Xinhua Net Review: Such a "civilized rest" is really barbaric

Students are only allowed to drink water and go to the toilet. They are not allowed to go downstairs. They can only chat with classmates at the front and back desks in the classroom. Teachers on duty are also arranged on each floor. During the break, the corridors are inspected... Recently, media reports This has caused widespread concern in the society because of the phenomenon of “carrying between classes” that is common in primary and secondary schools.
For this reason, many people appealed to the children to return 10 minutes between classes so that they can play in the school building.
Lively children can't go downstairs to "have a joy" during the break?
Such "sacred beasts return to the cage" seems to be in jail.
In the name of emphasizing discipline, many schools try their best to quiet down active students. They call it "civilized rest".
On the surface, the children are given rest, but this approach is actually "barbaric" dressed in a civilized cloak: it barbarically deprives the child of the right to free activities between classes, and barbarism interferes with which way the child chooses to play. Right, brutality prevents the right to make friends in games among teenagers.
A healthy body and mind is a good foundation for children's learning and development.
One relaxation, work-rest combination is a good recipe for learning that has been handed down since ancient times. This will not only not delay learning, but also "can do more with one stone".
For example, if children relax physically and mentally between classes, they can be more attentive in class; with more and free campus games, they can love the campus more; if they have a stronger interest in learning, they can learn more easily.
It is true that children playing and playing between classes may increase the chance of accidents, but it is not advisable to simply adopt “containment between classes” in order to ensure safety.
Accumulate bit by bit, and then can accumulate small streams to form rivers and seas, and accumulate step by step to reach thousands of miles.
Nowadays, physical education has received more and more attention and attention, and physical examinations also occupy a certain proportion in many entrance examinations.
However, children's strong physique requires not only specialized physical education and physical examinations, but also 10 minutes between classes to exercise and be happy.
