Healthy Lifestyle of a Schoolchild - Correct Recommendations

What makes up a schoolchild’s health?

The health of each person consists of several important factors:

• biological factor or heredity (about 20%);
• natural and social conditions (about 20%);
• activities of the health care system (about 10%);
• a person's lifestyle by 50%.

These figures make you think, don't they? It turns out that a person’s health directly depends on himself.

The formation of a healthy lifestyle should begin as early as possible. After all, it is easier to teach a child from childhood than to break stereotypes in adulthood. At school age, this is the task of the child and the adults who surround him. And these are, first of all, parents and teachers.

What should a schoolchild's diet be like?

The student is recommended to eat four times a day. Nutrition should be balanced and appropriate for his age. It is necessary to regularly include nutrients in the student's diet. His diet must contain proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins in the required quantities. This is important for the harmonious physical development of the child. In addition, it is necessary for successful mental activity of the brain.

Parents of teenagers should pay special attention to nutrition. During this period, against the background of hormonal changes, the body especially needs a proper and complete diet.

Does a schoolchild need a daily routine?

As practice shows, a person who knows how to organize his life achieves better results. This is due to the ability to competently and effectively distribute your time for work and rest.

For a schoolchild, the daily routine is important. After all, you need to go to school, do your homework, attend a club or section and relax. To manage everything you need to be able to properly distribute your time.

The role of parents is very important in this matter. They must take on both organizational and supervisory functions. At the beginning of school life, due to not yet fully formed mental processes, it is very difficult for a child to accustom himself to order. They may not spend their time rationally and for this reason they may not have time to do much. This subsequently leads to nervous breakdowns and reluctance to go to school.

In adolescence, this problem is still relevant. But this is due to the student’s interest in other aspects of his life to the detriment of educational activities. Here, parental control will play for the benefit of the teenager himself.

Teacher’s health: what diseases can work at school “reward”

TOP 5 diseases of teachers

The teacher is betrayed not only by chronic fatigue, but also by a number of specific professional ailments. This list included:

1. Neuroses. At the end of the semester, a teacher can easily burst into tears or yell at the class because of a non-writing pen or lack of chalk. In the life of every teacher, there have been times when he checked and took notebooks from home, but forgot to turn off the light/iron, finish makeup, put on something, take off all the curlers, or walked to the public transport stop in slippers. All this is due to overstrain of the nervous system.
2. Inflammatory processes of the nasopharynx (sore throat, pharyngitis, laryngitis, etc.) . If in the morning at the first lesson the teacher cheerfully greets you: “Good morning,” then at the end of the fifth lesson he quietly whispers. It’s not only a matter of fatigue, but also dry mucous membranes and constant tension in the speech apparatus.
3. Scoliosis and stooping . Which teacher's workplace is equipped with an orthopedic office chair? Maybe they are in every classroom? We think not. It turns out that the teacher needs to sit for 45 minutes in a crouched position, then spend a couple of hours in a crooked position over notebooks, and then hope for a healthy back. A little optimistic.
4. Heart attacks and ischemia. The seventh graders started a fight in the middle of class; the graduates did not come to school at all, although they left the house. The second graders decided to go around the stairs on their briefcases. And that's just part of the daily school stress for adults. If we add here dissatisfied parents and a demanding administration, then it’s no wonder that your heart hurts, and valerian and validol have long since settled in your purse.
5. Emotional burnout . The condition is typical for representatives of social professions. Nothing makes me happy, there is no creativity, I can only think about one thing: to go home soon. Teachers’ emotional burnout is characterized by: irritability, vulnerability, resentment, decreased performance, inability to be creative and concentrate.

Why do teachers get sick?

Doctors identify several causes of specific ailments of teachers:

• Increased load on the speech apparatus. The average person speaks 16,215 words a day. Teachers significantly review this indicator every day. Teachers “pronounce” this norm from the first, “Good afternoon, children, take out your notebooks,” to the last, “Let’s write down your homework.” If for students this is just a background sound, then for the teacher it is a constant load on the vocal cords and throat.
• High level of stress and emotional stress . On average, a full-time teacher has 4 lessons every day. Let there be 25 people in each class. In total, the teacher came into contact with 100 students in one day. What if there was also a teachers’ council, a parent meeting, a club or an elective? Each person is his unique thoughts, emotions, experiences that the teacher passes through himself. With such a flow, it is no wonder to feel empty.
• Physical inactivity. Simply put, this is low physical activity. The dashes “house-teacher-classroom-teacher-house” are not taken into account. During the lesson, the teacher sits or stands. Because of this, blood stagnation begins in the veins of the legs.
• Lack of fresh air. Be honest with yourself: do you open the windows for ventilation during breaks in the staff room or during class? Are there air humidifiers in classrooms and staff rooms? We think that the answer to both questions will be “no”. Teachers are afraid of drafts or forget about ventilation altogether. The result is an enclosed space with a high concentration of microbes and low humidity.
• Chronic eye strain. Only the teachers themselves will understand how much health it takes to check notebooks at night and analyze children’s scribbles. It is not surprising that as teachers approach forty, their vision decreases and glasses appear on their faces.

How to keep a teacher healthy?

Nobody suggests changing jobs or leaving school immediately. But we ask you to follow the recommendations that were developed specifically for strong nerves and a healthy body. The teacher only needs:

• Sleep at least 8 hours. If there is blood from the nose, and you need to check your notebooks, then go to bed before 22.00, and in the morning it’s better to wake up early;
• Monitor your water balance . The average teacher drinks at least 3 cups of tea or coffee per day. How much clean water? The daily norm for an adult is from 1.5 to 2 liters. If you drink it, the mucous membrane of the throat will dry out less, the risk of diseases will decrease, and performance will remain at a high level;
• Eat one bright fruit daily. Apple, banana, persimmon, tangerine, dried apricots. First, replenish your supply of vitamins and minerals. Secondly, orange and yellow colors disperse the autumn blues and depression;
• Deal with stress. Buy yourself or print an anti-stress coloring book from the Internet. After difficult teacher advice or a lesson during recess, start painting it. You will be able to get a little distracted and your nerves will be in order.

It’s wonderful when a teacher loves children and forgets about everything in the world at school. But you just need to take care, care and cherish your loved one. Then professional illnesses will not prevent you from achieving pedagogical heights.

What habits are prohibited?

There are a lot of negative factors around us that affect our health and well-being. But first of all, we must abandon those that depend on the person himself. We are talking about bad habits.

Every student should know about the negative effects of alcohol, tobacco and drugs. About the destructive effect of these substances on the human body and social life. Their use should be completely prohibited.

Scientists believe that a person who does not smoke at school is unlikely to smoke in adulthood.

I would like to note that bad habits are not only those that directly affect our body. A special place in them is occupied by habits that destroy the student’s psyche. One of them is computer games.

A child, with a still fragile psyche, entering the virtual world, involuntarily associates himself with the hero. And modern games are full of murders, conquests and magic. What happens to the children? They become aggressive, hostile and uncommunicative.

In a teenage environment, going into the virtual world is fraught with a complete loss of the sense of reality. In extreme cases, this leads to withdrawal and even suicide.

Yes, today it is simply impossible to imagine a modern person without computer technology and the Internet. But let's not forget that everything is good in moderation. A child’s mental health is an important component of a healthy lifestyle.

For senior schoolchildren, chastity should be added to the basics of a healthy lifestyle. As practice shows, this is the most reliable way to avoid early unwanted pregnancy and protection against sexually transmitted diseases.

Formation of a healthy lifestyle among schoolchildren and bad habits

Healthy lifestyle and bad habits
As for bad habits, protecting a schoolchild from smoking, drinking alcohol or drugs is today an extremely important, although very difficult task. Countless unfair advertising of negative habits that attacks schoolchildren from television or the Internet easily penetrates the minds that have not yet matured.

It is advisable to protect the student from the influence of such advertising, and vice versa - to direct a significant part of the efforts to promoting a healthy lifestyle and telling about the negative consequences of such bad habits. The best way for this is the personal example of parents and educators.

In order to form a healthy lifestyle in a schoolchild, an integrated approach to children is necessary. The joint work of parents, teachers, social educators, psychologists and medical workers can give a real positive result.

When should a student be taught a healthy lifestyle?

A healthy lifestyle for a schoolchild is a system. And the sooner the child gets used to this, the easier it will be for him in life in general. After all, habit is second nature.

Remember, mental and physical health are equally important for the harmonious development of a student. There is no healthy psyche without proper development of the physical body and vice versa.

It is important to follow the rules and a systematic approach, and then your school-age child will be healthy and successful in his educational activities.
