Appreciation: The contents of The Amethyst are arranged in an orderly way, which reflects the author's educational thoughts. The author believes that the education of children should focus on etiquette and filial piety, correct children's thoughts, and impart knowledge second, that is, "filial piety comes first, knowledge comes second." To cultivate children, we should start from primary school, that is, first read books, and then read two kinds of classics: classics and books.
After reading the classics, study the history books. The book says, "Classics are all about reading history". Finally, the three-character classic emphasizes the attitude and purpose of learning. It can be said that The Amethyst is not only a textbook for children's literacy, but also an enlightening book by the author, so we should pay attention to it when reading it. Saint Amethyst is a book with many allusions and strong knowledge. It was written under the guidance of Confucianism and full of positive spirit.
