Abstract：

This paper explores the deep integration path of ancient poetry and music classes in primary and secondary schools from the dual perspectives of cultural inheritance and ideological and political education in the curriculum. By analyzing the current situation of teaching practices at home and abroad, it proposes a reform plan centered on the "three-dimensional integration strategy" for content innovation, technology empowerment, and evaluation system reform. The effectiveness of this plan is verified through teaching cases such as "Water Tune: Head" and "Spring River Moonlit Night". The research shows that the cross-disciplinary integration of ancient poetry and music can significantly enhance students' cultural understanding, artistic expression, and value recognition, providing a practical model for the "living inheritance" of China's excellent traditional culture.
