School books in fascicles

A somewhat curious initiative that we believe is beneficial for children is the one proposed by Isacio Siguero, president of the Medical Association of Spain. With regard to back pain resulting from the transport of school supplies in backpacks, Siguero has made an interesting request to publishers who are dedicated to providing school books.

This is reduce the weight of books through the edition of monthly, bimonthly or quarterly issues, buy the book distributed in fascicles to take to school only the part of the subject that will be given and reserving at home those that will be used later or those that have already been studied. Undoubtedly it is an effective measure to reduce the problems of excessive weight in the backpacks, the bad thing is that at school the books are not always followed from the first to the last page, but this would be a matter of teachers fixing it With the publishers.

It is not strange that this issue is discussed so much, the return to school is closely linked to back problems. On the other hand, it has also been requested to provide schools with chairs adjustable to the height of each child for proper back placement and habitual practice of certain sports. We have already talked about this in the post. Exercising with our children will help prevent backaches.

It is a problem that must be remedied as soon as possible, it must be taken into account that up to 60% of children under 15 have ever suffered back pain and physical care as soon as they start, the better.
