China’s splendid culture of 5000 years, with a long history and endless growth, is the only culture without faults among the four civilizations. Why? The power of words. From “Cangjie’s creation of characters” to the Millennium evolution of the seven forms of Chinese characters, it describes the progress and development of the Chinese nation; Qin Shihuang’s “cars on the same track and books on the same text” reveals the importance of norms for the unity and development of a nation.
The ancients often wrote letters saying that “words are like faces” and “words are like people”. It can be seen that writing good words can leave a good impression. The ancient masters, such as “Su Huang Mi Cai” in the Song Dynasty, not only wrote well, but also had better conduct, so they remained famous in history! Since ancient times, the combination of virtue and art has always been an example that everyone pursues.
In Hangzhou Chunya experimental school, landscape places with calligraphy as the theme can be seen everywhere, which makes students soak in the fragrance of calligraphy. The school attaches great importance to writing guidance, advocates writing standard characters, and takes “writing every stroke and taking every step” as the educational goal. The characteristic course of “Chunya calligraphy garden” carries out the universal teaching of the combination of soft and hard pens for the whole learning period. The interdisciplinary integration of “intelligence +” and “philosophy +” gives new vitality to the study of traditional calligraphy. Outside the classroom and on the corridor, works are displayed, teachers and students evaluate each other, calligraphy fragrance and self-cultivation. Students, let’s write standard characters together, build virtue with books, promote books with virtue, and inherit Chinese culture!
