There is still nearly a month to go before the start of spring ploughing, and during this time, several of Liu Renyu's right-hand men are on vacation, and there is no war at the moment, so the army training can be temporarily relaxed, only the two projects of Jingbianbao Dongcheng and Liujiabao are still in full swing, and they are all in charge of Zhao Lao Dad and Ma Tianjun.

In this way, Liu Renyu has a rare ten days of leisure time.

With this leisure time, Liu Renyu is not only working with Sun Yuyun every night to complete the great cause of making people together, but also preparing for another thing, which is education reform.

Liu Renyu has long thought that in the primary schools in Beibao and Jingbianbao in the current town, there are only two courses: scripture and physical education, which is not scientific, and he wants to open several new courses such as Chinese, arithmetic, physical education, music, art, and civilized etiquette.

In order to solve this problem, Liu Renyu decided to think about how to compile teaching materials and train instructors.

It is said that before Liu Renyu crossed over, he was a scholar in a poor area, that is, a top student who was one of the oldest in every exam.

At that time, his homeroom teacher once said that it was not a problem for Liu Renyu to be admitted to a key university.

Liu Renyu himself also wants to finish high school, take the college entrance examination, make a final decision, and get admitted to college, so that the carp will jump the dragon gate and live a good life.

However, the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, Liu Renyu's home in the later generations is located in a poor mountainous area, the poor one is called the four walls, and the tuition required for college is tantamount to an astronomical amount for this family.

Liu Renyu knew that his family was in difficulty, so he had already made up his mind that after finishing high school, he would not go to college and go directly to find an errand.

After all the courses in the second year of high school, before going to the third year of high school, it happened that the local People's Armed Forces Department came to recruit soldiers, and Liu Renyu happened to be a military fan, so he wanted to sign up for the army.

At that time, the head teacher of the class persuaded Liu Renyu to go to a good university and have a future, so Liu Renyu must think twice.

But Liu Renyu considered that his family was very difficult, even if he was admitted to university, he might not have the money to study, so even if he really wanted to study in the ivory tower, but considering the actual situation at home, he had to tearfully decide to give up the opportunity to take the college entrance examination and enter the army as a PLA soldier.

In this way, because when Liu Renyu was a student, he studied science and excelled in all his homework, so for Liu Renyu, it was not a problem to cope with a primary school textbook.

Having made up his mind, he said he would do it.

In the course of Chinese, Liu Renyu plans to introduce pinyin into the teaching of Chinese, and he first has to find the students who are currently teaching in the school to train, teach them well, and then let these teachers teach students.

In the subject of arithmetic, Liu Renyu plans to introduce Arabic numerals, and in primary school, he only learns the method of addition and subtraction multiplier, and at most adds a multiplication formula.

After this arithmetic textbook was compiled, Liu Renyu planned to find some bookkeepers to train, and when they were trained, they would let them teach the students.

Physical education, naturally, focuses on basic military training programs, which are taught by veterans, and the physical education instructors of the training programs are naturally very clear, but because the training objects are students, they naturally need to make some improvements.

First of all, the amount of training and training intensity should not be too large, and the amount of training for boys and girls should not be the same.

Generally speaking, boys train more than girls.

Music, this invites the troupe to be a teacher, teach the students to sing, dance, learn musical instruments, if there are a few students with high talent, and then select them for further study.

For music, although Liu Renyu himself was a wheat bully in later generations, he didn't know much about music, so he could only let the teachers play freely.

The situation is similar in art, Liu Renyu has no attainments in art, and he is not even qualified to guide, so he plans to let the instructors play freely.

As for civilized etiquette, Liu Renyu feels that he can give full play to it.

In other words, the Chinese nation is known as the country of etiquette, and this is basically an ironic joke in later generations, and Liu Renyu often saw reports that some Chinese went to developed countries in Europe and the United States, and people had a lot of money and poor quality.

So the question is, why did some people in later generations have better economic conditions, but civilized etiquette has regressed?

Of course, education has not kept up.

Therefore, Liu Renyu plans to let children receive a comprehensive education of civilized etiquette from the beginning of the enlightenment stage, so that they can become a literate person when they grow up.

As for what aspects of civilized etiquette are included, Liu Renyu plans to start with the most basic meeting ceremony.

Liu Renyu believes that the mode of kneeling on the knee is somewhat destructive, and in his vision, all people should be equal, and should not practice such a distinction between hierarchies and privileges.

However, it is not realistic to abolish this etiquette altogether at this time, so Liu Renyu intends to use a dual-track system, in which students bow when they meet teachers, principals, elders, and other officials within his control.

The angle of this bow is 75 degrees, that is, it is only a slight bow, which is very different from the 90 degrees of the Japanese people.

Of course, if foreign officials come to Jingbian Fort, the students still have to kneel and salute.

In addition to the salute, there are some basic qualities that must be taught in civilized etiquette classes, such as obeying laws and regulations, and standing in line no matter what you do, if there are more than one person involved; When walking on the road, do not line up multiple people and occupy road space; Go up and down the stairs, leaving the right-hand side for others to pass through in an emergency; Don't litter, keep your lips closed when chewing food, don't make a sound, etc., etc.

In this way, after some thinking, Liu Renyu made his own car behind closed doors and came up with primary school Chinese teaching materials, arithmetic teaching materials, and civilized etiquette teaching materials.

As for the curriculum of the primary school, Liu Renyu intends to set it up like this, the primary school is divided into 6 grades, and the corresponding students are from 6 years old to 12 years old.

From Year 1 to Year 6, daily classes are 4 lessons in the morning and 2 lessons in the afternoon of 40 minutes each.

In the setting of the curriculum, the first grade, Chinese, arithmetic, physical education, music, art, civilized etiquette, every day is one class.

In the first grade, students who enter the school must learn pinyin, numeracy, and basic etiquette; 2nd grade, literacy, learning addition and subtraction; In the third grade, students learn texts and learn multiplication and division; From the fourth grade to the sixth grade, students read and hyphenate words, try to write a diary and short essays, and do some simple math problems.

Chinese and arithmetic are configured in this way, while sports, music, and art are all taught freely by teachers, and they can teach how they want.

After primary school, students will enter the national middle school to continue their education, at that time, the curriculum will be more complicated, the subjects will be more, in terms of Chinese, you can teach some Confucian classics, so that students can understand reason, arithmetic, you can start to learn geometry, plane geometry, solid geometry, algebra.

Mathematics textbooks do not need to be compiled by Liu Renyu himself, just need to find the corresponding books from overseas and translate them.

In terms of physics, Liu Renyu can only write part of the knowledge of mechanics, heat, optics, electricity, and acoustics according to his own memory, so that students can learn first.

Chemistry, to put forward the concept of the periodic table, of course, Liu Renyu only remembers the first 20 elements of the periodic table, but this is enough, a brief introduction to the material world, the composition of air, chemical reactions and other knowledge, enough for this era.

The knowledge to be learned in junior high school is a little more complicated, and it takes a long time to compile physics and chemistry textbooks, and Liu Renyu still needs to think about this textbook before he can compile it, which really takes a little time, but fortunately, it takes a long time to compile physics and chemistry textbooks just for elementary school education and night school education, and the matter of compiling physics and chemistry textbooks can be done slowly.

Therefore, Liu Renyu believes that the textbooks of physics and chemistry should be edited slowly when there is time, and the basic education of primary schools should be done well at present.
