Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history? Many people would think of Confucius (孔 子) , whose birthday was on September 28 th. Although he lived over 2 , 0 0 0 years ago, people still remember and respect him.

Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which lies in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn't give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.

Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time, only children from noble (贵族的) families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3 , 000 students in his lifetime.

Today, people still follow Confucius ' lessons. He told us that each person has something worthy to learn and teach. "When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them. I take their bad qualities and change them in myself. "

He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. "All study but no thinking makes people puzzled. All thinking but no study makes people lazy. "

孔夫子不仅是一个伟大的老师，也是一个对世界和社会有明智想法的思想家 。His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. "A kind person should care for others. Be strict with yourself, but be kind to others. "

Sun Jiarui, a 10-year-old girl from Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, recently has become famous online for her cooking skills. Sun has learnt to cook from her father for two years and now she can cook more than 50 dishes. Can you cook? If so, what dishes are you good at?

For middle and primary school students, being able to cook has become a must. A new curriculum(课程) standard for labor(劳动) education has come out. Starting from 2022 fall term, students are required to take courses on labor skills. The standard includes different labor tasks. The first is daily housework, including cleaning, organizing, cooking, and repairing home appliances. The next is productive(生产的) labor, such as doing farm work, making traditional handicrafts(手工艺品), and using new technologies like 3D printing. One more type is community work. 

Labor education aims to develop students' basic life skills and good working habits. School education didn't value(重视) it in the past. According to a report in 2019, it takes Chinese kids only 12 minutes a day to do housework, compared to 72 minutes for American students each day and 30 minutes for French students. 

Liu Fang, a mother of 6-year-old twins in Beijing, is a strong supporter of labor education. In the past year, she has trained her daughters to do housework. "By doing housework, their hand-eye coordination(协调), time management and organization skills can be trained and it's also good to help them relax, " said Liu. Through such education, her daughters have found fun in doing housework and are more independent. 

What does a lifelong learner look like?

Lifelong learners never think of themselves as the greatest experts(专家)in anything. They continue to learn and bring a great deal to the groups they belong to. What does a lifelong learner look like? Here are some of their main characteristics(特征).

They are knowledge seekers. They are always searching for much information on a topic they're interested in and looking for new experience or opportunities to improve their knowledge or skills.

They are social and self-directed learners. They like taking different courses and taking part in discussions around subjects they are interested in. ____ They also know their own learning styles, and their strengths and weaknesses. They can plan and organize their own learning.

They are critical(批判性的)thinkers. They always use a lot of ways to analyze(分析)and synthesize(合成)information. From their research they judge the information to see if it is useful for the question at hand.

They are problem solvers. They will meet different problems while learning. However, they usually see problems as challenges and life experiences and try to stand above them.
