1. Having said the Physical Education is interdisciplinary, how should a person reinforce each of its
aspect (physical, social, emotional, mental and spiritual.

First let me define what interdisciplinary means. According to Merriam Webster Dictionary,
interdisciplinary means involving two or more academic, scientific, or artistic disciplines. Physical
Education does not end with physical activities. In order for a person to reinforce these aspects, he must
be aware of the development that he could bring to each. If he is lacking in some departments then he
ought to do something about it. Strengthening the phases of physical education will bring about an
advantageous holistic deal that could also synchronize all the dimensions into one.

2. Why is there a need to reinforce or integrate Physical Education to the society in a more
intensive manner?

The best way to eat an elephant is to cut him up into pieces. Making our society a better place to
live in, we must know what to do with the small units-people, us. Physical Education deals with all the
interdisciplinary of an individual. In this manner, we could infer that Physical Education plays a great
role in nurturing and improving a person. As we realize this, we'd stumble at the thought that if this is
reinforced in the society as whole then it would surely bring a positive change. Physical Education is
essential in every individual and people must know that this must be realized, observed and taken into
account.

3. As a student, how will you utilize Physical Education for the benefit of the community as a
whole?

I'm a student who knows what Physical Education have that could benefit us all if conformed to. It
brings a lot of pros that all of us could use in our betterment. I could use this knowledge and share to my
peers and my neighbors the advantages of it. In addition, I could sway them to tell those to their
acquaintances that will bring a domino effect. Social media is a platform that could be utilized as well.
Since we are technology literate, we could use this rostrum to show how physical education could be of
service to us that will bring the whole community up. We'd soar up high altogether through education.
4. Knowing the importance of Physical Education to the life of an individual, why do some chose
not to engage in physical exercise/activities?

People have a variety of perspectives. My perspective could not always be aligned with yours nor
will yours to mine. Each one of us has something we believe in that may differ from the others. Some
people want to engage themselves in physical activities and some may refuse to do so. Their decision
might be influenced by their peers, family customs, their timetable, chores that they need to accomplish,
and some other responsibilities they have to attend to. They do not realize that engaging to physical
activities is a must because not only will it bring physical help but it could also bring much more
including social, emotional and spiritual benefits.
ACTIVITY NO. 1 My Words and Thoughts

A. Discuss your own concept of Physical Educatoion

Physical Education deals with a number of phases including physical, emotional, social and
spiritual aspects. It pertains to the development of these aspects that will consequently turn an
individual into a fully nurtured one. Physical education does not put its demarcation covering
only physical activities. Aiming to develop the totality of a person as a whole is its purpose.

B. Enumerate and discuss the objectives of Physical Education.

Basically physical development refers to a student's physical growth and development. This
objective see to it that a student gets to enjoy what life has to serve with strength and the feeling of peace
in mind and a competent body. The physical activities done by a person could result to the development
of confidence too. A healthy lifestyle of an individual would benefit him/her inside and out. The social
development objective of physical education tells about how being active in a physical activity could
bring man to interact with his fellows and induce friendship, improve family relations and create
connections. Physical Education supply not only physical and social development but also emotional
progression. This part brings gain like confidence to a man's self, self-reliance, and self-control. Physical
education becomes a therapy for some and this is another reason why not e should push ourselves and
inspire others to do the same. Physical education involves activities that will challenge the mind of
learners. We learn things from our environment and physical education provides an environment that
would bring out skills from us. This will continuously improve our abilities to think and act for our future
needs, a mental development indeed. Spiritual development which is also a part of physical education
brings forth the ability of an individual to go deeper and delve into more than what's visible to the eye.
Reflection with issues in life and the society could be associated as well especially to one's self. This will
make a way for a more and deeper understanding.

C. What are the standards for an individual to be considered as physically fit?

An individual is physically fit if he/she could work without being easily exhausted. A man
must also be aware of the objectives of Physical Education and is practicing it and applying it in his own
life. Involving one's self in physical activities, having a healthy eating habit, watching proper hygiene and
dealing with the mental, social and spiritual issues with power, complete understanding and responsibility
is a fit.
