第一篇：我们为什么要上学主题班会教案
让梦想起航
——我们为什么要上学读书
主题班会教案
——七年级七班
主题班会目标：
1、帮助学生正确认识学习的重要性。
2、引导学生树立正确的人生导向。教学过程：
【主持人】：同学们，我们来到初中学习即将过去一个学期，我们期待的寒假即将来临，伴随而来的还有我们中国重大而喜庆的节日——春节。每当这个时候，我们每个同学都会打心底里高兴，假期来了，终于不用那么早起床，可以睡到自然醒了，还能做一些自己随心所欲的事情，多么值得期待。而春节的到来，也给我们带来了无限的诱惑：亲人的团聚，朋友的相邀，还有很多的压岁钱，甚至还有各种各样不同的思想观念都会一拥而入。
每年的这个时候，外出打工的父母回来了，在外摸爬滚打的亲戚朋友回来了，他们回来给我们谈论的最多的可能就是外出打工的经历。由于我们对外面知之甚少，我们对他们的描述感到新奇，尤其是他们谈到打工一个月可以赚到大笔的金钱。他们的侃侃而谈会使我们倍加向往，可能在座的很多同学都期待着有他们一样的“神奇”经历。
那么他们谈论的真是如此吗？是否背后还隐藏着其他不为人知的一面？他们的生活就是我们所追求的吗？他们的这种经历真值得我们舍去美好的学习时光而去追随吗？我们今后将如何走好我们人生之中最为关键的一步？今天晚上，我们就在这里共同探讨一下这些问题。
【活动一】【可以在课前先做布置让学生写好，到时候直接交流即可】 【板书】分享梦想：世界很大，梦想很远
【板书】能不能告诉我你的梦想是什么？【学生互相交流，分享，时间控制7-10分钟】 【主持人】：是想光宗耀祖？成为名人？成为一个大老板？去一个美丽的地方旅行？......【主持人】：通过大家的交流，分享，我们知道，我们每一个同学都有属于自己的梦想，这些梦想有大有小，有长期的也有短期的，我们怎样才能使他变成真实？
【活动二】【可以在课前先做布置让学生写好，到时候直接交流即可】
【板书】为了你的梦想，你要做些什么？才能使一切不显得那么遥远？【学生互相交流，分享，时间控制7-10分钟】 【主持人】：听了大家提出的各种不同做法，可以看出，大家都有了一定的方向，我认为不论何时我们都应该做到： 【板书】
————适时的时间做适当的事 【主持人】：现在我们身处求学阶段，那我们做的最适当的事是什么呢？想必大家都会明白，那就是——上学读书【板书】 我们刚才都分享了自己的梦想，提出了自己的做法，要实现它绝非易事。但有一句话说得好：读书能成就梦想。
【活动三】【分组讨论，控制时间7-8分钟】如果我们受到身边不良风气的影响而过早地放弃自己的学业，那么我们在今后的人生道路中将会如何走下去？

【班主任】：而我们读了高中，会有什么出路呢？这里我们也跟大家一起分享一下： 我们读了高中，再进一步，我们绝大部分的同学会选择考一所好的大学，请看看2014年高考录取分数线，我们离大学有多远？是否遥不可及？ 【板书】2014年广西高考录取分数线 一本：理科
520
文科
550 二本：理科
407
文科
463 三本：理科
326
文科
404 大专：理科、文科均为
200 【班主任】【请各班主任适当修改】我们高考6个科目，总分750分，200分就能上大学！每科平均只要考到34分。如果你努力一些，一不小心就能考上本科~那是多么值得高兴地事情。可能有同学说:”我读这些200分就能上的大学有什么用？”我想告诉你的是，这也是大学，你毕业之后所有学校发给你的都是国家教育部认可的毕业证，我们的毕业证就是一块敲门砖，他将为你今后找工作做下坚实的铺垫。也可能因为这样，他将你的人生梦想变成现实！
【以上内容请各班主任适当调整，可以从大学的生活，大学的学习，大学对今后工作的影响等方面展开】 【主持人】最后，请让我们以一首歌《我的未来不是梦》【合唱】来结束本节班会课！【附歌词】【请在上课前抄到教室的小黑板上】
【我的未来不是梦】
你是不是像我在太阳下低头
流着汗水默默辛苦的工作
你是不是像我就算受了冷漠
也不放弃自己想要的生活
你是不是像我整天忙着追求
追求一种意想不到的温柔
你是不是像我曾经茫然失措
一次一次徘徊在十字街头
因为我不在乎
别人怎么说
我从来没有忘记我对自己的承诺
对爱的执著
我知道我的未来不是梦
我认真的过每一分钟
我的未来不是梦
我的心跟着希望在动
我的未来不是梦 我认真的过每一分钟 我的未来不是梦 我的心跟着希望在动 跟着希望在动
你是不是像我整天忙着追求追求一种意想不到的温柔 你是不是像我曾经茫然失措一次一次徘徊在十字街头 因为我不在乎 别人怎么说

第三篇：《我们为什么要上学？》
21．作文
寒窗读书十余载，蓦然回首，几多欢喜，几多悲辛；而今，大家面临高考，将上大学，参加工作，展望未来，几许期盼，几许迷茫 „„
请你选择一个角度，以“我们为什么要读书”为题，写一篇作文，谈谈自己的认识。要求：1，写出自己的真情实感；2，除诗歌外，文体不限；3，不少于800字。
美国总统奥巴马在开学第一天（2009年9月8日），到弗吉尼亚州，阿林顿市，一所高中参加集会，并发表电视演讲《我们为什么要上学？》：你们中的每一个人都会有自己擅长的东西，每一个人都是有用之材，而发现自己的才能是什么，就是你们要对自己担起的责任，教育给你们提供了发现自己才能的机会；我可以向你保证，不管你将来想要做什么，你都需要相应的教育；我们需要你们中的每一个人都培养和发展自己的天赋、技能和才智，来解决我们所面对的最困难的问题„„
今年合肥某初中曾要求全校学生在早自习时间诵读奥巴马的这篇演说词。消息一出，网上议论纷纷，或赞成或反对，吵得沸沸扬扬。
不管人们对这所学校的做法有何看法，但大家都应思考一下：我们为什么要读书？无论你是学生，是家长，还是教育工作者。
高中毕业生即将上大学，走向社会，必须树立正确的人生观，学习观，价值观。此时认真思考一下“为什么要读书”，是十分必要的。
从写作的角度说，本文可以写成一篇记叙文，记叙自己学习生活的经历与感悟，也可以写成一篇议论文，谈一谈对读书学习的理解认识。但立意有高下，感情有真伪。
评价这篇作文，在内容方面，主要看立意高下，感情真伪。此题没有多少审题难度，学生可以自由抒写自己的学习生活感受。小而言之，可写为改变家庭生活境遇，为自己的人生发展争取一个高起点；可写为改变家乡贫穷落后的面貌，投身家乡经济建设，提高文化生活水平，回报桑梓；大而言之，可写为国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福，为实现中国梦。但不管从哪个角度写，都要写出自己的真情实感，都应做到内容集中，观点鲜明。空谈大道理，言之无物，或格调低俗，鼠目寸光，均不会得到阅卷老师的认可。人生风云，笔底波澜。学生可联系现实生活，谈自己对读书目的的认识，大学毕业生择业问题（北大高材生卖猪肉问题，清华毕业生当保安问题，硕士生竞争环卫工人，大学生争当掏粪工等），那些读书成才为父母争光、为国家争光的正面人物，那些读书做官又贪污腐败锒铛入狱的反面人物，均可入题。
第四篇：爸爸,我们为什么要上学[范文]
爸爸，我们为什么要上学?
90后到10后的一代，是物质及其富足的一代，他们从小就在优越的环境中长大，过着吃喝不愁的生活。父母对他们唯一的期望与要求就是：好好读书!可是为什么要好好读书，读书的意义究竟是什么，却很少有人告诉他们。
面对这个问题，一位平民爸爸的回答，很接地气，值得参考.....“爸爸，我为什么要上学呢?”儿子上学不久问爸爸。
爸爸说：儿子，你知道吧？一颗小树长一年的话，只能用来做篱笆，或当柴烧。
十年的树可以做檩条。
二十年的树用处就大了，可以做粱，可以做柱子，可以做家具......一个小孩子如果不上学，他7岁就可以放羊，长大了能放一大群羊，但他除了放羊，基本干不了别的。
如果上6六年学，小学毕业，在农村他可以用一些新技术种地，在城市可以到建筑工地打工，做保安，也可以当个小商小贩，小学的知识够用了。
如果上9年学，初中毕业，他就可以学习一些机械的操作了。
如果上12年学，高中毕业，他就可以学习很多机械的修理了。
如果大学毕业，他就可以设计高楼大厦，铁 路桥梁了。
如果他硕士博士毕业，他就可能发明创造出一些我们原来没有的东西。
知道了吗?
儿子：知道了。
爸爸又问：放羊、种地、当保安，丢人不丢人?
儿子：丢人。
爸爸说：儿子，不丢人。他们不偷不抢，干活赚钱，养活自己的孩子和父母，一点也不丢人。?
不是说不上学，或上学少就没用。就像一年的小树一样，有用，但用处不如大树多。不读书或读书少也有用，但对社会的贡献少，他们赚的钱就少。读书多，花的钱也多，用的时间也多，但是贡献大，自己赚的钱也多。
第五篇：我们为什么要上学(英文)
美国总统奥巴马开学演讲 英文全文
2009年9月8日 在弗吉尼亚州阿林顿市
Hello, everybody!Thank you.Thank you.Thank you, everybody.All right, everybody go ahead and have a seat.How is everybody doing today?(Applause。)How about Tim Spicer?(Applause。)I am here with students at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia.And we've got students tuning in from all across America, from kindergarten through 12th grade.And I am just so glad that all could join us today.And I want to thank Wakefield for being such an outstanding host.Give yourselves a big round of applause.(Applause。)I know that for many of you, today is the first day of school.And for those of you in kindergarten, or starting middle or high school, it's your first day in a new school, so it's understandable if you're a little nervous.I imagine there are some seniors out there who are feeling pretty good right now--(applause)--with just one more year to go.And no matter what grade you're in, some of you are probably wishing it were still summer and you could've stayed in bed just a little bit longer this morning.I know that feeling.When I was young, my family lived overseas.I lived in Indonesia for a few years.And my mother, she didn't have the money to send me where all the American kids went to school, but she thought it was important for me to keep up with an American education.So she decided to teach me extra lessons herself, Monday through Friday.But because she had to go to work, the only time she could do it was at 4:30 in the morning.Now, as you might imagine, I wasn't too happy about getting up that early.And a lot of times, I'd fall asleep right there at the kitchen table.But whenever I'd complain, my mother would just give me one of those looks and she'd say, “This is no picnic for me either, buster.”(Laughter。)So I know that some of you are still adjusting to being back at school.But I'm here today because I have something important to discuss with you.I'm here because I want to talk with you about your education and what's expected of all of you in this new school year.Now, I've given a lot of speeches about education.And I've talked about responsibility a lot.I've talked about teachers' responsibility for inspiring students and pushing you to learn.I've talked about your parents' responsibility for making sure you stay on track, and you get your homework done, and don't spend every waking hour in front of the TV or with the Xbox.I've talked a lot about your government's responsibility for setting high standards, and supporting teachers and principals, and turning around schools that aren't working, where students aren't getting the opportunities that they deserve.But at the end of the day, we can have the most dedicated teachers, the most supportive parents, the best schools in the world--and none of it will make a difference, none of it will matter unless all of you fulfill your responsibilities, unless you show up to those schools, unless you pay attention to those teachers, unless you listen to your parents and grandparents and other adults and put in the hard work it takes to succeed.That's what I want to focus on today: the responsibility each of you has for your education.I want to start with the responsibility you have to yourself.Every single one of you has something that you're good at.Every single one of you has something to offer.And you have a responsibility to yourself to discover what that is.That's the opportunity an education can provide.Maybe you could be a great writer--maybe even good enough to write a book or articles in a newspaper--but you might not know it until you write that English paper--that English class paper that's assigned to you.Maybe you could be an innovator or an inventor--maybe even good enough to come up with the next iPhone or the new medicine or vaccine--but you might not know it until you do your project for your science class.Maybe you could be a mayor or a senator or a Supreme Court justice--but you might not know that until you join student government or the debate team.And no matter what you want to do with your life, I guarantee that you'll need an education to do it.You want to be a doctor, or a teacher, or a police officer? You want to be a nurse or an architect, a lawyer or a member of our military? You're going to need a good education for every single one of those careers.You cannot drop out of school and just drop into a good job.You've got to train for it and work for it and learn for it.And this isn't just important for your own life and your own future.What you make of your education will decide nothing less than the future of this country.The future of America depends on you.What you're learning in school today will determine whether we as a nation can meet our greatest challenges in the future.You'll need the knowledge and problem-solving skills you learn in science and math to cure diseases like cancer and AIDS, and to develop new energy technologies and protect our environment.You'll need the insights and critical-thinking skills you gain in history and social studies to fight poverty and homelessness, crime and discrimination, and make our nation more fair and more free.You'll need the creativity and ingenuity you develop in all your classes to build new companies that will create new jobs and boost our economy.We need every single one of you to develop your talents and your skills and your intellect so you can help us old folks solve our most difficult problems.If you don't do that--if you quit on school--you're not just quitting on yourself, you're quitting on your country.Now, I know it's not always easy to do well in school.I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now that can make it hard to focus on your schoolwork.I get it.I know what it's like.My father left my family when I was two years old, and I was raised by a single mom who had to work and who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn't always able to give us the things that other kids had.There were times when I missed having a father in my life.There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn't fit in.So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been on school, and I did some things I'm not proud of, and I got in more trouble than I should have.And my life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.But I was--I was lucky.I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.My wife, our First Lady Michelle Obama, she has a similar story.Neither of her parents had gone to college, and they didn't have a lot of money.But they worked hard, and she worked hard, so that she could go to the best schools in this country.Some of you might not have those advantages.Maybe you don't have adults in your life who give you the support that you need.Maybe someone in your family has lost their job and there's not enough money to go around.Maybe you live in a neighborhood where you don't feel safe, or have friends who are pressuring you to do things you know aren't right.But at the end of the day, the circumstances of your life--what you look like, where you come from, how much money you have, what you've got going on at home--none of that is an excuse for neglecting your homework or having a bad attitude in school.That's no excuse for talking back to your teacher, or cutting class, or dropping out of school.There is no excuse for not trying.Where you are right now doesn't have to determine where you'll end up.No one's written your destiny for you, because here in America, you write your own destiny.You make your own future.That's what young people like you are doing every day, all across America.Young people like Jazmin Perez, from Roma, Texas.Jazmin didn't speak English when she first started school.Neither of her parents had gone to college.But she worked hard, earned good grades, and got a scholarship to Brown University--is now in graduate school, studying public health, on her way to becoming Dr.Jazmin Perez.I'm thinking about Andoni Schultz, from Los Altos, California, who's fought brain cancer since he was three.He's had to endure all sorts of treatments and surgeries, one of which affected his memory, so it took him much longer--hundreds of extra hours--to do his schoolwork.But he never fell behind.He's headed to college this fall.And then there's Shantell Steve, from my hometown of Chicago, Illinois.Even when bouncing from foster home to foster home in the toughest neighborhoods in the city, she managed to get a job at a local health care center, start a program to keep young people out of gangs, and she's on track to graduate high school with honors and go on to college.And Jazmin, Andoni, and Shantell aren't any different from any of you.They face challenges in their lives just like you do.In some cases they've got it a lot worse off than many of you.But they refused to give up.They chose to take responsibility for their lives, for their education, and set goals for themselves.And I expect all of you to do the same.That's why today I'm calling on each of you to set your own goals for your education--and do everything you can to meet them.Your goal can be something as simple as doing all your homework, paying attention in class, or spending some time each day reading a book.Maybe you'll decide to get involved in an extracurricular activity, or volunteer in your community.Maybe you'll decide to stand up for kids who are being teased or bullied because of who they are or how they look, because you believe, like I do, that all young people deserve a safe environment to study and learn.Maybe you'll decide to take better care of yourself so you can be more ready to learn.And along those lines, by the way, I hope all of you are washing your hands a lot, and that you stay home from school when you don't feel well, so we can keep people from getting the flu this fall and winter.But whatever you resolve to do, I want you to commit to it.I want you to really work at it.I know that sometimes you get that sense from TV that you can be rich and successful without any hard work--that your ticket to success is through rapping or basketball or being a reality TV star.Chances are you're not going to be any of those things.The truth is, being successful is hard.You won't love every subject that you study.You won't click with every teacher that you have.Not every homework assignment will seem completely relevant to your life right at this minute.And you won't necessarily succeed at everything the first time you try.That's okay.Some of the most successful people in the world are the ones who've had the most failures.J.K.Rowling's--who wrote Harry Potter--her first Harry Potter book was rejected 12 times before it was finally published.Michael Jordan was cut from his high school basketball team.He lost hundreds of games and missed thousands of shots during his career.But he once said, “I have failed over and over and over again in my life.And that's why I succeed.” These people succeeded because they understood that you can't let your failures define you--you have to let your failures teach you.You have to let them show you what to do differently the next time.So if you get into trouble, that doesn't mean you're a troublemaker, it means you need to try harder to act right.If you get a bad grade, that doesn't mean you're stupid, it just means you need to spend more time studying.No one's born being good at all things.You become good at things through hard work.You're not a varsity athlete the first time you play a new sport.You don't hit every note the first time you sing a song.You've got to practice.The same principle applies to your schoolwork.You might have to do a math problem a few times before you get it right.You might have to read something a few times before you understand it.You definitely have to do a few drafts of a paper before it's good enough to hand in.Don't be afraid to ask questions.Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.I do that every day.Asking for help isn't a sign of weakness, it's a sign of strength because it shows you have the courage to admit when you don't know something, and that then allows you to learn something new.So find an adult that you trust--a parent, a grandparent or teacher, a coach or a counselor--and ask them to help you stay on track to meet your goals.And even when you're struggling, even when you're discouraged, and you feel like other people have given up on you, don't ever give up on yourself, because when you give up on yourself, you give up on your country.The story of America isn't about people who quit when things got tough.It's about people who kept going, who tried harder, who loved their country too much to do anything less than their best.It's the story of students who sat where you sit 250 years ago, and went on to wage a revolution and they founded this nation.Young people.Students who sat where you sit 75 years ago who overcame a Depression and won a world war;who fought for civil rights and put a man on the moon.Students who sat where you sit 20 years ago who founded Google and Twitter and Facebook and changed the way we communicate with each other.So today, I want to ask all of you, what's your contribution going to be? What problems are you going to solve? What discoveries will you make? What will a President who comes here in 20 or 50 or 100 years say about what all of you did for this country? Now, your families, your teachers, and I are doing everything we can to make sure you have the education you need to answer these questions.I'm working hard to fix up your classrooms and get you the books and the equipment and the computers you need to learn.But you've got to do your part, too.So I expect all of you to get serious this year.I expect you to put your best effort into everything you do.I expect great things from each of you.So don't let us down.Don't let your family down or your country down.Most of all, don't let yourself down.Make us all proud.Thank you very much, everybody.God bless you.God bless America.Thank you。
