In China，lots of children often spend much of their time on their lessons，and don't help with housework at home.Some students don't think they need to do housework.Some parents don't let them do it.So many students don't have basic skills（基本技能）.
    Luckily，things are changjye.aig.In 2021，many school s began to teach students life skills.
    Guangming Middle School in Sichuan built some farming clubs.There students learned to grow vegetables. "At first I thought I could only grow some vegetables here，but in fact，I learned a lot about vegetables，"said Chen Jia，a girl at the school.
    In Hope Middle School，students have a special life skill class：They learn to make dumplings in different kinds of shapes（形状）. "I couldn't make dumplings before，but now I am good at doing it.I really love my life skill class.It's my favourite class，" said Zhang Yan，a boy at the school.
