  The young is strong and the country is strong.

  General Secretary Xi Jinping is always concerned about the healthy growth of children. On the occasion of this year's International Children's Day, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that party committees and governments at all levels and the whole society should care for and care for children and create favorable conditions for children to thrive.

  Xinhua News Agency reporters found in recent interviews that the conditions for strengthening physical fitness in primary and secondary schools in some areas are getting better and better, educational resources in poor areas are becoming more abundant, and opportunities for youth quality improvement and scientific enlightenment are increasing. To create conditions to protect children and children to thrive, the whole society has taken action.

"Lang Langshusheng, don't miss a child"

  On the afternoon of May 28, Zhang Lele, a junior high school student who completed the physical education exam for the middle school entrance examination on the pale red plastic runway of Haoping Town Junior High School, Ziyang County, Ankang City, Shaanxi Province, turned flush. "It only took 9 seconds to run at 50 meters, not too reconciled!"

  Ziyang County, Ankang City is surrounded by mountains. It is located in the hinterland of Qinba Mountains and is one of the most impoverished areas in Shaanxi Province. Haoping Town Junior High School surrounded by mountains is the only junior high school in the town, with students from more than 20 villages in 5 surrounding towns. A few years ago, many children here had never seen a plastic runway.

  "In the early years, the school was a bungalow, and later the teaching building, the experimental building, and the cement playground were built." Yu Jianan, the school principal said. In recent years, not only new multimedia teaching equipment has been added, but also plastic tracks, basketball courts, and ping pong tables on campus. They have witnessed the sweat and laughter of children.

  Looking at the children running and jumping happily on the playground, the old teacher of the school recalled that many years ago, every school season, there were students who were out of school because of poverty. Teachers had to come home to persuade them to return. Sometimes they had to find a way to solve the cost of living for the students.

  Now, of the 993 students in the whole school, 352 poor students who have filed for registration are free of charge for school, and can also enjoy nutritious meal subsidies and living allowances for poor students. Not only will there be no children who drop out of school due to poverty, and children who cannot come to school due to physical or other reasons, they will also receive "home education".

  Feifei's home is 3 kilometers away from Haoping Town Junior High School. In the early summer, through the window screen, Wang Xiantao, vice principal of Haoping Town Junior High School, held Fei Fei's hand and wrote the following words on a small blackboard on the balcony: "China Come on".

  Because of mental retardation, the 15-year-old's non-non-intelligent level is only equivalent to that of children aged 5 or 6 years old, and is smaller than his peers. I barely finished elementary school three years ago, so I had to say goodbye to normal campus life. Since then, Haoping Town Junior High School has arranged 4 teachers for non-non-writing, drawing, music and other courses, and will send them to the door twice a month. When the child is in good condition, the teacher will also take him to school and take physical education class with his classmates.

  "You must love singing and writing. As long as the children have a little progress and growth, even if they only appreciate the love, it makes sense to send them to the door." Wang Xiantao said, "Lang Langshusheng, don't miss a child."

  Allowing children in poor areas to receive a good education is the concern of governments at all levels. According to data provided by the Ministry of Education, from 2014 to 2018, the central government has allocated a certain amount of incremental funds for the construction of weak schools every year, with a total investment of 169.9 billion yuan, driving local investment of 445.7 billion yuan, and the basic teaching conditions of schools in poor areas have continued to improve.

"Those little hearts have the determination to work for the motherland"

  "Viruses are so hateful! I will use paintbrushes to fight them!" Zhang Gehan, a third-grade G student in Jiefang Road Primary School, Chaoyang District, Changchun City, particularly likes painting. This time, the topic left by the art teacher is "Fighting against the epidemic". Zhang Gehan thought of his uncle and aunt who were fighting hard to fight the epidemic. "Draw them down and salute them!"

  Demagnification Road Primary School is a special school of aesthetic education in primary and secondary schools in Jilin Province, and the aesthetic education curriculum did not stop during the epidemic. The "Cloud Classroom" of art has designed themed activities such as "artistic epidemic" and "harmonious nature". Teachers have produced a wealth of "art materials", including work appreciation, video micro-classes, creative homework, etc., and students have completed their own studies. Works, upload assignments on WeChat group, and teachers give comments and guidance.

  "Art education can bring unique observation and thinking to children, and teach them to meet difficulties and challenges with a positive attitude in special periods. From their works, they can feel that those little hearts have the determination to work for the motherland." Art teacher Gao Yang said.

  "To the most beautiful retrogrades: There are no gods in this world, but you are the heroes who guard this world." "Because of your hard work, we have our lives safe." On the graph paper, the children's black pens are clear and powerful . Combining current affairs and calligraphy, Jiefang Road Primary School has also developed a series of calligraphy micro-classes "Daily Practice of Ancient Poems" and "Salute to the Most Beautiful Retrogrades" for students to imitate and practice.

  Courses related to "beauty" have always been very popular with children. Demagnification Road Primary School has used after-school time to set up more than 40 club activities, including French, Spanish and other small language courses, so that students can appreciate the beauty of language; dance, African drums, Chinese painting and other courses, let students get in touch with artistic beauty; Rubik's cube, technological creation Let students experience the creation of beauty ... Now, the participation rate of children after-school activities reaches 100%, and the "thirty-thirty half problem" that troubles parents is gradually solved.

  How to make the "five educations" of Germany, Chile, the United States, and the United States work in a more balanced and coordinated manner? The 2020 National Education Work Conference proposed that we should focus on the weaknesses of shortcomings, promote the integration of education and sports, draw out the hard bars of aesthetic education, and build a chain of labor education responsibility. In particular, it pointed out that the school's aesthetic education work should be included in the supervision, evaluation and assessment system, so that "soft tasks" become "hard indicators".

"Explore the unknown, they have too many whimsical ideas"

  "Design a structure that bears as much weight as possible using wood up to 18 grams" "Make a mechanical device to make fishing easier" "Orchestrate a play to show the survival status of endangered animals" ... in Huangpu District, Shanghai Cao Guangbiao Elementary School, the Mind Olympic Project is a new carrier of quality education.

  Cao Guangbiao principal Lu Yu introduced that mind Olympics is a creative thinking activity that emphasizes the combination of brain and hands. Teachers will put forward some topics similar to "building a straw bridge that can bear weight" and "building a table tennis tower". There are no standard answers to the questions, and the teacher ’s method may be “the most correct”, but children need to integrate their ideas and knowledge skills to cultivate innovative thinking that is difficult to question and innovative spirit to explore boldly.

  Cao Guangbiao Primary School's head Olympic team members Huang Xizai, Shao Kunyao and others have cooperated in disassembling and assembling toy cars to reorganize their superior functions. The reorganized car can move forward and backward, and it will automatically brake and give an alarm when there is a danger. The vehicle also has two sets of wheels. "The future traffic tracks are three-dimensionally staggered. The cars can be driven not only on the ground, but also upside down in the air." Huang Xizai carefully explained his understanding and creativity.

  In addition to the mind Olympics enlightenment class, Cao Guangbiao Elementary School also tried to provide more complicated computer programming classes for higher grade students. Children can use the computer to design their own games. For example, when designing a game for finding a hole through a mouse, children need to select "characters" such as a mouse and a hole in the material library of the software, draw obstacles and routes with a paintbrush, and use the "up, down, left, and right" keys of the computer keyboard to control the mouse to find the hole to win Game process.

  Characteristic education, scientific enlightenment, interactive courses ... More and more new explorations focusing on the cultivation of children's qualities are becoming popular everywhere.

  In 2017, the "Compulsory Education Elementary School Science Curriculum Standards" issued by the Ministry of Education positioned elementary school science courses as a basic course, and the starting grade of science courses was advanced to the first grade of elementary school. In the middle and primary schools of various places during the holiday due to the impact of the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, many school science courses and life education courses have also appeared on the "cloud schedule".

  Experts say that new education methods are sometimes not so "rule-based." Children have their own talents, and give them one more encouragement, they can have more enthusiasm for exploring the unknown world. "Science education in adolescence is about cultivating interest and exploring children's innovative potential. Exploring the unknown, they have too many whimsical ideas." Lu Yu said.
