Solar Term Culture and Labor Literacy Education

Hangzhou No.1 Middle School allows students to grow vegetables according to the 24 solar terms, which can cultivate children's practical ability and corresponding cognitive ability. At present, many people lack practical experience in growing vegetables, and often have weak cognitive ability to crops, and even many people don't know the growth process of crops. Therefore, the school can let students know about the growth of crops through practice, and at the same time deepen their understanding of the 24 solar terms, and more importantly, exercise their hands-on ability. I think the practice of this school is really instructive, which can make students realize that food is hard to come by, so they should cherish it and not waste it at will.

Think of grass as leek. I believe many adults can't tell what leek is and what grass is when they go to the countryside to play. Grass is mowed like leeks everywhere. The reason why such a big joke is made, and this phenomenon is very common, is because children now know nothing about planting and crops. Even children in rural areas, parents will not teach their children to farm or tell them the types of vegetables. This has led to a gap in the understanding and planting of crops. Many educators say that if this state continues, there will be no human crops in a few years, which is a terrible phenomenon.

The course is very meaningful. Netizens said that the curriculum of this middle school in Hangzhou is very meaningful and should be promoted in major schools. Only by making children realize that every grain is hard can they know to study hard and cherish food. Of course, more importantly, children will not recognize the grass as leek when they grow up, and even have to buy food. Don't think this is alarmist. Many people around me don't know some vegetables, especially men. Ironically, when they go to the supermarket to buy food, they have to contact their wives to confirm whether it is that kind of food.

I think it is very instructive for Hangzhou No.1 Middle School to let students grow vegetables according to the 24 solar terms.
