Characteristics of Ancient Chinese Teaching in China Ancient education in China can be divided into three historical stages, namely primitive social education, slave social education and feudal social education. In the three stages of education, especially the feudal education stage, Chinese teaching obviously shows the following three characteristics. 1. Chinese teaching is integrated with literature, history and philosophy education. There was no independent Chinese subject in ancient China, but Chinese education was integrated with politics, economy, history, philosophy, ethics and natural science. The productivity level of primitive society is low, and the social production and lifestyle are very simple. In this case, it is impossible to have Chinese teaching in a strict sense if the primitive social education stage is not divorced from social production, labor and life. But in primitive society, the content of Chinese teaching already existed. There are many contents of Chinese teaching in primitive religious sacrifice, primitive art, primitive notes and ethical education. Ancient myths and stories created orally by primitive people in production, labor and life, such as Jingwei filling the sea, the goddess mending the sky, Houyi shooting at the sun, etc. , has always been the traditional teaching content of Chinese teaching in China. The productivity level of slave society was further improved and appeared.

In order to separate manual labor from mental labor, education is also separated from social productive labor and life. The school education in China slave society takes six arts (etiquette, music, archery, imperial examination, calligraphy and mathematics) as its basic educational content. Among them, "ceremony", "music" and "book" contain quite a lot of Chinese teaching contents. The rulers of feudal society not only practiced autocracy in politics, but also practiced autocracy in culture, which was manifested in the following aspects: the teaching content was mainly Confucian classics. And a large number of Chinese teaching contents are also integrated into Confucian classic education. 2. Compared with Chinese teaching in primitive society and slave society, literacy is the first step, and then reading classics.
