However important we regard school life to be, there is no denying the fact that children spend more time at home than in the classroom. Therefore, the great influence of the parents cannot be ignored or discounted by the teacher. They can become strong allies of the school personnel or they can consciously or unconsciously hinder (阻碍) and thwart(阻止) curricular objectives.
Administers have been aware of the need’ to keep parents acquainted with the newer methods used in schools. Many principals have conducted workshops explaining such matters as the reading readiness program, manuscript writing and developmental mathematics.
Moreover, the classroom teacher, with the permission of the supervisors, can also play an important role in enlightening parents. The informal tea and the many interviews carried on during the year, as well as new ways of reporting pupils’ progress, can significantly aid in achieving a harmonious interplay between school and home.
To illustrate, suppose that a father has been drilling Junior in arithmetic processes night after night. In a friendly interview, the teacher can help the parent elevate his natural paternal interest into productive channels. He might be persuaded to let Junior participate in discussing the family budget, buying the food, using a yardstick or measuring up at home, setting the clock, calculating mileage on a trip and engaging in scores of other activities that have a mathematical basis.
If the father follows the advice, it is reasonable to assume that he will soon realize his son is making satisfactory progress in mathematics, and at the same time, enjoying the work.
Too often, however, teachers’ conferences with parents are devoted to petty accounts of children’s misdemeanors, complaints about laziness and poor work habits, and suggestions for penalties and rewards at home.
What is needed is a more creative approach in which the teacher, as a professional adviser, plants ideas in parents’ minds for the best utilization of the many hours that the child spends out of the classroom.
In this way, the school and the home join forces in fostering the fullest development of youngsters’ capacities. [br] As used in the text (Para. 6) the word "petty" most probably means______.
选项
A、serious
B、vivid
C、concerned
D、minor
答案
D
解析
揣测生词。该题问在第六段中petty一词是什么意思。从该词所在的上下文,我们可以看出作者对当前教师家长见面的做法颇为不满,认为他们讨论话题都是孩子日常表现的“小”、“次要的”事情。据此,我们可以确定正确答案为[D] minor(次要的)。
