Preface
Winter and summer vacations must be very much looked forward to by students, and there can be a few months of super long vacations for children to relax and unwind.
And in ancient times, it was also necessary to go to school, so in ancient times, did those students have holidays such as winter and summer vacations?
In addition to winter and summer vacations, even our usual holidays are Saturdays and Sundays.
What time did the ancients have holidays according to, and did they also have Saturdays and Sundays?
Ancient holiday arrangements
Much of the current education system, as well as the idea of learning, is closely related to the culture that has been passed down from ancient times.
From the royal family inviting private teachers to teach the princes and princes, to private school colleges, these are all the things that have developed step by step in the development of education and culture.
Education today is completely different from the ancients, and what they learn is different for people in each period.
Naturally, there are holidays, which is the importance of children's education in the antenna court, and there is such a record in the mainland's historical document "Han Law" that "students have a rest on five days".
It's the same as our Saturday and Sunday day off, which is one day off through the last five days.
Holidays must be there, and now children are most looking forward to going to school on holidays, to be able to have their own free time to rest, and to be able to do what they like.
But there was no such thing as homework a long time ago, and now homework is really driving students crazy.
What is the purpose of the holiday is to allow students to relax and relax, to eliminate the fatigue of a week of studying, and to be able to come to class with a new mental outlook after a day of rest.
But now there is a lot of homework since elementary school, not on Saturdays and Sundays, but after school every day, and children often have to write until eleven or twelve o'clock before they can lie in bed and rest.
Can this kind of learning time really improve children's learning efficiency?
Will such a large amount of homework have the opposite effect, causing children to become more and more disgusted with learning, more and more impatient with learning, and tired of learning?
And holidays, of course, also existed in ancient times, but they must be only more than us, not less than us, because ancient times attached great importance to each festival.
Students will definitely be given different lengths of vacation, unlike now, if the school doesn't want you to rest, you can't rest, and if you are asked to take a few days off, you will take a few days off, and even the winter and summer vacations will be occupied.
Is it really necessary for cultural development to force students to go to school, which is obtained by squeezing students' free time?
In ancient times, in addition to what we knew about the Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Qingming Festival, Chongyang Festival, Lantern Festival and other festivals would allow students to rest for one to three days.
There is also the day of the emperor's birthday, the birthday of the Buddha, the birthday of Confucius and Lao Tzu, and the students will be given a holiday, which is very humane.
In addition to these holidays, there must be cold and summer vacations, and we basically have a fixed time for winter and summer vacations.
Students who go to school outside the city can also take advantage of the months of vacation to go home.
In ancient times, summer vacation was not called summer vacation but field vacation, and the time of this field vacation was that every time the grain was harvested, students would carry their bags and rush home.
This is because the wheat and grain at home are about to be harvested, and he has to go home to help cut the wheat.
Therefore, the summer vacation in ancient times was the summer vacation when the wheat harvest was abundant.
At that time, the summer vacation was not long, and now our summer vacation is basically in mid-June, until the beginning of school in September.
However, in ancient times, there was only one month of vacation during the summer vacation, which means that after the holiday, students would carry their bags and rush home.
Those who are close to home can walk for a few days, but those who are far away from home can walk for many days, and they have to continue to leave for school before they get home and have not rested.
They are working so hard in order to be able to be named on the gold list one day, and the future development of the champion is limitless.
The difference with modern times is that today's students are more than one volume, and in the early years of high school, they were considered learned people, but now they still grasp a lot of undergraduates.
Students have to work hard to climb up, and only then will they have the opportunity to return home.
So in today's society, if you don't use your brain to study, you have to bring yourself a good life through physical strength.
In ancient times, there was a field vacation instead of summer vacation, was there no winter vacation in ancient times, of course there was a winter vacation, that is, the period from the first month of the lunar month to the fifteenth day of the first month, which belonged to the annual vacation of students, which was the so-called winter vacation.
In ancient times, if you want to go home to rest except for holidays, you have to ask the teacher for leave, and the number of days you can rest depends on the size of the matter and the time that the teacher gives you approval.
These are very similar to the current relevant systems, they are all required to ask the teacher for instructions before they can rest, this is the rule, after all, there are no rules.
Education has been improving since ancient times, and it has been constantly improving, and now our education system still has big loopholes, and it does not allow children to learn what teachers teach in a healthy and happy environment.
How many students have felt anxious because of their studies, and how many students will have psychological changes because of poor learning.
Learning now doesn't seem to be as simple and happy as it used to be, and learning now is completely about letting those who love to learn and not love learning have to go through this process.
What is taught in schools is dead knowledge in textbooks, and they don't teach how to be a person, and how many college students will be called nerds when they come out, they are rigid and don't know how to be flexible, and they don't know what human feelings are.
And the most important thing to do after coming out of school is to learn to be a person, as if this is completely different from what is taught in school, and what we learn in school, in the end, it seems that only the graduation certificate is the most useful.
Nowadays, education is constantly improving, in order to be able to do better and better, and now I can clearly see that I attach great importance to the development of education.
Now the pressure on students is increasing, not that parents spend less time with their children, but that children spend less and less time with their parents.
In addition to school, it is a cram school, and in addition to cram school, it is an interest class, which seems to be developing their children in an all-round way and planning for their children's future life.
But there is the joy of childhood, the joy of adolescence, and the happiness of middle age, which cannot be learned in school.
Therefore, education needs to be improved, students still need to work hard, and parents need to provide more relationships and be listeners rather than conductors for their children.
