　　又到了下一個學年度申請非學校型態實驗教育填寫計畫書的時候了。這次，外子決定由孩子執筆，寫下自己對未來這一年的展望，以示負責。

    Fan Shiuan in Jin dynasty was a filial son. He believed in the idea from The Classic of Filial Piety (孝經 in Chinese). Our bodies – to every hair and bit of skin – are received from our parents, and we must not presume to injure or wound them. This is the beginning of filial piety. So, one day when he accidentally hurt himself, he almost cried his eyes out.

    Besides, free of corruption, Fan Shiuan was also a man of integrity. He was poor but still felt content to have a simple but happy life. As a result, we could expect that when Han Bo, who really admired but sympathized Fan Shiuan, planned to give silk as a gift to help poor Fan Shiuan out, but ended up being refused. Eventually, Fan Shiuan didn’t accept Han Bo’s kindness until Han Bo reduced the amount of silk and persuaded him by saying his wife and sons were eagerly in need of support.

    The story tells kids, in addition to being good to self, as a human being, not too be gentle, not too be humble, but learn to be moderate. I don’t hold too much hope that kids would learn a lot, but still expect that they could get some reflection from Fan Shiuan.

    After some discussion, to get kids who spend little time writing Chinese characters to put more efforts to write, I wrapped up the story by using the mind-map strategy and asking them to look up several words whose radical is “貝” (say “bei” in English) and make some terms, such as “貧” in “貧苦” (poverty), “贊” in “贊同” (approve).

　　今天的數學，透過安野光雄的＂進入數學世界的圖畫書＂，灌輸孩子＂合成＂的概念。如活動一將左邊直行的動物或物品，配上橫列的物品，憑藉著自由組合的方式，拼湊出看似可能卻又似是而非的有趣結果。

　　自上學期（冕三下倩二下）申請在家自學以來至今（這學年繼續申請在家自學），經過半年多來的磨合時期，孩子與我逐漸適應了彼此之間教學相長的步調。

倩

　　以安野光雄的「進入數學世界的圖畫書」為主教材，並參考張永仁的「昆蟲入門」、和安永一正的「天牛家族」「大力士獨角仙」三本書，引導孩子為第16頁的昆蟲分類。由於兩個孩子年紀不同造成認知的差異，因此分類方式與深淺程度有別。

　　教師節將近，利用網路分享的資源，更瞭解這位活在中國心中2500年的「至聖先師」孔子。

　　不可能做成的東西，我再也不做了。這是我這次學到的經驗。

冕

　　造鳥部字的句子。

倩

　　給一句話，孩子的想像在紙上奔馳。

　　乖的本意其實並不乖，還壞得很呢！

　　給一句導引，讓孩子的想像任意奔馳。

　　冕－寫給兒童的中國歷史故事2，倩－秋季派對布丁。

　　讓孩子學習記事提醒自己，為自己負責。

　　孩子分別在閱讀「露露和菈菈的天使蛋糕」和「達爾文女孩」後撰寫與繪製的心得。過程中，除了增加書寫的機會，亦加強孩子認字的能力。

　　在外子的研究室記錄前天青年盃的事。

　　於周六進行例行性的閱讀,書寫,與造詞的語文練習

冕

　　孩子們將拓印的經驗撰寫於日記本子。
