the auditorium as a big blackboard and paint on it with chalk.There are many advantages to doing this – the ability to “move your body freely”, “to paint as fast as you want no matter how fast the tempo is”, and “it doesn’t matter how big you draw”.Most importantly, children can enjoy the melody of the music with ease.If there is still extra time, the children can take the pictures on the plane, dolls and so on.Sometimes, the children will deliberately draw the painting all the way to other people's "territory". When everyone is playing this "joint" game, the whole auditorium becomes a large painting.

During the music class, Mr. Principal would step down from the stage after playing the piano for a while, look at each child's work, and comment: "very good." or: "This is not the flag 'Hula Hula', it should be 'Jump'." After everyone has finished revising, the husband will play the piece just now again, and everyone will understand what it should be like while listening to the correct rhythm.When it was time for the music class, no matter how busy the principal was, he would not ask other teachers to take the place, and the children also felt that if Mr. Kobayashi hadn't taken the class by himself, it wouldn't be so interesting.

After you've drawn notes on the floor, though, it's not easy to remove them.First use a blackboard eraser to erase the chalk marks, and then, everyone will work together to wipe the floor with a mop or rag.It is really a huge project to clean the floor of the entire auditorium. Because of this, the children in Ba Xueyuan know that "if you scribble or write some pranks, it is not easy to clean them up."So, the kids don't scribble anywhere except the auditorium floor.The most important reason is that there are music classes like this twice a week, and everyone paints and paints to their heart's content, which is enough to enjoy the fun of painting.

The primary school students in Ba Xueyuan understand the following questions very well, such as "how does it feel to hold chalk", "how to hold chalk, how to move it, so that you can write beautifully", or "is there any way to keep the chalk from breaking", etc. .In other words, every child in Ba Xueyuan can be called a "chalk expert".
