On Day 1, they picked apples in an orchard (果园), learning to gently twist each fruit to avoid bruising. "The baskets grew heavy, but so did my happiness," Xiaoyu wrote in her journal. Day 2 brought vegetable planting. Guided by farmers, students dug neat rows, buried carrot seeds, and watered them using bamboo ladles. "I never knew soil had different layers!" exclaimed Xiaoyu, recalling her biology teacher’s explanation about nutrients. The highlight was Day 3: milking cows and feeding goats. Though nervous at first, Xiaoyu laughed when a baby goat nibbled her sleeve. "Labor isn’t just about sweat—it’s teamwork and care," she realized.

Let me introduce something about it. We usually have the Labor Education class every Friday in the classroom. During the class, the teachers mainly teach us some basic skills, such as learning a traditional handicraft, how to cook a dish, growing vegetables, experiencing volunteer work and so on. Our aim is to experience traditional Chinese culture and learn life skills. I think it is very meaningful. We can’t depend on our parents all the time. We must master some basic skills in order to reduce parents’ burden and develop a sense of responsibility. Do you also have similar courses? Looking forward to hearing from you. I truly hope my letter will help you know more about Labor Education in our school. Yours, Li Hua 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
