In the classroom.
Zhang Ye put down Chenchen's workbook and patted her on the shoulder, "How long have you been standing? Sit down, I know what's going on. "
Chenchen acknowledged and sat down, then rubbed her legs vigorously.
Li Jiaxing disagreed, "Parent, this is a school and I'm a teacher. You have to listen to the teachers in school. She hasn't apologized yet, so I haven't asked her to sit down yet!"
Zhang Ye retorted, "What if I don't think she needs to apologize?"
Li Jiaxing stared, not expecting the parent to say that. This was Beijing No. 2 Experimental Primary School. For a primary school to have such a name, it was obvious what level it was. It was one of the key primary schools in the city. How many parents would fight to send their children there? Which parent would not be polite when they saw them? Not to mention here, even if it was a non-key primary school, in a normal school, the parents would not speak to the teachers in such a manner. Li Jiaxing shouted, "Then bring your child home! If you have the ability, you can go teach her yourself! She doesn't have to come to school anymore! "
Chenchen suddenly said, "My uncle teaches better than you."
"You!" Li Jiaxing was furious!
This unlucky child!
And this unlucky parent!
This was really a case of the general leading the soldiers! Like parents, like children! I was wondering why this child was so bratty! So this was how parents were!
The surrounding primary school teachers were also whispering.
"What kind of family is this?"
"They spoil the child too much."
"Yeah, all children are spoiled like this."
"Why does Chenchen's family member look a little familiar?"
"I don't know, I don't know him. I've never seen him at the parent-teacher conferences before. I've only seen a female comrade with the surname Rao. She was very pretty and always had a straight face when she spoke."
"Oh, I remember now."
"Hai, the education of parents these days is really a problem!"
"And her uncle teaches better than Teacher Li? Hur Hur, Teacher Li is the most educated mathematics teacher in our No. 2 Experimental Primary School. He used to teach in high school. If he did not offend someone, he would not have been fired and ended up teaching in a primary school. "
Many other primary school teachers also came over to watch the commotion between the parents and teacher. They were all pointing at the people in the classroom.
Perhaps only the form teacher, Zhao Mei, knew that Chenchen's last sentence was not a lie. She had also paid attention to Zhang Ye's news and knew the background of Chenchen's so-called uncle. Zhao Mei saw that the situation was getting out of hand. She was afraid that the school leaders or the media would be alarmed and cause an even bigger mess. She quickly tried to smooth things over by saying to Zhang Ye, "Teacher Zhang, this matter is actually …"
But Li Jiaxing interrupted, "Teacher Zhang? So you're a teacher too? "
Zhang Ye smiled. "You can say that I'm your teacher."
Li Jiaxing stared at him. "What do you teach?"
What did I teach? Zhang Ye said, "In the past, I also taught math."
When these words came out, many of the surrounding teachers of No. 2 Experimental Primary School were stunned. Oh my, are the two of you rushing at the temple of the Dragon King? What a coincidence! You also teach math?
When Li Jiaxing heard this, he got even angrier. "Since we're in the same profession, and since we both teach math, then as a teacher, you should be even more clear that students should unconditionally listen to and carry out the teachings of the teachers. We will not harm the students. What we do is to educate and educate people. If you are also a teacher, then you should be teaching your children how to have the correct learning attitude and not indulge them like you are doing now!" With a pause, he said, "Which school do you teach? What grade do you teach? Primary school? Middle school? "
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about which school I've taught. In what you said just now, there's a word that I don't really like. It's the word 'unconditionally'. Maybe it's because we have a different understanding. In my opinion, other than family, there's nothing in this world that is unconditionally. If my child is in the wrong, I will criticize her. For example, today, Chenchen's attitude towards her teacher is indeed very problematic. I will reprimand her when I get back, but similarly, the reason why I don't think my child should apologize is also because I think you have a problem as well. If the teacher makes a mistake, then the student should unconditionally follow and carry it out? I don't see it that way. Even teachers do not have this privilege! "
Huh?
What did he say?
Li Jiaxing said, "I made a mistake? What did I do wrong? During lunch break, I talked about yesterday's homework assignment and asked Chenchen to answer a question. After that, I explained it in detail. How could I be wrong? "
The other primary school teachers also looked at Zhang Ye speechlessly.
Zhang Ye pointed at Chenchen's workbook with his fingertips and said, "I've seen this math problem and the process of solving it. There's no mistake. The process and the answers are correct."
"Then you …" Before Li Jiaxing could finish, Zhang Ye rebutted him.
Zhang Ye said, "But what I said wasn't wrong. This is for us adults. Actually, you can ask the other children now." He turned around and faced the students of Class 1. He raised the workbook in his hand and said, "This math problem that Teacher Li explained at noon, the process of calculating and the thought process of solving it. Did you all really understand it?"
Actually, it was written on the blackboard by Li Jiaxing.
Hearing Chenchen's family say it so pretentiously, the other teachers, including Zhao Mei, also looked at the blackboard, but they did not see anything wrong.
"What's the matter?"
"Is there a problem with this question?"
"The final answer is 9. There's no mistake."
"This doesn't even need to be calculated."
"Wouldn't it be solved by disassembling it?"
All the teachers were at a loss.
At this moment, a little girl who was not on good terms with Chenchen raised her hand and said, "I understand it! Teacher Li explained it very well. I understood it all! "
Zhang Ye pointed and said, "Then how did you disassemble this step?"
The little girl choked and stared at it for a long time, not saying a word.
Then, a little boy said, "I … I don't understand it."
Following that, another student said.
"Me too."
"I don't understand it either."
"I've calculated the result, but I don't know why I had to disassemble this number."
"Yeah, me too."
Li Jiaxing said in a stunned manner, "Didn't you all explain it to me just now?! Why do you all not understand it now? Yes, this question might be a little difficult for a second grader, but I've already explained the process of solving it very clearly. What's there to not understand? "
A little boy lowered his head and explained, "Just now, when I saw the other students saying that they understood, I, I also nodded my head. Actually, I don't understand it either."
Zhang Ye said, "See, the other children did not understand it either, but it was Chenchen who spoke the truth."
Li Jiaxing said helplessly, "It's fine if you don't understand it. I can explain it to you all again. This time, I hope that everyone will be more serious and not slack off!"
Zhang Ye interrupted, "But have you thought about it, Teacher Li? Maybe it's not a problem of the children not being attentive, but the way you explained the problem?"
Li Jiaxing was so angry that he laughed. "There's a problem with what I said?"
Zhang Ye said, "Yes."
Li Jiaxing said, "Then tell me, where did I get it wrong?"
Suddenly, the commotion was brought to the attention of the school leaders. A few leaders of No. 2 Experimental Primary School had already arrived at the classroom's entrance. Together with them were two security guards.
The vice principal came in. "What's going on? Which parent is here to cause trouble? "
Zhao Mei quickly went up to them. "We're not causing trouble, it's just a misunderstanding." Then she explained to the school leaders the reason for the argument between Zhang Ye and Li Jiaxing.
When the school leaders heard this, they were speechless for quite a while. They wondered where this country bumpkin's parent had come from to argue with a math teacher about a math problem? They had also seen the question on the blackboard. It was such a simple question, what else was there to argue about? You're also a math teacher? You're also a math teacher? Then your standard is really not good enough. Even a few of the uncultured security guards looked at Chenchen's family with disdain after seeing the question.
However, Zhang Ye remained calm and composed. "Teacher Li, I'm not doubting your math standard. I'm just saying that there might be a problem with your way of teaching. Were you a high school teacher in the past?"
Li Jiaxing said, "Yes."
The vice principal frowned and added, "Teacher Li is also a master's student and a top student at Jinshi Normal University. You're saying that Teacher Li's teaching standard is not good enough?"
"Master's? She studied advanced math? She's indeed very good. " Zhang Ye smiled and said, "How about this? If I just talk about it, everyone might not be able to understand. I'm also a math teacher, so I'll come up with a question on the spot. Everyone can try to solve it. Some of the questions might then be answered, is that alright?"
Zhao Mei said, "This …"
A school leader spoke first. You, a student's parent, are challenging the authority of our school's teachers? Then this matter must be cleared up today. "Sure, since this lesson for 2nd year Class 1 is also an arithmetic class, right?"
Li Jiaxing thought to himself, I'm a master's student, yet you're giving me a question? He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Alright, then you can come up with the question. Calculus? Function? Or equation? "
Zhang Ye threw up his hands and laughed. "It's nothing. It's just a normal elementary math question."
The teachers were in an uproar when they heard this.
"What?"
"Elementary math question?"
"Are you kidding Teacher Li?"
"Is there a need to come up with elementary math questions? Even a fool can do it! "
"Teacher Li is a master's student from a famous school!"
Zhang Ye walked towards the blackboard. "I heard some of the teachers' discussions. Even a fool can do it? Hur hur, that's not necessarily true. I'm going to come up with the question. "
Zhang Ye found a black marker and started writing the question on the blackboard.
This question, of course, did not exist in this world. This was because this world's current educational understanding and education model was slightly different from Zhang Ye's previous world. In Zhang Ye's previous world, this question was rather famous. It had caused quite a lot of discussion and controversy on the internet for a period of time. In essence, it was indeed an elementary math question, and it had really appeared in elementary school textbooks before. However, the adults who had seen it would affectionately give this math question or a similar type of math question a name:
— Math God's Problem!
Today, Zhang Ye brought it up so that the people of this world could broaden their horizons!
