Visiting the ethnic cultural spaces of schools in the commune, we observed that traditional items such as clothing, musical instruments, folk games, tools for labor and production, paintings, and photographs were arranged appropriately for students to easily observe. Some schools even built small models depicting the daily life of ethnic groups, thereby helping students better understand their own ethnic traditions.
Teachers at Lang Mo Kindergarten (Tua Sin Chai commune) educate children about traditional culture.
Today, many customs and traditions are gradually fading away; therefore, integrating traditional culture into school education is essential. To effectively achieve this, the commune directs schools to incorporate traditional education into various subjects; increase extracurricular hours exploring cultural identity; include folk games and ethnic sports in daily recreational and physical activities; and maintain school performing arts groups. Simultaneously, they invest in and build cultural spaces for ethnic groups, collect artifacts for display, and create murals with cultural themes in easily visible locations... all contributing to educating children to remember their roots.
The most noticeable aspect is that twice a week, students wear traditional costumes; they practice singing and dancing folk songs and dances during their mid-morning physical education class. During lessons in geography, literature, history, and civics, teachers use many practical examples related to culture to stimulate students' curiosity and understanding. In particular, teachers also educate students about ethnic culture through projections and televisions showing films and images of ethnic cultures, thereby contributing to raising students' awareness.

Vang Thi Chi (9B class, Lang Mo Ethnic Boarding Junior High School) said: "Every day I come to school, I am very happy because I not only learn a lot of knowledge, but I also learn and understand more about the beauty of my ethnic group. At school, we communicate in our local dialect, wear traditional clothes; participate in performing arts, and play folk games. As a young generation, I will preserve and promote the cultural identity of my ethnic group."
Besides integrating it into regular lessons, schools frequently organize extracurricular activities, taking students to villages and participating in experiential activities such as learning to make ethnic dishes and traditional crafts. In addition, they regularly organize cultural and sports activities, contributing to the cohesion among ethnic groups within the school.
Lang Mo Ethnic Boarding Junior High School organized a tug-of-war game for its students during a physical education class.
Mr. Vu Thanh Cong, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Tua Sin Chai commune, said: In the coming time, the commune will continue to implement comprehensive solutions to maintain traditional culture in schools. This includes focusing on commending and replicating good and meaningful practices in preserving and promoting traditional culture.
