As the saying goes: "Thought determines behavior; Behavior determines habits. " In order to let students consciously take part in labor and develop working habits, we must first cultivate students' labor consciousness. In school, teachers can make students understand what labor is and why they should work in many ways.

For example, combined with the "May 1" Labor Day, a theme class meeting was held to understand the origin and significance of Labor Day; Learn and carry forward the spirit of model workers by watching the National Model Workers Commendation Conference.

With the continuous improvement of labor consciousness, students will have a deeper understanding of "the most glorious, sublime, greatest and most beautiful labor" and lay a solid foundation for students to actively participate in labor education.

The formation of habits requires long-term effective practice to form stable behavior. To train students to learn to work, love work and form working habits, we must give them opportunities to participate in practical activities.

The most basic labor practice in school is the daily cleaning and weekly cleaning in school. Students take part in voluntary labor at school, not only learn to work, but also enhance their sense of ownership, so they are more willing to take part in labor. Our school also contracts a green plant management area or planting practice base according to the characteristics of students of all grades.

Students first learn how to plant and manage through teacher's explanation, asking parents or collecting information online, and then carry out a series of planting tasks such as digging, selecting vegetable seeds, planting, watering and self-made enzyme fertilization. In addition, our school has also carried out relevant practical activities in combination with the characteristics that Gaopi Town is the hometown of "blue and white porcelain".

For example, organize students to visit and study in ceramic factories, offer ceramic classes, hold ceramic making and painting competitions, etc. Mr. Tao Xingzhi, an educator in China, advocates that whether you acquire knowledge or create, the premise must be action, and you must "do" or practice.

All kinds of labor practices carried out by the school not only enable students to engage in labor and gain knowledge in labor, but also reuse and re-create the knowledge learned from labor. In short, in these practical activities, students have developed work habits, and at the same time, their hands-on ability, organizational ability and innovation ability have also been improved.

According to Maslow's demand theory, the effective use of incentive means can stimulate students' potential enthusiasm and make students' motivation to make progress in memory active. In order to consolidate the effect of labor education and achieve greater labor gains, we should evaluate and feedback the students' labor in time.

For example, students who have performed well in the process of labor practice are given certain spiritual or material rewards to stimulate their interest and self-motivation, and the strength of model workers or model workers can also be selected by examples to promote students to form labor habits more actively and effectively and improve their labor skills.
