Zhou Li is one of the Confucian classics, which contains rich contents of ancient official system and political system, and also involves some educational records. In Zhou Li, foster care education is regarded as an important stage in the process of children's growth, and the education children receive at this stage is called "foster care education". Education at this stage mainly focuses on children's all-round physical, intellectual and moral development, laying a solid foundation for their future growth.
As far as the content of education is concerned, Zhou Li recorded six kinds of arts: ceremony, music, shooting, bending, calligraphy and figures. These contents aim at cultivating children's comprehensive ability and quality, paying attention to both knowledge learning and moral and physical training. Rites and music are subjects to cultivate children's etiquette and aesthetic ability, archery and defense are subjects to exercise physical coordination and practical operation ability, and books and numbers are subjects to cultivate children's basic knowledge and thinking ability.
Zhou Li also stipulates that an educated teacher must have certain conditions, including moral quality, cultural accomplishment and educational experience.
Cultivate the advantages of education:
1. Pay attention to children's early development: Foster care education thinks that children's early development is very important, so it emphasizes providing good education and environment when children are young to promote their all-round development and growth.
2. Pay attention to all-round quality training: Educated education not only pays attention to children's knowledge learning, but also pays attention to cultivating children's qualities in morality, art and sports. This comprehensive education method is helpful to cultivate children's all-round development.
3. Promote children's active exploration: Encourage educated children to actively explore, discover, understand the world and solve problems through practice and personal experience. This kind of education can stimulate children's interest and curiosity and promote their independent thinking and creativity.
4. Emphasize emotional education and humanistic care: foster care education pays attention to emotional education and humanistic care, and pays attention to children's emotional needs and mental health. This kind of education helps to cultivate children's positive attitude and good emotional quality.
