In the view of many parents, the child as long as the study is good, even if to him as a nanny and how.
But this monstrous educational philosophy has produced a lot of "giant babies", children grow up with no life skills, and no half of the common sense of life, even wheat, rice do not know, can only rely on daily takeout to solve the three meals a day.
In order to promote the development of quality education, from the moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor comprehensive training of children.
Recently, the Ministry of Education officially issued the "Compulsory Education Curriculum Program", which points out that from September, "labor class" must be independent from the comprehensive practice class, and every school is no exception.
Once the news was released, it was immediately issued a huge discussion and reaction, and many parents also complained.
But many rural parents said, labor classes do not have to worry at all, the child has the advantage of practice!
01, labor lessons return to the classroom
According to the "program" can be seen in this reform, the proportion of English subject courses down to 6-8%, compared to the language and mathematics down a lot.
Instead, the proportion of physical education and other subjects in the curriculum increased, which is in fact precisely for the quality of education and set up.
But the biggest repercussion was the addition of a "labor class" that requires primary and secondary schools to teach no less than one hour a week.
And students are required to learn courses such as cleaning and hygiene, cooking and nutrition, and the use and maintenance of household appliances.
Among them, students in grades 1-2 are required to plant 1-2 kinds of plants or raise 1-2 kinds of small animals; grades 3-4 are required to grow vegetables as well as raise poultry; and grades 5-6 are required to plant 1-2 kinds of local fruit trees, vegetables, flowers and plants or legally raise 1-2 kinds of livestock, and also to learn to cook 2-3 kinds of home-cooked meals and design nutritious recipes.
Grades 7-9 need to master tools such as screws and wrenches, and be able to dismantle small fans and repair small appliances; they also need to experience the productive labor of planting and farming, such as aquaculture and rice planting; and they also need to independently cook 3-4 dishes for lunch and dinner, and design recipes for three meals a day.
For the Ministry of Education, this "new standard" arrangement, many 70, 80 said, when the student labor class, now back to the classroom.
In fact, today's primary and secondary school students, heavy school work, long buried in hard writing, so that the children's physical and mental health has been affected, and now the labor class back again, but also in order to allow students to relieve the pressure, but also allows children to be able to self-reliance and autonomy.
02, parents' opinions
The establishment of the labor class, so that many parents are not too happy, some parents think that the child's main task is to study, do other things is a waste of time, why will the labor class is set as a mandatory course? How is this related to the college entrance exam?
There are also parents who say: "We can teach children to learn to cook, but planting rice, raising chickens and fish even if these are too far away from life, there is no place for the children to operate, set up this task what is the significance of it? Even if the child learns, the hard work is not for farming or breeding?"
There are also parents who said: "The labor class is set up with good intentions to enhance the children's autonomy, but cooking, repairing home appliances and other safety issues arising from who will be responsible? And if the labor class delays the child's study, who will be responsible? Under the 'double-decrease' policy, it is not easy for children to have some rest time, but the task of labor class is occupied, which is not creating pressure?"
Another parent said, "As long as the labor class is done at school and doesn't bother parents, I raise my hand.
"
In fact, the return of labor classes is not as simple as letting children master life skills, but also to sharpen children's will, cultivate their hands-on ability, establish children's labor values, so that they know how to live independently, and understand the reality and significance of the "hard work of all grains. The first is to make sure that you have a good understanding of the meaning of the word "labor" and the meaning of the term "labor".
A parent said: "Cooking, repairing home appliances, and agricultural production are all good life skills, and I couldn't agree more. We had labor classes when we were kids, and it didn't delay our studies.
"
Mrs. Zhang, a parent living in Chongqing, said: "I come from the countryside, I know that farming is not easy, and if you want to raise and plant a good crop, it takes hard work.
And the children's participation in it can cultivate their patience, so that they can also learn without giving up.
"
03, rural children have a big advantage
The author is a rural child, I remember when I first went to kindergarten has learned to mop the floor and wipe the table, elementary school is to clean their own red scarf, socks, handkerchiefs, responsible for brushing the dishes after dinner, when the family feeds the chickens and goats, and go to mow the grass in the farmland after school or goat herding.
By the fourth or fifth grade of elementary school, I was able to make a lunch independently, and my parents were busy at work, so on weekends I made all the meals at home independently.
And to this day, I find that many rural children still have an advantage in cooking and agricultural labor, like the author's cousins, who learned to cook in elementary school, and on weekends when their parents are not at home, they all make their own meals.
While in the educational environment, rural children can not compare with the city, but in the "labor class", rural children's advantage is reflected.
They also have realistic conditions even if they learn to breed and plant.
The return of the "labor class" is very necessary, many children until the work of the four bodies are still not hard to distinguish between the five grains, life skills are basically zero.
After the mask incident, those young people who rely on takeaways and restaurants became anxious and could only learn by doing.
If children were taught the basics from an early age, I believe they would not be in the predicament they are in today.
What do parents think about this?
