10.Long school holidays help students clear their heads,relax a little and stretch their brains in different ways.Traditionally,schooling schedules have long been based more on the needs of society than on efficient education strategies.For instance,in Iceland it was traditionally arranged to allow children to help out with harvest.Other countries have long summer vacations because it is simply too hot to study.In other areas where religion plays an important role in the holiday season,the religion calendar then calls for the break,so that students can have ample time to participate in the religious ceremonies and traditions of seasonal holidays.
There are some obvious advantages to a vacation that lasts longer.Families who live a long distance from relatives are able to travel together,sometimes across the ocean,in order to connect with their loved ones.Even if there is no visiting family far away,a long holiday is a great opportunity for kids to interact with the community.From an educational point of view,a child that is able to experience another culture can gain valuable language,history,and social skills.
Long school holidays are also needed in schools that have become overly academic and too exam-focused in recent years,which requires a considerably longer holiday break from such a"marathon pumping(灌输)of knowledge,"and it makes great sense!
Great psychologists,like Freud and Piaget,have stressed play's central role in the formation of fully-rounded (全面发展的) individuals,so the long holiday achieves this by allowing students to explore the world outside school.The students get to participate in activities that would be difficult to do during a regular school term.
As a consequence,long school holiday can be quite constructive to our students!
