As traditional culture becomes increasingly emphasized in modern education, how to integrate Chinese traditional culture into classroom teaching effectively has become an important research topic. This study, based on Stimulus-Organism-Response framework, uses 5th and 6th-grade students from G Primary School in City B as the research subjects. Through classroom observation, questionnaires, and learning outcome assessments, data on students' cultural identity, learning interest, and classroom engagement were collected to analyze the application of traditional cultural elements in interdisciplinary teaching. The San Zhao Lantern, as one of the representations of traditional culture, was used as a teaching medium in this study. The results show that the introduction of traditional culture significantly enhances students' cultural identity, increases their learning interest, and improves classroom engagement. This study provides empirical support for the integration of traditional culture into modern education, validating the effectiveness of interdisciplinary teaching design under the Stimulus-Organism-Response framework and offering new perspectives and insights for educational practice.
