Le pagelle in tempo di guerra

Appartengo ad una generazione per cui le parole hanno ancora una grande importanza. Le parole uniscono, separano, fanno crescere, progredire, creano differenze sociali e le annullano.

Sono cresciuta ascoltando Guccini, De Andrè e Dalla.

Poeti che hanno giocato con le parole così come con la musica. Per capire cosa dicessero a volte ci ho messo anni, ricercavo il significato sul vocabolario, ma il senso vero me lo ha dato solo l’esperienza. Bisognava conoscere le parole ed avere il coraggio di utilizzarle.

I miei genitori hanno fatto politica da quando io ho memoria ed anche per loro le parole erano necessarie. Parole e coraggio, un binomio sconosciuto oggigiorno. Le canzoni da anni rivelano una pochezza senza precedenti. I libri di testo hanno smesso di ambire ad un miglioramento generazionale e ci propinano la stessa sbobba da decenni, invasa di luoghi comuni e senza il minimo di criticità.

Gli insegnanti d’altronde, pur appartenendo alla mia generazione, sembrano aver dimenticato i bei tempi andati, l’età dell’oro in cui il re sole, il linguaggio, elargiva doni che eravamo bramosi di carpire, le parole. Si barcamenano tra i soliti tre quattro concetti in maniera quasi casuale, utilizzando per ogni scolaro gli stessi termini farciti dai, anche lì tre quattro, aggettivi standard. Il tempo politico, mi viene detto, impone una standardizzazione dei giudizi.

E, se le parole hanno una qualche importanza, lo hanno anche le menzogne. A dover essere standard devono essere gli alunni e con loro anche gli insegnanti. Quello che viene richiesto è un livello base per tutti, in tutte le materie, non esistono genialità, non esistono avversioni o meglio esistono ma vengono livellate da giudizi precompilati.

Il coraggio di andare oltre manca a tutti ad ogni ordine e grado. Il voto numerico è lo strumento tipico di chi ha rinunciato alla parola e ai milioni di declinazioni possibili ed ha abdicato al suo ruolo di insegnare (dal latino in-signare cioè imprimere segni) per occupare, con il beneplacito della maggior parte dei genitori, il ruolo consolatorio di mediatore (sempre dal latino mediare, stare nel mezzo).

L’insegnante di oggi non smuove le masse, non appassiona, non condanna le ingiustizie ma, anzi, spesso, le perpetua, come ormai insite in un sistema sociale ed educativo che garantisce un equilibrio. INSEGNARE oggi è un atto rivoluzionario.

Viviamo nell’epoca del tuttosommato. Tutto sommato andiamo avanti, tutto sommato mangiamo, abbiamo un posto garantito, ci togliamo qualche sfizio e tutto sommato rimaniamo schiavi.

Mi sarebbe piaciuto, in questi anni da genitore, ricevere una pagella diversa. Una pagella alla Alberto Manzi – fa quel che può, quel che non può non fa.

Ed invece mi sono sempre scontrata con il muro dettato dal numero. Questo siamo, solo numeri e così veniamo trattati.
Mi sono sempre sforzata di andare oltre, cercando, in quei voti, di riconoscere i talenti, le eccellenze, le difficoltà, i gusti. Quello è importante per me, per poterli aiutare, guidare, sostenere. I numeri li ho sempre rispediti al mittente.

Ci hanno detto in questi mesi che eravamo in guerra e non a caso hanno usato questa parola perché solo in una situazione di guerra possono essere sopportate e digerite le costrizioni, le privazioni e i sacrifici che abbiamo sopportato. I ragazzi sono stati dimenticati per decreto legge. Chiusi in casa dai primi di marzo e privati di qualunque diritto, in primis all’istruzione.

Si è cercato di mettere una pezza con la cosiddetta didattica a distanza in cui l’unica cosa certa era la distanza. Cosa hanno appreso i ragazzi negli ultimi mesi? Cosa hanno cercato di trasmettere gli insegnanti, e ci sono riusciti?
Se hanno fallito è alla scuola che dovrebbe essere data la colpa, alle connessioni traballanti, spesso affidate ai cellulari, agli strumenti tecnologici condivisi, ai genitori che si sono rifiutati di assolvere ad una funzione che non gli apparteneva. Ci è stato chiesto di acquistare computer, stampanti, fare abbonamenti internet, imparare a capire come mai se segui una videolezione su Meet il microfono non funziona.

Gli insegnanti, in tutto questo, non hanno considerato questa come un’occasione, per loro, innanzitutto, di dare libero sfogo al loro coraggio, di assolvere finalmente al loro ruolo di insegnare. Hanno abdicato, ancora una volta.

A fine anno, come imposto da una circolare ministeriale (vogliamo parlare della Azzolina?), pur non avendo mai avuto, nel secondo quadrimestre, il controllo della classe, pur non avendo assolto al loro ruolo fino in fondo, hanno emesso un giudizio.
Un giudizio che si discostava da quello del primo quadrimestre, un giudizio che premia le diseguaglianze. Un giudizio vigliacco.

All’inizio della seconda guerra mondiale, quando le scuole furono chiuse (molte furono bombardate) all’inizio del secondo quadrimestre, gli alunni furono valutati con il metodo del giudizio, non del voto, sulla base della pagella del primo quadrimestre e gli alunni che avevano insufficienze dovettero recuperare le materie in cui non avevano la sufficienza.

Sono passati quasi 80 anni e la scuola di passi indietro ne ha fatti diversi.

Parole e coraggio. Ahimè queste sconosciute.

  1. Convey the weights to your knees so that the dumbbell ends relaxation on the knees and sit back onto the bench

    a part of the physique. This is a common mistake when athletes
    are bench pressing too much weight. Throughout a dumbbell bench press, the
    weights ought to keep above the athlete’s chest and transfer straight up and down. Utilizing an extreme amount of weight can forestall an athlete from utilizing typical dumbbell bench press form, but it can additionally be dangerous.

    Lower the dumbbells in direction of your chest, preserving your elbows tucked in.four.
    In conclusion, whether or not you go for the equilibrium of the dumbbell
    press or the facility of the bench press, each is a
    valuable addition to your routine. Embrace the journey,
    keep consistent, and all the time focus on type for one of the best outcomes.

    They also can be an effective strengthening exercise for sports activities like sprinting,
    hockey, and football. Correct dumbbell bench press kind begins with the proper setup,
    including a bench and dumbbells. With arms prolonged in order that the weights are over the chest,
    interact the core and squeeze the scapulas collectively for stability.
    Slowly decrease the weights in a clean, controlled motion till
    the elbows attain 45-degree angles.
    For example, a narrower grip bench press will put extra emphasis on the triceps and forearms.
    A bench press is an exercise that can be used to strengthen the muscle
    tissue of the higher physique, together with the pectorals, arms,
    and shoulders. The pectoralis major is the primary
    reason athletes use the dumbbell bench press. This muscle
    group is situated within the center of your chest and is considered one
    of the most seen mirror muscles. The major function of the pectoralis main is the
    rotation and flexion of the shoulder joint. Whether Or Not you’re a newbie or a seasoned lifter, the
    flat dumbbell press offers infinite opportunities for development.

    With dumbbells, you will get a larger stretch and squeeze in your pecs (you can bring them closer collectively on the top
    of the motion, which forces your chest to contract more).
    We’ve already went over all you should learn about the standard grip flat
    bench press. If you should learn how to do it, scroll as
    much as the ‘The Means To Do A Bench Press’ part.

    A good place to begin is to select a small weight and attempt a set of eight
    to twelve repetitions. The athlete ought to complete a minimum
    of eight repetitions utilizing the correct type.
    They can continue to extend the load till they can’t complete
    a set of eight to twelve reps. Though not the primary muscle group
    labored through the flat chest press, the biceps
    brachii act as stabilizers and help in sustaining grip on the barbell.

    Experiment with completely different inclinations, grip widths, and bar paths to find what feels best
    for your physique. This is as a end result of when the bench is at an incline, your
    higher pec muscle fibers might be immediately under the
    line of force. In the flat bench press, the line of force passes via the middle of your chest muscle tissue, and that is why the flat bench press is
    such an excellent basic chest builder. Novices
    can profit from bench presses with out weight on the bar to heat up,
    get a feel for the bar, and study correct type.
    If you’re extra advanced and bench press with heavy weight, use a
    spotter. Additionally, a pair of weightlifting gloves
    may give you a better grip. Relying in your objectives, there are different variations of bench presses that work slightly totally different muscles, too.

    Generally talking, newbie and intermediate lifters will see the best outcomes by benching twice per week.
    Studies show that coaching a muscle group twice every week will
    show higher results than once every week. No matter what variation of the bench press
    you do, just about all the identical muscular tissues might be
    activated. Nevertheless, the totally different variations of the bench
    press will emphasize sure muscles.
    Correct respiration patterns and lifting tempo are essential for maximizing the efficacy of the Flat Dumbbell Press.
    Inhale as you lower the dumbbells, preserving the movement steady and unhurried.
    This not only helps in stabilizing the core but additionally ensures a rhythm that can improve focus and energy era
    throughout the lift.
    Lifters have interaction the delts at completely different angles all through the carry to enhance strength.
    Whereas the pectorals handle the lion’s share of the
    work, lifters depend on the triceps to supply stability all through the raise and to complete
    the lockout. With dumbbells, it’s attainable to change the grip, which engages the triceps more to boost definition. The anterior deltoids are situated on the entrance facet of your shoulder.
    They work with the pectoralis major to flex and rotate your shoulders.

    1– Sit on the end of an train bench with a dumbbell in each hand.
    Count On expert-backed exercises, vitamin recommendation, the latest in strength sports activities, and a complete lot of motivation heading your method.
    Since you want to have an enormous, sturdy chest, you might be finest advised
    to do each these exercises in your exercises.
    Prepare to maximise your energy with our exclusive
    13-week power training program. If you consider strength curves, the movement
    is simpler at the top than it’s the backside.
    It’s useful for athletes hoping to beat a plateau with the barbell bench press or seeking to
    stability the chest muscles. Moreover, this exercise provides athletes a higher range of movement than the traditional barbell press.
    Keep In Mind to regulate the load and repetitions primarily based on your
    fitness stage and targets. This sample workout routine incorporates the flat chest press as the primary train and includes extra
    workouts to focus on different muscle teams within the upper
    physique. It offers a balanced strategy to energy
    and muscle improvement. One of the most impactful workouts to build strength in these muscle tissue is the
    flat bench dumbbell press.
    Its simplicity and effectiveness make it a staple in gyms worldwide.
    In this complete guide, we’ll explore flat bench workouts, the muscles they
    target, benefits, variations, widespread mistakes, and tricks to maximize your results.
    None of this implies the barbell bench press is a bad train, however doing
    bench press with dumbbells will get round all of
    those drawbacks. In addition, adding dumbbell bench presses to your workouts
    will increase exercise selection. Research inform us that
    variety is just as essential as, sets, reps, and weight for constructing muscle
    and power (1). The best exercise for you depends on your individual goals and talents.

    The higher the load, the higher the impact on muscle fiber recruitment.
    As you bench press extra, it’s a good idea to provide yourself exposure to all three bench press variations every so often to ensure you’re not leaving
    any pec fibers undertrained. All three of these bench press variations will prepare the pecs, triceps, and anterior delts
    to various levels. For the sake of getting somewhat extra granular in this article, I’ll highlight which pec fibers
    every variation sometimes trains extra of.
    The incline bench press will entail bench urgent on an incline bench.

    After the athlete is seated on the bench, they should firmly grasp the dumbbells
    and carry them onto their knees one at a time. As the athlete lays down, they should “kick” the dumbbells
    up above their chest. If you have shoulder accidents,
    it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional or a professional
    fitness trainer for workout routines which are suitable in your particular situation. Taking the time to heat up properly enhances efficiency and reduces the chance of pressure or damage.

    This switches you from eccentric-concentric contraction to isometric contraction. General, it’s good for building power,
    as isometric contraction is nice for getting stronger. With resistance bands,
    the more they stretch, the extra resistance they have. With that, in the bottom vary of the
    bench press, the band has less tension, almost to a negligible level, so the burden load is not really
    more difficult than it usually can be with out the band.
    Nevertheless, as you press up, the band stretches, so when you
    reach the mid to top range, the band provides resistance so what would usually be the better part of the lift
    becomes more durable.
    For instance, in case your upper chest just isn’t where you want it to be from an aesthetics standpoint, an incline bench press may be
    the resolution to your problem. Or, in case you have pre-existing
    shoulder ache or tightness, then manipulating the angle of the
    bench may permit you to nonetheless carry out a urgent motion safely.

    The incline bench press is usually programmed on chest,
    higher body, or push days. Although you’ll have the
    ability to prepare the incline bench press within the 1-5
    rep vary, the 8-12 rep vary is ideal. If aesthetics is your
    objective, lifting within the 1-5 rep vary isn’t going to be essentially the most advantageous approach to practice.

    You will see rapid features as a newbie and there’s no want for fluff as just maximizing one carry and progressing in it goes to be more than enough to see the enhancements you want.
    As Soon As you get more superior, you’ll need to start out including in variety.
    Beneath is an instance of how one can add the variations into your routine.
    That mentioned, the ground press isn’t just used
    for these who don’t have a bench. In reality, it’s more common, at least
    in terms of barbell floor presses, to use them to work on growing lock
    out strength and tricep and shoulder development.
    Nonetheless, if you want to acquire sheer energy, compete in a powerlifting
    meet, or have more power & explosiveness on the field, a
    flat bench press is the way in which to go. Whether Or Not you’re an athlete or not, it’s a good idea to incorporate both bench press variations
    into your routine. They may target the identical muscle groups, but they every provide unique advantages.
