Introduction
Physical Education is "education through the physical". It aims to
develop students’ physical competence and knowledge of movement and
safety, and their ability to use these to perform in a wide range of activities
associated with the development of an active and healthy lifestyle. It also
develops students’ confidence and generic skills, especially those of
collaboration, communication, creativity, critical thinking and aesthetic
appreciation. These, together with the nurturing of positive values and
attitudes in PE, provide a good foundation for students’ lifelong and life-wide
learning (Education Bureau, 2022).
This module will help students to enlighten ideas why physical
education really important to learn in school and added on their school
curriculum. They will also enlighten to what factors their fitness level
increases and/or decreases to have their desire healthy lifestyle.
Lesson Proper
LEGAL BASIS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Article XIV Section 19 of the 1987 Constitution provides that “[t]he
State shall promote physical education and encourage sports programs,
league competitions, and amateur sports, Including training for international
competitions, to foster self-discipline, teamwork, and excellence for the
development of a healthy and alert citizenry. All educational institutions shall
undertake regular sports activities throughout the country in cooperation
with athletic clubs and other sectors. ” (Villanueva, 2017).
Republic Act No. 9155 otherwise known as the “Governance of
Basic Education Act of 2001” and Republic Act No. 5708 or “The Schools
Physical Education and Sports Development Act of 1969" also provide
that integrated physical education and school sports and physical fitness

program shall remain part of the basic education curriculum and shall be
undertaken by the Department of Education (Villanueva, 2017).
IMPORTANCE OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Quality physical education programs are needed to increase the
physical competence, health-related fitness, self-responsibility and enjoyment
of physical activity for all students so that they can be physically active for a
lifetime. Physical education programs can only provide these benefits if they
are well-planned and well-implemented (Red Oak Elementary, 2023)
Improved Physical Fitness: Improves children's muscular strength,
flexibility, muscular endurance, body composition and cardiovascular
endurance.
Skill Development: Develops motor skills, which allow for safe, successful
and satisfying participation in physical activities.
Regular, Healthful Physical Activity: Provides a wide-range of
developmentally appropriate activities for all children.
Support of Other Subject Areas: Reinforces knowledge learned across the
curriculum. Serves as a lab for application of content in science, math and
social studies.
Self-Discipline: Facilitates development of student responsibility for health
and fitness.
Improved Judgment: Quality physical education can influence moral
development. Students have the opportunity to assume leadership, cooperate
with others; question actions and regulations and accept responsibility for
their own behavior.
Stress Reduction: Physical activity becomes an outlet for releasing tension
and anxiety, and facilitates emotional stability and resilience.
Strengthened Peer Relationships: Physical education can be a major force
in helping children socialize with others successfully and provides
opportunities to learn positive people skills. Especially during late childhood
and adolescence, being able to participate in dances, games and sports is an
important part of peer culture.
Improved Self-confidence and Self-esteem: Physical education instills a
stronger sense of self-worth in children based on their mastery of skills and
concepts in physical activity. They can become more confident, assertive,
independent and self-controlled.
Experience Setting Goals: Physical education provides children the
opportunity to set and strive for personal, achievable goals.

FITNESS CONCEPTS
Wellness is the combination of many things that improve
a person’s ability to live and helps them work well
enough to make a big difference in society (Camadador
et.al, 2022). Wellness is the search for enhanced quality
of life, personal growth, and potential through
positive lifestyle behaviours and attitudes. If we take
responsibility for our own health and well-being, we can
improve our health on a daily basis. (Surender Kumar,
2019). Certain factors influence our state of wellness are
the following Dimension of wellness below:

Dimension of Wellness
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) has identified eight dimensions of wellness to focus on to
optimize health. The eight dimensions include: emotional, spiritual,
intellectual, physical, environmental, financial, occupational, and social.
Wellness can be compromised by lack of support, trauma, unhelpful
thinking styles, chronic illness/disability, and substance use. The eight
dimensions are described below and are accompanied by examples and
ideas for improving each area (Marjie L. Roddick, MA, NCC, LMHC (May
27, 2016).
1. EMOTIONAL - It is an ability to cope effectively with life and build
satisfying relationships with others. People with
healthy emotional wellness feel confident, in control
of their feelings and behaviours, and are able to
handle life challenges. Working through life
challenges can build resiliency as we learn that
setbacks can be overcome. Emotional health can be
maintained or improved by engaging in regular leisure and recreational
activities. Do activities that involve each of your senses: smell, taste,
touch, sight, and sound. Listen to music, eat your favorite food, light your
favorite candle, play with your pet, and watch your favorite movie or the
sunset.

2. SPIRITUAL- It is related to your values and beliefs that


help you find meaning and purpose in your life. Spiritual
wellness may come from activities such as volunteering,
self-reflection, meditation, prayer, or spending time in
nature. Signs of strong spiritual health include having clear
values, a sense of self-confidence, and a feeling of inner
peace. To improve your spiritual health, it can help to create
a quiet space for solitude and contemplation or a place of
curiosity and playfulness. Maintaining a playful, curious attitude can help
you find experiences that offer hope, purpose, and meaning.

3. INTELLECTUAL – refers to when you recognize your
unique talents to be creative and you seek out ways to
use your knowledge and skills. When you foster your
intellectual wellness, you participate in activities that
cultivate mental growth. Reading, doing challenging
puzzles such as crosswords or Sudoku, debating issues
with others who have opposing viewpoints, learning a new language or
musical instrument, trying a new hobby, or teaching and tutoring others are
all ways to maintain or improve your intellectual wellness. When you
challenge yourself to learn a new skill, you are building your intellectual
health. People who pay attention to their intellectual wellness often find that
they have better concentration, improved memory, and better critical thinking
skills.
4. PHYSICAL - It is affected by physical activity,
healthy nutrition, and adequate sleep. There are
many examples of physical activity that range in
levels of intensity from light to vigorous.
Maintaining your physical health can include
yoga, bike riding, jumping rope, engaging in
sports, running, walking, jogging, skiing,
dancing, tennis, and gardening. Many people use
smoking or any other vices as a coping tool.
Unfortunately, this method of coping can lead to
a number of physical health problems (e.g. heart disease and cancer, and can
increase one’s chances of premature death) and the other dimension of
wellness as well.
5. ENVIRONMENTAL - It is related to the surroundings you occupy. This
dimension of health connects your overall well-being to the health of your
environment. Your environment, both your social and natural surroundings,
can greatly impact how you feel. It can be hard to feel
good if you are surrounded by clutter and
disorganization, or if you feel unsafe in your
environment. Pollution, violence, garbage build-up,
and water conservation are some of the factors affecting
environmental wellness. Ways to manage
environmental wellness include creating neighborhood
watches, recycling, planting a personal or community
garden, purchasing products with minimal packaging,
avoiding littering, and conserving energy and water by turning off lights and
water when not in use.

6. FINANCIAL – refers to the feeling of
satisfaction about your financial situation.
Finances are a common stressor for
people, so being able to minimize worry
about this aspect of your life can enhance
your overall wellness. Options for
managing financial wellness include
having a household budget, starting a
savings account and adding to it every
month even if it is just a small amount,
saving some of your income in an emergency account, cutting back or limiting
unnecessary expenses, avoiding credit card debt, donating to a meaningful
charity, shopping at thrift stores, utilizing the library for free books and DVDs,
and cooking your own meals instead of dining out. Try tracking your spending
for a month to see where your money is going and set goals based on what
you find.
7. OCCUPATIONAL – It is a sense of satisfaction with
your choice of work. Occupational wellness involves
balancing work and leisure time, building
relationships with co-workers, and managing
workplace stress. An occupational wellness goal
might include finding work that is meaningful and
financially rewarding. Finding work that fits with
your values, interests, and skills can help maintain
occupational wellness. Consider your office culture
and determine how supported you feel; if you discover
you feel a lack of support, seek out support from
others close to you and be sure to engage in recreational activities that can
help balance out work stress.
8. SOCIAL – It is a sense of connectedness and
belonging. It involves creating and maintaining a
healthy support network. Building a healthy
social dimension might involve asking a colleague
or acquaintance out for lunch, joining a club or
organization, setting healthy boundaries, using
good communication skills that are assertive
rather than passive or aggressive, being genuine and authentic with others,
and treating others in a respectful way.
What dimensions do you feel are your strongest? What areas would you like
to work on? If you have areas you would like to improve, seeking out support
can be helpful, whether it’s from a friend, family member, or counselor. What
would life be like if you optimized all eight dimensions? Setting goals for
yourself in each area can help you feel more fulfilled and optimize your health.

1. Component: BODY COMPOSITION
Test: BODY MASS INDEX
The body mass index(BMI) is calculated by dividing a person’s
weight (in kilograms) by the square of their height (measured in meters).
Body mass index is calculated as follows:

The following steps can be used with this formula (Adam and adam,
2009)
1. Weight in pounds divided by 2.2= weight in kilogram (kg)
2. Height in inches X 0.0254 = Height in meter (m)
3. Height in meters X height in meters = height in meters squared(m2)
4. Step 1 divided by step 3 = BMI

Body Composition Rating Scale

Anthropometric Measurement
To determine the components of the body, a number of quantitative
measures of the body’s skeletal muscle, fat, and muscle are taken. The
key parts of anthropometry are the subject’s weight, height, body mass
index (BMI), body circumferences (waist, hip, and limbs), and skinfold
thickness. Measurements are essential since they can be both oindixate
a possible weight issue (either underweight or overweight) and serve as
a point of the basis for developing a program that will increase physical
fitness levels.

2. Component: FLEXIBILITY

• Take your measurements down to the nearest half inch. If your fingers
overlap each other, you get a positive score. If they are unable to touch,
the score is negative. If your fingertips only touch each other, you get a
score of zero.
• Perform the movement again, this time, cross your arms the other
way(left arm up). The majority of people will discover that they can
easily do one side compared to the other.

2.3 Component: FLEXIBILITY


Test: Trunk rotation
Purpose: To measure the flexibility of trunk
Equipment: Ruler, Measuring Tape
Procedure:
• Attach two yardsticks, one with the right side up
and the other at shoulder height, to the wall.
• Place your left shoulder (fist closed) at arm’s length
https://www.topendsports.c
from the wall as you stand. Toes should be on the om/testing/tests/trunk-
line parallel to the wall and parallel to the rotation-acuflex.htm
yardstick’s 15-inch mark.
• Lower your left arm and lift your right arm to your side, fist closed, with
palm facing down.
• Reach along the yardsticks and spin the trunk as far as you can to the
right without shifting your feet, holding the position for two seconds.
Keep your feet still and your trunk straight. Your knees should slightly
flex.
• The distance will be read at the closest half-inch by a partner. Keep a
scoring log. Repeat, then get the average score from the two trials.
• Next, conduct the test while facing the other way. This time make a left
turn. You will use the second yardstick(upside-down) for this exam, and
the more rotation you get, the higher your score will be. If you just have
one yard stick, try it once with it upright and once with it upside down.

Procedure: http://philphysicalactivityguide.
• Allow the students to practice stepping to the blogspot.com/2016/07/ang-
pagsubok-sa-mga-sangkap-ng-
metrotone cadence, which should be set at 96 physical.html
beats per minute for males, and 88 beats per
minute for females. Links on the following page are provided for samples
of the cadence.
• For three (3) minutes, the student will step on and off the platform
following the prescribed rate (96 beats/minute-males and 88
beats/minute-females).
• Upon completion of the exam, the student will stop and will stay in a
standing position. Within a 5-20 second recovery period, measure the
student’s heart rate for 15 seconds. Recovery heart rate should be
converted to beats per minute.
Scoring: maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) in mL/kg/min is estimated
according to the following equation:
Men:
VO2max = 111.33-(0.42 x recovery heart rate in bpm)
Women:
VO2max = 65.81-(0.1847 x recovery heart rate in bpm)

Example: The recovery, 15-second heart rate for male following


the 3-minute step test is found to be 39 beats. His VO2max is estimated
as follows:
15-second heart rate = 39 beats
Minute heart rate = 39x4=156 bpm
VO2max = 111.33 – (0.42 x 156) = 45.81 mL/kg/min
