Features: This book took nearly a year from the initial creative planning to the final revision and publication, during which it received great attention from many leaders and active responses from a broad range of teachers. The authors include both well-known special-grade teachers, subject leaders, principals, and directors, as well as new teachers who have just joined the teaching profession. There is participation from renowned schools, as well as couples from remote mountain villages who are authors. There is self-reflection, as well as mutual evaluation and feedback between mentors and mentees in this school-based research approach. The collision of ideas, the promotion of insights, and the triggering of reflections have organically integrated the concepts of the new curriculum with teachers' behaviors, catering to teachers' development, and thus have been widely welcomed by school leaders and teachers. This book collects 103 cases, including 47 in Chinese language, 35 in mathematics, and 21 in other subjects, with a focus on certain disciplines and drawn from primary school education and teaching. The selected content is not limited to grades undergoing curriculum reform but covers all grades, various textbooks, disciplines, and teaching methods, striving to achieve the new curriculum reform concept of integrating subjects, reflecting comprehensiveness, integrating textbooks, reflecting curriculum standards, and focusing on the process while discussing outcomes. This is also the primary reason why the book is titled "From Concept to Action—Essential Cases of New Curriculum Reform (Primary School Volume)."
