Back to school: a new beginning
The start of the new school year can be traumatic for many students. After three months of well-deserved holidays, get used to the wake up early, to lessons and homework is not easy at all. We adults, we have already been there and smile thinking about the time spent among the benches, but for us too the return was like a nightmare! There school it is a training ground for life. They are the ayears in which to learn, in which to get involved and lay the foundations for what we will become tomorrow. These are the years of new friendships, those that (perhaps) will continue to exist for years and years. Those with whom, once adults, we will smile and laugh at the experiences made right on those benches.
The return to school marks the beginning of an experience and the resumption of studies. Knowledge, culture and the study of the past to understand the present. School is a thought that is masterfully articulated in a dualism. The student, ready to receive and grasp the information and on the other hand the teacher ready to teach and stimulate the curiosity of the student. For children who are going back to school for the first time, it is useful for parents, but also teachers, to proceed step by step. Detachment is certainly not easy, but it is important not to transmit anxiety, not to worry and to alleviate the burden of this new challenge.
Some useful tips for back to school
As parents, let them tell you what your child learns in school. Try to stimulate him, to instill a sense of tranquility and of do not transmit anxiety to him and worries. You are his point of reference, try to transform his fears into curiosity and thirst for knowledge. Bring the children to the attention of the possibility of making new friends, of being able to compare with their peers and tell them positive anecdotes and stories from when you went to school. Explain to them how important it is sleep at least eight hours a night to better face the school days. Always keep in mind that you are their point of reference! For older students, try to better organize the study. Create sharing groups for the study of the most difficult subjects, do not delay, but be constant. This way you will have time for small outings and to practice your favorite sports.
Pupils and teachers: a perfect dualism
If on the one hand the return to school involves the students, on the other hand the teachers are not far behind. Teaching means planning, preparing and involving pupils. The school is an institution of extreme complexity, necessity, sensitivity, empathy and coordination. Continuous maintenance and the search for stimuli. Create, instill and direct, right from Primary School. Giving the tools, instilling ideas and doubts. Countering the sick culture, teach the beauty of diversity, promote integration and happiness in being together. Help students integrate and understand the importance of relationships with others. Collaborate so that each student can begin to build the foundations for the future and outline the contours of the man and woman he will become.
