老師到底有沒有教

佑佑暑假後升上了六年級,在美式的教育體系上來說,是邁入了第二個階段了,也就是 middle school,和在台灣傳統的有些許的不同。

其實,不只是他陌生,對我和 Jerry 來說,也是另一完全茫然的體驗,似乎又回到了剛到 TAS 時的手足無措的模樣。

他們不再有班級的編制,上課就是按照課表開始跑堂了,也不再像 lower school 一樣,享受沒有作業的周末時光。

開學一個多月,不只我這當媽的緊張,我想他也是有極大的壓力,以數學課來說,除了例行的作業,平均每一個多星期就會有十題左右的 Problem Solving,這些題目還真不容易,上星期就是令人寫到令人抓狂的排列組合,不但我自己先試算,在同一時間,也得跟他一邊解釋,一邊提示他思考方向,要他自己提筆練習解題,然後兩人才互相檢討訂正,才把最後的 final 謄寫在作業紙上。

這禮拜的呢,則是玩起 cryptarithms 的練習題,就是那種英文字母都有對應數字的解碼,老實說我是花了不少時間解那讓我頭髮白的三題,但是完成時的那種成就感老實說挺不錯的。但是就在完成的同時,Jerry 也問我,我們翻遍了他的數學練習本,裡面根本就沒有類似的題型,不是沒有喔,是連邊都沒見,而我就要花如此長的時間來解題,以小朋友的能力究竟要用掉多少的時間來解題。這當然是我們私底下的對話啦,在佑佑面前,我們也是三申五令的要他上課要專心,才不會做題目時"霧沙沙"。

我們這周末才認真的問他,你們老師上課到底都在教甚麼呀?他竟然說就講一些些練習本上的,然後就要他們做練習本上的題目。我和 Jerry 互看了許久,實在不知道該說些甚麼,只能 email 老師約時間了解詳情。Jerry 跟我說,要我問問其他的媽媽們,看看人家的孩子到底是都怎麼做功課,唉 …… 真的不知道耶,其實問了也有點白搭,現在大家都講得很保留,官方說法就是:都是孩子自己做功課耶,我也沒看不知道!

是我年紀大了,跟不上時代了嗎?還是現在的孩子們,個個是神童,老師只要點其一,其他的九,便能立即領悟。兒子,老師到底有沒有教呀?
