Recently, a video of children playing "Eagle Catching Chicken" has attracted the attention of many netizens. In the picture, the person who plays the role of "protector" is Yaoyao, a child from Changsha, Hunan, who is sitting in a wheelchair. Because of the disease, Yaoyao's legs cannot walk. Fortunately, Yaoyao met loving teachers and friendly classmates on campus. The warm collective allowed her to grow up healthily and happily in school.
When Yaoyao was 1 year old, she was diagnosed with a rare disease - spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), which made her unable to stand and walk with her legs. Due to special circumstances, Yaoyao did not go to kindergarten. When school started in September last year, Yaoyao entered the campus for the first time.
Liu Shiyao’s mother Hu Yanping : Because Yaoyao is a special child, her strength is much smaller than that of normal children. Thinking about her going to school, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep for a few nights. I worry about whether she can sit still in class and integrate into the group.
At the beginning, Hu Yanping pushed her daughter to school in a wheelchair every day and had to stay with her in the classroom.
Zou Dianqi, a teacher at Changsha County Baixi Experimental School : is particularly dependent on her mother. As soon as she loses sight of her mother in the blink of an eye, she starts crying, and no matter how much she is coaxed, she cannot be coaxed. Giving her food, including performing magic tricks on her, makes her unhappy.
Then the teacher introduced Yaoyao's situation to the class. Many students voluntarily raised their hands and formed a "helping group". In the past semester, seven classmates in the class acted as Yaoyao's little helpers, helping her solve difficulties such as reading, eating, and going to the toilet.
Liu Shiyao’s mother Hu Yanping : In preparation for class, my child cannot bend down to take books from her schoolbag, and she cannot open the zipper of her pencil case, so the students play these roles and help. She is busy.
When the weather is good, under the premise of ensuring safety, the teacher will also arrange outdoor activities to encourage Yaoyao to participate in group games. After a period of time, Yaoyao adapted to collective life and liked coming to school more and more.
Liu Shiyao : I am happy with . I have made many friends and learned a lot of knowledge. There are also art classes and Chinese classes that I like.
Liu Shiyao’s classmate Liu Xingtong : we will help each other and help her solve the problem.
Liu Shiyao’s classmate Chen Mancheng : is a good friend who holds hands with her and plays with her like eagle and chicken, guessing the middle finger and one-two-three wooden man.
Now Yaoyao answers questions, reads and writes like others, and she also completes her classwork very seriously. Not long ago, Yaoyao also participated in an extracurricular painting training class.
Liu Shiyao’s mother Hu Yanping: Yaoyao is very adaptable. She is very good now. I feel relieved to leave her to the teacher now. I can not come to school all day or all morning. She also gets along relatively happily with her classmates, just like a normal child. I am really grateful to them and I am very lucky to have met them. They bring a lot of warmth to my daughter and make her happy every day.
