  From September, primary and secondary school students need to learn to cook, causing heated discussions

  Primary and secondary schools set up ten task groups:

  Fifth and sixth graders should learn 2-3 home-cooked dishes

  Starting this fall, the labor class will officially become an independent course in primary and secondary schools.

According to the compulsory education curriculum plan, labor courses are not less than 1 class hour per week on average, which are used for activity planning, skill guidance, practice practice, summary communication, etc.

  The labor course is divided into three types: daily labor, production labor and service labor. There are ten task groups in the content, and each task group consists of several items.

Daily labor includes four task groups: cleaning and sanitation, sorting and storage, cooking and nutrition, and use and maintenance of household appliances.

Production labor includes four task groups: agricultural production labor, traditional craft production, industrial production labor, and new technology experience and application.

Service labor includes two task groups: modern service industry labor, public welfare labor and voluntary service.

  Schools can choose to determine the number of task groups to learn in different school stages based on the actual situation.

  For example, in terms of cooking: in the first school period (grades 1-2), participate in simple home cooking tasks, such as choosing vegetables, washing vegetables, etc.; in the second school period (grades 3-4), learn to make cold dishes and platters, Learn how to steam and cook, such as heating steamed buns, steamed buns, boiled eggs, dumplings, etc.; in the third grade (grades 5-6), make 2-3 home-cooked dishes, such as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, fried eggs, stewed bone soup, etc. , but also can design a nutritious recipe; fourth grade (grades 7-9), can design recipes for three meals a day, independently make 3~4 dishes for lunch or dinner, etc.

  Triggered netizens to "remember the past":

  After graduating from junior high school, I can already cook a table of meals!

  "Labor is too important. What children lack most now is labor. What we lacked most when we were young is labor. We have to clean up from the first grade, and we have to dig Pinellia (Chinese herbal medicine) for the school during the beginning of summer, and start from the third grade. I chop wood for the school once a week, and plant trees, etc. I cook at home, wash clothes, weed, transplant rice, and cut rice. I have to do everything. Although it is very hard, but now that I think about these labors, I have exercised my survival skills and sharpened my skills. I have practiced my will and developed my hard-working quality." Ms. Wang, a parent born in the 1980s, said that when her junior high school graduates came to the house for a party, she could already cook a decent meal.

  The new plan for labor courses has also received support from many netizens.

"This requirement is very reasonable. Students in grades 5 and 6 have the basic ability to take care of themselves or their families, can use most household appliances, can do laundry and mop the floor, cook a few simple dishes, know how to use electricity, water and fire safely, and have life safety. View, it is very necessary." "Good thing, one labor class every week must be attended. Experts say that children who love labor are not easy to be depressed. Love of labor can promote children's gratitude and cherish life"...
