PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Physical Education 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.

 Physical Education is defined as a planned, sequential instruction that promotes lifelong physical
activity, designed to develop basic movement skills, sports skills, and physical fitness as well as
to enhance mental, social, and emotional abilities (Wikipedia.org)
 It plays an integral role in the Education system for reasons that it promotes a holistic approach
to the development of a human being encompassing all aspects
such as the physical, social and even emotional.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
  A body movement that is produced by the contraction of skeletal muscles and that substantially
increases energy expenditure (Lacy and Hastard, 2007)
 Physical activity that is done regularly is said to produce
health benefits and thus is considered to be a form of exercise
as conceptualized in the books of Hoeger and Hoeger (2005)
and Seidentop (2004).

EXERCISE
 A type of physical activity that requires planned, structured,
and repetitive bodily movement to improve or maintain one or
more components of physical fitness ( Hoeger and Hoeger,
2005)
 Leisure-time physical activity conducted with the intention of
developing physical fitness (Siedentop, 2004)

PHYSICAL FITNESS
 According to Robbins, Powers and Burgess (2002) Physical
Fitness refers to a fit individual who is able to complete the
normal routine for the day and still have ample reserve energy
to meet the other demands of daily life – recreational sports and
other leisure activities and energy to handle life’s emergency
situations.

BIG IDEA
What is difference between physical activity and exercise?

Physical activity is movement that is carried out by the skeletal muscles that requires energy. In
other words, any movement one does is actually physical activity. Exercise, however, is
planned, structured, repetitive and intentional movement intended to improve or
maintain physical fitness.
