Students offer ideas for enjoying spring while still 'studying'

The policy is correct and humane. However, according to many teachers, if students are off school for a long time (for example, in Ho Chi Minh City, it is usually half a month or more every year) without anything to "assign work" to them, they will neglect their studies, easily become distracted, procrastinate, and "get involved" very slowly when they return to school after Tet. So is there a way for students to "enjoy spring" without "forgetting their study duties"?

Making banh chung, one of the activities many schools organize for students to enjoy Tet

Surveying the opinions of teachers and especially students, we found that they offered many very reasonable solutions. Teacher LHTruong, who teaches math at a high school in Tan Binh District, Ho Chi Minh City, said: "We have to give students something to do at home during Tet. It shouldn't be too heavy, it should be light, but it must be there." Many students also agreed with this point of view. An 11th grade female student said: "The Tet holiday is quite long, even though the teachers don't give homework, I still take the initiative to study by myself before going back to school after Tet."

According to many students, in order for them to have a happy Tet holiday and think about school, teachers should have a way to "assign tasks" that are appropriate to their ability and the meaning of Tet. One student said: "Every Tet holiday, I go to visit beautiful tourist attractions in the city. If the teacher (for example, in the local education subject) assigns an assignment to describe the city's landscapes, I will take advantage of the opportunity to do it." Another student suggested: "Teachers should change the way they assign learning tasks to make them easier by collecting or making lesson clips. Just ask students to watch to "warm up" their knowledge, but don't give them heavy homework."

Most other students agree that testing knowledge and lessons right after returning to school after Tet is necessary to get students into the rhythm of studying, especially grade 12. But the scores should not be too important, but only bonus points should be taken.

In addition, according to many students, any subject can use the Tet holiday to harvest products and test their knowledge applied from reality. For example, with literature, we learn from Tet customs, habits, parallel sentences, wishes...; with biology, we learn about nutrition, eating, resting, studying...; with experiential activities - career guidance, we learn about jobs and products from traditional Tet...; with civic education, we learn about kinship relationships, ethics, traditional concepts... All aim to shape and educate students' maturity.
