China Education News (Reporter Liu Yu Correspondent Gao Wang) The land of Liaoshen in winter is covered with snow. Located at the junction of Shenyang City and Fushun City in Liaoning Province, the agricultural ecology science popularization base of Shen Fuyucai Experimental School is warm. Since January 2, the school's primary school.
The fifth and sixth grade children have to take the final exam of this semester's labor course, and the exam question is "making tofu", and they have to make soy milk and tofu from the soybeans they have sown, maintained, picked, and dried for a year.
Exam" begins. I saw a hand-cranked stone mill on the lectern in the classroom, and the students of Class 8 of Year 6 gathered around the teacher, listening to the teacher explain how beans become soybean milk, and how to turn into tofu The principle and process.
Immediately after that, the students moved on to the hands-on stage. One student pours soaked beans onto the stone mill with a spoon while the other turns the handrocker, and in a short time, thick raw soy milk gurgles out of the gap in the grinding plate. After grinding a small half basin, the teacher instructed the students to filter and heat the soy milk, and the fragrance instantly diffused in the classroom. Subsequently, it goes through a series of complex operations of solidification, extrusion, and demoulding. When everyone worked together to carefully uncover the gauze wrapped around the tofu, a piece of white and square tofu jumped in front of them.
Oh, my God! The admiration came and went. Of course, the difficulty coefficient of making tofu is relatively high, and some groups of tofu are not very formed, but the teacher praised their practical spirit and announced that the class passed the exam, and this year's labor class came to a successful end. "It's not easy to make tofu, it took two classes to make such a small piece. The students were talking. "I will definitely not waste food in the future. Student Yang Yuqi said. "Our labor class not only allows children to learn agricultural knowledge and planting techniques and agricultural product production skills, but more importantly, they must learn to love life, respect labor, cherish food, and know how to discover scientific principles in life and use scientific knowledge to solve practical problems. Cheng Hua, principal of the school's primary school, said.
For the students of Shen Fuyucai Experimental School, they can experience the four seasons of farming "immersively" on the edge of the playground without leaving the campus. In order to allow students to take good labor classes, in 2018, the school built a 2,500-square-meter indoor ecological science museum and 180,000 square meters of outdoor natural ecological base and put into use. According to Liu Shuai, director of the school's popular science education base, throughout the year, teachers teach students to cultivate dozens of crops such as rice, sorghum, sweet potato, pumpkin and cabbage, from sowing to autumn harvest. The harvested rice should be baled, threshed and shelled, the cabbage should be dried and washed, and the sauerkraut should be pickled, and the cotton should be seeded and spun; Finally, the finished product of labor can also be developed into cultural and creative product ......The children were busy. Zan Yige, a student in the first class of the fifth year, has taken the popular science base course for two years, and he said that it was actually very hard to plant rice in the spring, but in the autumn, he saw the golden rice all over the ground, not to mention how happy he was!
To carry out the experiment of labor curriculum reform, Shen Fuyucai Experimental School has been exploring for many years. According to the principal Su Zhenmin, on the basis of in-depth study of the teaching content of the national curriculum and local curriculum, the school has successively developed natural ecological education courses, four-season farming courses, wilderness survival courses, Chinese herbal medicine culture courses and labor education courses with the "integration of five educations" as the entry point, etc., organically combining the five aspects of morality, intelligence, physique, beauty and labor, and jointly carrying out activities in the three departments of primary, junior and senior high schools, realizing the hierarchical, systematic and collaborative education of education, in order to comprehensively improve the comprehensive quality of students. Practical ability and innovative thinking to make effective attempts.
