No, not really. I've hardly ever heard of 'paddle holes at school' being a common theme in typical school stories. Most school stories focus on things like friendships, academics, or school events.
One common story in school and kindergarten could be 'The Little Red Hen'. In this story, the hen finds some wheat and asks her friends for help in planting, harvesting, and baking bread. But they all refuse. In the end, the hen does all the work herself and enjoys the bread while her friends watch. It teaches kids about the value of hard work.
Many school ghost stories stem from people's fears and legends, some of which may be true. Here are some famous school ghost stories:
The "alarm clock ghost" in "Flowers in the Mirror": Legend has it that in the Qing Dynasty, there was a student who got up to study because he heard the alarm clock in his dormitory. However, when he walked to the bed, he found that he was a stranger in the mirror. He screamed in fear, only to realize that it was just a dream. This story hinted that people might see unusual sights when they woke up.
2."Ghost of the Jia family" in "Dream of the Red Chamber": Legend has it that in the Dream of the Red Chamber, a relative of the Jia family passed away due to illness, but after his death, his soul did not leave his home but remained at home. Later, it was discovered that he often appeared in the mirror at home and his image became more and more blurred.
3."Yaksha Kingdom" in "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio": Legend has it that there is a country called Yaksha Kingdom in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, where the Yaksha race lives. It was said that the Hag Race would fly to human homes at night and threaten them in various ways. One of the stories described a girl who was captured by the Hag Tribe at night. Her father heard her scream and went to find a Taoist priest to seek revenge. The Taoist priest told him that if the girl could transplant her heart into another person's body, she could escape from Yaksha Kingdom.
These school ghost stories all contained horror, legend, and mysterious elements that brought great imagination to people. However, regardless of the authenticity of these stories, they still became part of the classic literature, making people feel fear and excitement in reading them.
I once tripped while running to class. I was in a hurry because the bell was about to ring. I didn't see a small step and went flying forward. My books scattered everywhere and everyone around me started laughing. It was so embarrassing.
One positive school story could be about a group of students who formed a club to help clean up the local park. They worked hard every week and not only made the park beautiful but also learned about environmental conservation.
Yes, one positive aspect could be the learning of consequences. Students who were caned might have learned very quickly that there are negative consequences for bad behavior. It was a very direct form of teaching right from wrong.
Often, the first consequence is missing out on important lessons. For example, in a story I heard, a student bunked school for a week and when he came back, he was completely lost in math class. He couldn't understand the new concepts and had to work extra hard to catch up.
Definitely. Such stories spread false and demeaning ideas. They can make students, especially girls, feel objectified and ashamed. This can have a serious impact on their self - esteem and mental health. Moreover, it distracts from the real purpose of high school which is education and personal growth.
No. High school gloryhole stories are not appropriate for school discussions. These types of stories often involve inappropriate and vulgar content that goes against the values and ethics that should be maintained in a school environment.
