The compilation of teaching materials must follow the requirements of the syllabus, starting from the particularity of the music subject, and integrating both material resources and practical resources into special supplementary teaching materials.
The development of teaching materials is a continuous and effective process from the initial identification of writers, research on the writing framework, determination of writing content, modification and improvement to later review, publication, experimentation, feedback, then modification and improvement, and promotion and use.

Schools that have implemented ethnic music in the classroom have good principals who basically attach great importance to music education. They create a good learning atmosphere for students, cultivate and stimulate students' interest in learning national music, and allow children to feel the national emotions contained in national music culture.
Such schools often organize students to participate in various off-campus activities and even organize special performances.

Teachers can also organize students to establish a singing team or drama team in their spare time, and encourage students to perform on stage during holidays or events.

Therefore, the classroom teaching model does not need to be fixed. It should create rich and diversified teaching models with innovative concepts according to the requirements of social development and educational needs in different historical periods; adopt a variety of teaching methods to integrate with each other, and pursue openness and democracy and innovation to adapt to the development of music education in the new era.
We must also adhere to this curriculum concept when teaching traditional ethnic music. The same is true for specific teaching methods, which can mainly adopt appreciation, lecture, modular, and practical methods, combined with lectures, case studies, demonstrations, etc., through various practical activities such as listening, singing, playing, editing, and comprehensive art performances.
