It was the first time that Ang Lee had seen these teachers so happy that they forgot themselves. In particular, a few of the older teachers were so happy that they even raised their hands, which looked particularly funny.
This was enough to show how much they liked the iced red tea, and that the reward that Ang Lee gave them was exactly what they needed.
"Assistant Minister Li, why are the heights of these iron hoops different? Some are very tall, and some are very short. "
A teacher asked as he looked at the other shooting frames that had been set up.
Ang Lee explained, "This is because the children in the school are of different heights! Some children are tall, and some are very short. Therefore, the height of the shooting racks naturally has to be adjusted. If they are too short, there will be no challenge. If they are too tall, they will not be able to shoot, and the children will not play. "
It was the same as playing a game. If it was easy to win at the beginning, then there was no need to continue playing. If you kept losing, then it would not be fun. Only when you put in a lot of effort and won, then it would give you a sense of accomplishment and make you very happy.
There were six classes in Tanar School, which were divided completely according to age. The height difference of the children in these six classes was still very obvious. Therefore, the six shooting racks were built with six different heights. They were arranged in order from the lowest to the highest. Standing from a distance, they looked like a line.
Because the academic pressure was not very great, the break time in Tanar School was much longer than in the schools of later generations. It was at least two or three times longer. This ample time was enough for the children to deal with some things that needed to be dealt with.
Ang Lee intended to use this break time to organize a competition. The prizes were also very rich. Every child who won the competition would get something they liked.
"The children will be divided into classes. Each person will shoot ten times. The one who shoots the most times will win. The final winner of each class will be rewarded with two cups of iced red tea. Those who are confident in themselves can sign up immediately."
Ang Lee ordered the teachers.
"Yes, Assistant Minister Li. I'll arrange it right away."
The teacher was very smart. From the height of the shooting racks, they knew that there were six shooting racks for each class. However, there were fifty students in each class. If each student could shoot ten times, there would not be enough time. Therefore, they could only choose some students to participate or not to announce the results for the time being. When the next class was over, they could finish the game again.
After the teachers explained to the children, all the children were so happy that they wanted to sign up. The scene was very lively. They were all aiming for the two cups of iced red tea as a reward. Without this reward, the number of children who were willing to participate in the competition would be much less.
"Assistant Minister Li, all the students have expressed their willingness to participate. I'm afraid there won't be enough time!"
A teacher reported happily.
"It's fine. Let them compete first. If they don't have enough time, they can compete after the next class!"
Ang Lee said.
"Assistant Minister Li, there's only one class left today. Are we going to let these children stay and play after school? This will delay their return home. If it's dark, they might get into trouble on the way home! "
The teacher answered worriedly.
Ang Lee was surprised. He had not thought about this. After a pause, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You can change the class! You can change the next class to physical education. That will be fine. "
"Change the class? That can be done."
The teacher was stunned for a moment. He smiled and said, "Assistant Minister Li is right. We can change the next class back. I'll announce this good news now."
Changing the class was a very common phenomenon in schools in the future. Some teachers would change classes with other teachers because they had something to do at the last minute. Of course, the situation that Ang Lee encountered in his previous life was more of hogging. For example, the Chinese teacher hogged the physical education class. Then, the physical education class disappeared without a trace. Especially in high school, physical education was not included in the college entrance examination. However, some subjects were compulsory in the college entrance examination. Therefore, the optional class was ruthlessly occupied.
"Wow, wow, wow …"
The students were all crazy. They kept jumping around the field to control the excitement in their hearts.
The corner of Li An's mouth revealed a trace of a smile. How could he not know what these brats were thinking in their hearts? They were all experienced people, so Li An himself knew very well how deep his understanding of these children was.
Naughty children all liked to play. This was the nature of all young animals. Humans were no exception. Moreover, the level of civilization here was not as good as the Tang dynasty, let alone the civilized society of the future. It was very difficult for children to calm down and study. However, it was very easy for them to play on the playground. This was more in line with their nature.
Of course, letting children learn was also for their own good. The reason why humans could easily defeat other animals was not because of brute force, but because of human brains and wisdom. These things needed to be constantly learned to improve, especially when children were young. They had to learn well.
The height of the basket was fixed, but the position of the thrower must also be fixed. Otherwise, the one who stood close to the basket would have an advantage. For the sake of fairness, an insurmountable boundary was drawn in front of the shooting rack.
After the children lined up, they began to shoot. The teachers were personally responsible for recording the results to ensure fairness and justice so that these children would not be dissatisfied.
The smart children were observing from the sidelines. They wanted to see how the others threw the ball and what kind of posture they used to throw the ball. The impatient children, on the other hand, were eager to participate in the competition first. However, because they didn't know the key points, they didn't hit many of the balls.
The age gap was a problem. Li An discovered that the children in the younger classes had a lower probability of hitting the target, while the children in the older classes had a higher probability of hitting the target. After all, the strength and coordination of the children who were too young were not as good as the older children. It was only natural that they would not be able to compete with the older children.
However, the game organized by Ang Lee was very fair. All the children of the same age competed together. Their level was not much different, so it was still relatively fair.
Some of the children were there for the prizes. After failing the competition, they seemed very disappointed. However, there were also children who were there to play. In the situation where they didn't hit a single ball, their faces were full of smiles and they felt very happy.
Of course, more children were cheering happily. When they saw the person they liked making a shot, they shouted happily and cheered. When they saw the person they did not like making a shot, they made a very unfriendly sigh.
In short, the whole playground was very lively. There were children's crisp shouts everywhere. The only flaw was that there were only boys' voices and no girls' laughter. Ang Lee's favorite sound was the simple and crisp laughter of girls. This was the sound that made him feel the most happy.
However, the local development had to be done step by step. It was not yet at the stage of allowing girls to enter the school. At least for the next five years, it was unlikely to recruit female students.
In fact, except for modern times, the world in ancient times would not recruit female students. There were very few female students who hid their gender or were taught by their own families.
Because in an era when men and women were not allowed to touch each other, it would be considered a very crazy thing to let boys and girls study together. Moreover, a lot of housework in the family needed to be done by someone. Also, after ancient women became adults and got married, they had to keep giving birth to children. So, learning so much knowledge was not useful.
"Poor children. Not only are they bound to the school, but there is also no girl in the whole school. This is a monk's school! So pitiful. "
Ang Lee muttered to himself. At the same time, he lamented his past. In his previous life, Ang Lee was just a very ordinary person. He did not have the same luck with women as he did in the Tang dynasty.
During the college entrance examination, he was hot-headed and did not apply for a normal university with many women. Instead, he chose the very bad mechanical major. The end result was naturally very tragic. There was not a single girl in the whole class. There were a few in other classes, but the quality was really not good! It was really very scary.
Thinking about the experience in his previous life, Ang Lee's heart was filled with tears. However, when he thought about everything he had obtained after coming to the Tang dynasty, his heart suddenly did not feel so bad.
The sins he suffered in his previous life were all made up for in this life. This feeling was really good. If it were not for the compensation in his heart, Ang Lee would not have been so crazy to seek pleasure all the way. He even did not let the Princess of Po Lu off. He was really too much of a beast.
When about half of the children had finished the competition, Ang Lee stepped forward to ask about the results.
"How is Class A? What's the highest score of coconut? "
Ang Lee asked the deck first. This class was the youngest child, only six or seven years old. Needless to say, their results were definitely at the bottom of all the classes, even though their baskets were also the lowest.
The teacher shook his head and said, "Assistant Minister Li, the highest score was four children. Only three were in. However, the competition is still going on. Perhaps there will be even better ones."
"Assistant Minister Li, our Class B's situation is slightly better. Two of our children got four, haha!"
The Class B teacher said proudly.
"What's so great about that? Your Class B children are two years older than our Class A children. They are also much taller. How can it be the same?"
The Class A teacher retorted.
Anyone would be unhappy if they lost face. Even if they were teachers, they still had to fight for their own reputation.
"So what if they are two years older? Our Class B's baskets are also much higher than your Class A's!"
The Class B teacher retorted indignantly.
Ang Lee smiled and looked at the Class C teacher, asking, "How's your class? What's the highest score?"
The teacher of Class C said happily, "Assistant Minister Li, we have six students in Class C, and four of them are in."
"See, I was right! Class C's children are older, so there are more of them who got four. "
The Class A teacher jumped up again.
The Class B teacher immediately retorted, "Alright, I won't talk nonsense with you. The competition isn't over yet. Let's just continue competing. Let's see which class gets the most baskets. "
Ang Lee continued to ask the other three classes. Sure enough, each of them got more baskets than the other. In the end, the child from his own class who got the most baskets actually got seven. It was truly a very good result.
In less than a period of time, all the students had completed their competitions, and the results were all recorded by the teachers.
Class A's results were the worst, with only one child getting four baskets. The entire class had a total of fifty-one. Class B's results were slightly better, with three children getting four baskets, for a total of sixty-seven.
Naturally, Class C's situation was even better. One of the students hit five coconuts, and the whole class hit eighty-seven coconuts. One of Class D's students hit six coconuts, and the whole class hit one hundred and one coconuts.
There were three students in Class E who got six coconuts, and all of them got a total of 123 coconuts. The best result was Class E, where there were two students who got seven coconuts, and the whole class got 160 coconuts. On average, each student got more than three coconuts, which was a brilliant result.
After the results were announced, the teachers and students of Class A were somewhat unhappy, while the teachers and students of his own class were bouncing around the field with their heads held high, appearing abnormally excited.
"I've said it before, the age of the students is the most fundamental reason for the difference. The older the class, the better the results. Now this proves it!"
The teacher of Class A was full of resentment.
He was speaking the truth. The final results had already explained everything. Indeed, the older the class, the better the results.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "Don't complain, the competition is just a form of entertainment. As long as everyone is happy, it's fine. The students must develop morally, intellectually, and physically. Not only must they study well, they must also have a good character, and they must also be good at sports. In future competitions between students, other than studying, they must also include sports."
Character was also key, but character was really difficult to evaluate, and it was very difficult to compete, so they could only give up on the competition.
"Yes, yes, yes. The competition is just for entertainment. Everyone must not hurt each other."
The teacher of Class C said.
"Assistant Minister Li, each class has the same number of baskets. How will the prizes be distributed?"
The teacher of Class D directly changed the topic.
Ang Lee said happily, "The students have all worked hard today. The first place of each class, or those who are tied, will be rewarded with two cups of iced red tea. The rest of the participating students will each be rewarded with a cup of iced red tea."
"Oh, oh, oh..."
When the teacher announced this good news, all the students jumped up in joy. This was the happiest moment of their lives.
"The teachers have worked even harder. Everyone can drink as much as you want, but you must not drink too much, or it will be bad if you get sick."
Ang Lee said generously.
"Thank you, Assistant Minister Li."
