Wait with a "water gun" and wash the car
"Students, please see, this is high-pressure water gun . We have talked about its usage and precautions in class. Today you can do it yourself..." On the morning of October 30, in the car washing workshop of the training base, the practical class teacher Ma Wenqi was explaining and demonstrating the usage of high-pressure water guns to students.
For ordinary people, using a high-pressure water gun is simple, but it is not easy for students including 4 students with Down syndrome, 3 intellectual disabilities and 2 physical disabilities. After watching Teacher Ma's repeated demonstrations, the students picked up high-pressure water guns one by one to try. "Teacher Ma, this water gun is really powerful." Zhao Xiangyu was nudged by the water gun's recoil while trying hard to show Teacher Ma his feelings. "Wang Jiashuai, the teacher said that the water gun must be about an arm's distance from the paint surface of the car." Ma Wenqi hurriedly reminded him when he saw Wang Jiashuai holding the water gun getting closer and closer to the paint surface.
Tutorial teacher Xu Liyun said: "Our school is mostly students with intellectual and physical disabilities. In order for them to master more skills, they have to practice over and over again. The teachers will also integrate gratitude education and love education into the teaching link. While students master skills, they can learn to be grateful, improve their confidence in integrating into society, and enhance their ability to integrate into society."
