Parable "The Meaning of Life"

Once upon a time there was a Chinese emperor. He ascended the throne not so long ago, was young, educated and curious. Seeing how many unread books remained in the palace library, he realized that he could not read them all. Then he called the court sage and ordered him to write the entire history of mankind.

The sage worked for a long time. Years and decades passed ... Once the servants brought five hundred books into the chambers of the emperor, in which the whole history of mankind was described. Although the emperor was no longer young, his thirst for knowledge did not leave him, but he could not spend years reading these books and asked to shorten the story, leaving only the most important.

Again long years the sage worked, and now the servants wheeled into the emperor's chambers a cart with fifty books. The emperor was already completely old, he realized that he would not have time to read these books, and asked the sage to leave only the most important thing.

Again the sage set to work. After some time, he managed to fit the entire history of mankind into just one book, but when he brought it, the emperor was lying on his deathbed and was so weak that he could not even open this book. And then the emperor asked to express everything even shorter right now, before he had time to go to another world.

The sage opened the book and wrote only one phrase on the last page: "Man is born, suffers and dies."

Parable "Youth and Wisdom"

The wise old cat lay on the grass and basked in the sun. A nimble kitten rushed by nearby. He tumbled past the cat, then briskly jumped up and again began to run in circles.

What are you doing? the cat asked lazily.

I'm trying to catch my tail! - the kitten answered breathlessly.

But why? - the cat laughed.

I was told that the tail is my happiness. If I catch my tail, I will catch my happiness. So I have been chasing the tail for the third day, but it always eludes me.

Yes, - the wise old cat smiled, - once I, like you, ran after my happiness, but it all the time eluded me. I left this venture. After a while, I realized that there is no point in chasing happiness: it always follows me on my heels. Wherever I am, my happiness is always with me; you just need to remember this.

To which the answer came:

We both interpreted the dream in the same way. But it all depends on what to say, but as to tell.

For effective communication between the teacher and the parents, conscious use of tactical techniques.

Correct handling.

First of all, you need to choose optimal shape treatment, since it is the beginning of a conversation that can affect the success of communication. Most likely, the teacher will greet the parents with the words "good afternoon", "hello", "glad to see you", etc. Very often teachers, especially educators kindergarten, they ask, is it possible to call the parents with whom they have developed good relations, by "you". And although there are no strict prohibitions on this score, the ethics of pedagogical communication still prescribes certain restrictions. It is better to call parents, at least within the walls of a kindergarten or school, by their first name and patronymic (and not just by their first name) and by “you”, even if you know them well. The "you" form is more neutral, so its use will make it possible to be less dependent on the interlocutor and, if necessary, provide information that is not the most pleasant for him, without experiencing inconvenience.

If the teacher has difficulty remembering names, then it is recommended to make a list of the names and patronymics of all parents and keep it in a conspicuous place, for example, under glass on a desk or on a door. In addition, there are special techniques for memorizing first and last names. One of them is to try to repeat the name of the interlocutor in the very first minutes of communication when meeting each other (you can several times).

When preparing for a speech in front of a group of parents, it is also important for the teacher to think over the form of appeal in advance. It would be inappropriate to call the parents attending the parent-teacher conference "friends" or "dear ones." And although this fact is known to everyone, often at parent meetings, which, as a rule, only mothers are present, such addresses as "girls", "mothers", "ladies", etc. are heard.



It is obvious that the teacher, when addressing the parents of pupils' pupils, must show due respect and attention.

2. A bright start. In order to involve a communication partner in contact, it is necessary to make the very first minutes surprising, unexpected, bright. Do not start with comments or criticism - it is better to create a positive emotional attitude at first. It could be something from life, something unexpected, an interesting question. OL: through the mouth of a baby.

The information is necessary and understandable.

Of course, in order for the interlocutor to be interested in communicating with you, you need to have the information he needs. But it is also necessary to have sufficient vocabularyotherwise you run the risk of simply being misunderstood. Moreover, the ability to use synonyms and antonyms in speech, the ability to build sentences is of great importance. Avoid using professional words and phrases when talking to parents.... If you consider it necessary, then, pronouncing, perhaps, unfamiliar terms for them, immediately, without a pause, give a definition of the concept. This method will help your parents understand you exactly. In addition, such tactics help to increase the self-esteem of moms and dads (and especially older people, who sometimes find it difficult to keep abreast of modern changes in the language), as well as to establish contact, equal communication.

Serious preparation is required - to know the material well.
