go visit the museum with my students : week 227
Hello HIVe friends in this community. This time I will follow the contest held by @galenkp. A weekly contest that this time caught my attention among several topics that must be chosen. And I chose the last topic, namely "going to visit a Museum or playing Mini Golf". And from this topic I chose to visit a museum and this time I was not alone but went to the Museum with the students there.
Everyone has their own hobbies, pleasures and satisfactions. Like why I choose to visit a museum on weekends with my students because I can't play golf..ha..ha. besides that there is one basic reason why I visit this place. because this place seems to be a sacred place that should not be visited by today's teenagers so that they will not glance at this place for the rest of their lives as a tourist destination and this is the reality. I have never seen my student's girlfriend invite me to spend time at a museum. Their list is always concerts, cinemas, cafes and museum parks are the most ridiculous lists for them.
And this is not just a nonsense story but a real story that I asked directly from 100 percent of the students I asked right now. They are already in senior high school but this is the first time they have visited a museum. and it's like I want to laugh and cry at the same time that in my country it is very concerning for them to care about things that smell of History because they find it very boring.
However, I have to make this visit as fun as possible so that it is not boring because this is not just a visit but there is an element of direct History learning that is included in the school curriculum so that they have to see some collections of objects in the museum and then summarize them and this is done with their History teacher in a private room. While I and other friends who have finished their duties to secure our students. we are busy taking pictures and posing according to the statues in the museum display case just to be a souvenir and take pictures together of course.
It's okay for my vacation to accompany these students because I'm sure this will be an unforgettable memory because next year they will graduate from senior high school. It's okay for me to be a little tired to manage my students and make peace with myself that holidays don't have to be about gathering with family, tourist attractions and just channeling hobbies. And as I said that life is a choice and my choice this Saturday weekend is to accompany my students to visit the museum and I enjoy this trip.
