Features: This series of calligraphy practice books integrates "reading," "writing," "learning," and "playing" to inherit and promote China's excellent historical and cultural heritage. It selects 140 classical poems designated by the Ministry of Education's "New Curriculum Standards" as mandatory learning content for primary and secondary school students. In line with the Ministry of Education's "Calligraphy Teaching Outline," which emphasizes the importance of calligraphy instruction and the gradual progression of learning, this series of practice books:
- Designates the primary school section for regular script practice,
- And the secondary school section for running script practice.
Primary and secondary school students can enhance their memory of classical Chinese poetry and literature through writing while reading, achieving the goal of "practicing calligraphy, reading along, learning poetry through practice, and mastering both calligraphy and poetry."
To facilitate student reading, the classical poems are arranged by grade level. To aid comprehension, the entire book includes introductions and annotations. To spark students' interest in traditional culture, each practice book comes with a set of cartoon stickers. To prevent vision deterioration in adolescents, the best eye-protective colors are used in the printing process.
To enhance students' artistic appreciation, the covers and back covers of the practice books feature the famous ancient Chinese painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival." Connecting the covers and back covers of the eight books forms a complete "Along the River During the Qingming Festival."
Primary and secondary school students are in their growth and development stage. In designing the covers of this series of practice books, the following principles were followed:
- The covers for lower primary grades feature bright colors to appear lively,
- The covers for upper primary grades feature calm colors to appear fresh,
- The covers for middle school students feature light colors to appear elegant. These practice books are arranged in a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing manner, giving them a high-end look.
