Can children sleep lying down at school?The Ministry of Education's latest reply will continue to guide, encourage and support qualified localities, coordinate existing school-running conditions, facilities and equipment, and create lunch break conditions for students according to local conditions, so as to provide a strong guarantee for the healthy physical and mental development of students. The reporter visited and found that schools in many places in Jiangsu Province began to try to use new desks and chairs to achieve "freedom to lie and sleep".
The neck is sore, the arms are numb, as long as you take a nap on your stomach, this situation often occurs after waking up. As soon as the semester started, more than 100 students in the first and second grades of Huashan Road Primary School in Nanjing City used reclining desks and chairs, easily realizing the change from "sleeping on the stomach" to "sleeping on the back". On December 18th, it snowed heavily outside, and the classroom was warm. "It's comfortable to lie down and sleep, it's good to sleep, and you can still dream. Yao Yuyang, a student in Class 2 (2) of Huashan Road Primary School, said happily.
In the second-grade classroom of Huashan Road Primary School, the reporter saw this one-piece reclining desk and chair, the height of the table and chair can be adjusted according to the height, the seat is equipped with soft cushions, and the back of the chair is also covered with small cushions, which can be used as a pillow at ordinary times. When students take a nap, as long as they sit upright in their seats, hold the armrests on both sides with both hands and pull them up, and lean back at the right time, they can put the backrest down, and then put the footrest in front of their feet flat, and it only takes a few seconds for a "bed" to appear in front of them. At 13:10, the lunch break arrived, and under the guidance of the teacher, the children closed the curtains, turned off the lights, and quickly laid down the chairs. After a while, many children fell asleep. According to the person in charge of the school, the Ministry of Education has repeatedly emphasized the "five management" of primary and secondary school students, one of which is "nap management".
Grades 1 and 2 are equipped with nap tables and chairs.
According to the relevant person in charge of Nanjing Educational Technology and Equipment Center, Nanjing began to explore the pilot of reclining desks and chairs two years ago, and at present, students from many schools, including Nanwai Fangshan Branch, Huashan Road Primary School, and Gaochun School of Nansu Normal High School, have used reclining nap desks and chairs.
In order to improve the quality of students' lunch breaks, the South Campus of the Suqian Branch of the Affiliated High School of Nanjing Normal University provides students with pillows and small quilts, and Zhu Xiaojie, director of the school's academic affairs office, said that the teachers on duty adjusted the indoor air conditioning to a comfortable temperature in advance to ensure the quality of students' lunch breaks.
Students participate in the lunch break not only to restore their energy but also to protect their eyesight. When sleeping on the stomach, it is easy to compress the eyes, causing the local intraocular pressure to be too high, resulting in eye swelling. If you sleep on your stomach, try to avoid pressing your eyes, such as buying a soft pillow or raising your head. "It is recommended to take a nap after ten minutes or half an hour after eating, and try not to overeat, which will also increase the burden of stomach digestion." ”
Scientific lunch break and health are linked to provide a strong guarantee for the healthy development of students' physical and mental health. Wang Xiuqin, chief physician of Jiangsu Provincial People's Hospital and deputy director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine, suggested that the lunch break is generally 30 minutes and cannot exceed 40 minutes, "people's sleep is cycled, first of all, it will enter the non-rapid eye movement sleep period, according to sleep monitoring can be divided into four periods, namely the sleep period, light sleep period, moderate sleep period and deep sleep period, if you enter the deep sleep period and then wake up, people are easy to be groggy, which is not conducive to the Xi state of students in the afternoon." ”
