Health educators tend to assist people in
making better health choices.. Since pupils are
more likely to choose foods that are flavorful
but not good for their health, PE and health
teachers should present topics that encourage
pupils to eat healthy foods such as fruits and
vegetables.

2. Motivation
Adults (those over the age of 18 )are more likely
to repeat the behaviors they developed during
childhood and adolescents (from 6-16years
old).For this reason, teachers and parents must
encourage children and teenagers to live an
active and safe lifestyle.

38. Your physical health is probably the most important
aspect of health. Whether it is running, swimming,
walking, dancing, or playing basketball, every
movement you make strengthens your muscles. Being
active will benefit you both physically and mentally,
which will also more than likely add years to your life.

wellness, which relates to interacting and
communicating with others. Watching movies with
family or friends, attending a party, or playing a
game of catch aren't just fun things to do; they are
also essential components to maintaining your
health. Studies have shown that loneliness and
isolation often lead to depression, social anxieties,
and mental health issues.

Most people have heard of the term cognitive health
yet are completely unfamiliar with what it means.
Cognitive Health refers to the brain and it's ability to
perform. Cognitive functions include learning a new
language, judgement, and memory. There are a
plethora of different ways to improve your cognitive
health, including watching TV, reading, solving
crossword puzzles, playing a card game, or simply
maintaining regular social interactions.

Activity–and Child-Centered Curriculum
OBJECTIVES :
At the end of this lesson,you will able to:
• Define curriculum. Give the similarities and
differences between an activity-centered curriculum
and a child-centered curriculum;
• Differentiate traditional curriculum from the
progressive curriculum;
• Justify how teaching physical education and health
will be more effective using a physical education and
health activity and child-centered curriculum; and
• State how elementary pupils benefit from physical
education and health in an activity-and child-centered
curriculum.
LESSON

46. Curriculum is a Latin word that means “race”. It
derives from the verb currere, which means “to fly” or
“to proceed.” The academic material taught in a
school is referred to as the curriculum.
In 1939, the curriculum was based on a 19th-
century tradition of organized knowledge taught in
classrooms. The definition of a curriculum has
evolved over the last two centuries to include a
variety of modes of thinking and experiences. Without
a curriculum, no formal, non formal, or informal
education can occur. If there is no program, teachers
will have nothing to do. The teaching career revolves
around the curriculum. In the classroom and schools,
every teacher is led by a curriculum.

47. The ff. are some of the views on the activity
curriculum:
* John Dewey: "The activity curriculum is a
constant flow of activities for children,
unbreakable by systematic subjects and
springing from the child's desires and felt
needs."
Defining Activity-and Child-centered curriculum
LESSON

48. * The framers of Wardha Scheme of
Education: "We've attempt to draft an activity
curriculum that means that our schools should
be places of work, creativity, and exploration
rather than passive absorption."
* Comenius View: Anything that needs to be
learned must be learned by
practice/doing."eativity
Defining Activity-and Child-centered curriculum
LESSON

49. Defining Activity-and Child-centered curriculum
*Rousseau's View: "Instead of pressuring the
child to concentrate on his books, I keep him
occupied in the workshop, where his hands will
support his mind."
LESSON

50. Defining Activity-and Child-centered curriculum
*Pestalozzi's View: "The verbal method of instruction
does not suit the child's ability or the circumstances of
his or her life."
A Child-centered Curriculum. In curriculum studies, a
child-centered curriculum is a core and controversial
term. The child-centered curriculum is related to John
Dewey's progressive Educational views.
The child-centered curriculum was created to develop a
pupils individual and social attributes rather than provide
abstract knowledge through the specified subject matter.
The child-centered curriculum empowers pupils to take
control of their education.
LESSON

51. Physical Education and Health in an
Activity - and Chill - centered curriculum
The teachers may manage the pupils with the
following activities:
*Music and Movement - in this activity, the pupils will
move their body according to the beat, words, tune,
speed, and other elements used in a particular music
or song.
LESSON

52. Physical Education and Health in an
Activity - and Chill - centered curriculum
*Luksong Baka - This traditional game from
Bulacan helps pupils practice how to jump high
without experiencing injuries. Pupils will also
learn different skills such as balance and
cooperation, and they could develop self-
confidence when they successfully execute the
task.
LESSON

53. *Patintero - This activity is also called
harangang Taga or tubigan. This activity
requires pupils to move all body parts.
*Tug of War - this activity will measure the
strength of each participating players
*Hopscotch or Piko -this activity is very
famous among young children. The activity
requires physical strength and a lot of jumping

External Influences
> Cognitive Learning Theory suggests that
Internal Thinking & External Influences are
both essential aspects of the cognitive
process
> Pupil's knowledge of their thought
processes will aid their learning.

65. Learning Theory #2
CONSTRUCTIVISM LEARNING THEORY
> Rather than passively taking information, pupils
construct knowledge.
In Learning,
- Pupils create their representations and
integrate new information.
- Pupils develop their learning based on their
prior experiences.
- Pupils integrate what they have experienced
with their prior knowledge and experiences.
- Personal and Special experience for each pupil.
LESSON
5

66. Learning Theory #2 CONSTRUCTIVISM
LEARNING THEORY
In Constructivist Classroom,
- Teacher serve as something of a reference
- Assisting pupils in developing their learning
& understanding
- Assist in developing their methods and
truth based on their own experiences
- Incorporating their own experiences into
their learning
LESSON

67. Processes of assimilation and accomodation
> assimilation (integrating new data into a pre-
existing schema)
> accomodation (revising and redeveloping an
existing schema using newly acquired
knowledge)
Learning Theory #2 CONSTRUCTIVISM
LEARNING THEORY
LESSON
5

68. Consequences of the constructivist theory
• Instead of passively receiving knowledge, pupils learn
better when they are actively engaged in learning
experiences.
• Learning is inherently a collaborative activity because it
takes place in a social environment where pupils and
teachers cooperate to acquire information.
• Because knowledge cannot be imparted to pupils, teaching
aims to provide opportunities for pupils to develop
knowledge through experiences.

Teaching
There are few key elements to consider.
According to Baviskan, Hartle, and Whiteney
(2009).
• Elicit prior knowledge - In relation to the
pupul’s prior knowledge, new knowldge is
generated. As a consequence, lessons
necessitate the elicitation of appropriate prior
information.

Encourage the pupils to asses new
information and make changes ton their prior
knowledge. Pupils should be ableto relate
their pre- esxisting schema to the current
situation through activities.

73. Physical education deals with bodily
movements, while health deals with acquiring
knowledge. Health may also benefits from
this theory by simply applying some health
practices or lessons in reality. Active learning
is needed in physical education when it
comes to learning how to be fit, play games
and sports, do other recreational activities.
