The pottery tomb was built in December 1946, facing Southeast. There are tombstones and memorial archways in front of the tomb. The monument, 2 meters high, is inscribed with Shen Junru's inscription - "the tomb of Mr. Tao Xingzhi" and "the public burial of 53 Chinese people's organizations". The memorial archway, 5 meters high and 4 meters wide, was built in December 1946. Tao Xingzhi's handwriting is engraved on the front of the archway: "love all over the world"; the couplet of the archway column is Tao Xingzhi's posthumous teachings written by Guo Moruo: "thousands of teachings, thousands of teachings, thousands of teachings, thousands of learning, and being a real person."
After liberation, the tomb was renovated and afforested for many times. In 1982, the pottery tomb was listed as a provincial cultural relic protection unit.

educational theorist and reformer
Profile
Tao Xingzhi (1891-1946), formerly known as Wenjun, was born in Shexian County, Anhui Province. He is a famous educator and poet in modern China and the founder of Nanjing Xiaozhuang Normal University. He was the first to pay attention to rural education. In 1927, he founded Nanjing experimental rural normal school and later changed it into Xiaozhuang school. He has edited many books and periodicals, such as "teachers of rural materials" and "series of Xiaozhuang school". He advocates that society is school, life is education, and the integration of teaching and doing. He has visited 28 countries in Europe and America, publicized the idea of resisting Japan and saving the nation, and mobilized overseas Chinese to donate money to prosper the country. In the summer of 1938, he was a member of the first National Political Council. He actively responded to the call of the Communist Party of China for a comprehensive anti Japanese War and established the China Wartime Education Association. In July 1939, an educational school was founded in GUSHENG temple, Hechuan County, near Chongqing, Sichuan Province, which mainly recruited children with difficulties. We can see pictures of Yucai students opening up wasteland for production, and students' troupe's creation of Sichuan drama "Lang Ge ban". In January 1946, Mr. Tao founded a social university in Chongqing and served as its president, which greatly promoted the process of democratic education.

Educational thought
"Hand and brain sing together"
The so-called hand brain mutual growth, that is, hand brain and use, hand brain are strong.
Why did Tao Xingzhi write this song? The long history of old China is: the laborer governs the people, the laborer governs the people, and thus forms the ruling class and the ruled class. In terms of education, it is necessary to cultivate people who use both hands and brain. It is the most fundamental problem to train people with all-round development.
And Yucai School
"If you do something important, do it; if you do it with a heart, don't take half a root of grass." ——Tao Xingzhi
Tao Xingzhi's words are his declaration of devoting his life to human beings and education.
In 1939, Tao Xingzhi founded "Yucai School" in Chongqing. Yucai School is the most successful school founded by Tao Xingzhi. The students are mainly the children in the nursery. They don't charge tuition and living expenses, so it's very difficult to fund them. Someone asked Tao Xingzhi, "why do you cross the river with stones on your back?" Mr. Tao said, "what I carry is not a stone, but a lover.". This is love for students, love for schools, love for education, love for working people, love for the Chinese nation.
Mr. Tao has four words: "love all over the world". We love not only human beings, but also living things. We are against killing living things to make specimens and turning biology into a study of dead things. This is the greatest love in the world. The promotion of such love can teach people not to kill each other any more and to live in harmony with nature.
"Integration of teaching and doing"
The debate failed to pass in two hours at the school affairs meeting of Nanjing Normal University. With the outbreak of the May 4th movement, Mr. Tao published the article "integration of teaching and learning". Influenced by this, the teaching methods in Nanjing universities were changed to teaching methods. Two years later, the theory of teaching and doing was established, and finally determined the integration of teaching and doing, focusing on doing.
The idea of "integration of teaching, learning and doing" is first from teaching, to teaching students, and then to teaching students to learn (more active), to connect with their own knowledge and implement it in practice.
