Labor(劳动)education has been made a part of compulsory(义务的)education. Students will have at least one course every week on basic household(家庭的)skills such as cleaning and cooking. Should cooking be taught at schools? How can labor education continue after school? The topic catches wide social attention and causes heated public discussions.
We spend most of the time studying and have little time to develop our interests. A household skill class can give us chances to experience more aspects of life and help us discover different interests. I hope we could be given the choices to take whatever courses we like. |
Schools should have cooking classes. Children will be taught about their food and how to cook properly. Many parents don't have the professional knowledge and have no time to do this. A household class would provide the knowledge and training that parents are unable to give their children. |
By learning basic skills like cooking and cleaning, children can learn how to take care of themselves and live independently. Parents won't always help their children with every problem they'll meet in their life. (B)They need to learn new things, solve problems and grow from their experiences. It is necessary for children to know how to master these important lifesaving skills as early as possible. |
I learned some basic cooking skills from my mother. But most of them were learned after I graduated from university, from books and online short videos. Household skills like cooking are very useful in our daily life. I hope these cooking classes will really make the students realize that labor is important and valuable. |
The idea of labor education is heatedly and widely accepted by teachers, students and parents. Labor education not only teaches the students to lifesaving skills, but also educates them about the realize the and of labor.
