Physical Educaion 8; Healthy Lifestyle in a New Normal Preface This module is designed to explore knowledge and skills that will help you and your family develop a lifelong habit of physical fitness and wellness. Developing this lifelong habit poses a real challenge for many families. Nowadays, people are less physically active because of various reasons, one of which is the advancement of science and technology. Many people are no longer participating in any fitness-relevant activities. While we are aware of the health benefits and importance derived from engaging in physical activities, we tend to take its significance for granted. Unfortunately, many young people do not engage in worthwhile physical activities anymore. This may be due to your age, your inability to execute them well, or your current health status. Being physically fit and healthy can help you get through with the stresses and demands of life. It improves your self-esteem, develops your confidence, and clarifies your self-concept which can only be realized as you get older. Dancing is everywhere. It is an integral part of the society and culture. In the early history of humanity, events were celebrated with and through dancing. There are dances for victory, peace and harvest, birth, death and other celebrations. Furthermore, it serves as an avenue for self-expressions, entertainment and religious beliefs. One of the most important benefits of dancing is improving a person’s overall fitness and providing joy and satisfaction. Every quarter, you will be receiving an e –module that you need to study and accomplish on your own flexible schedule. Each module consists of; a. Learning Objectives include what you must achieve, and understand. This part contains outcome -based objectives. b.

Physical Educaion 8; Healthy Lifestyle in a New Normal The Role of Parents The School-Home or Parent-Teacher partnership is very vital in the students’ academic achievement and success in education. Parents play an important role in their children’s attitudes about learning and support learning at home. This partnership is an important factor to help students reach their maximum potential. As we shift to a new paradigm of the online teaching-learning process, we believe that educating students cannot be achieved by teachers’ efforts alone. Parents’ involvement in the education of their children is essential. Thus, parents are encouraged to play the following roles to supplement that of the teachers. • Setting up parental controls for a safe and worry-free screen time of their children • Providing physical and technical support in setting up the children’s learning station at home, checking internet connection and any laptop malfunction • Providing a conducive place for their children to work during live lessons, with good lighting, quiet and comfortable venue for learning • Providing necessary school materials/equipment needed as required by the subject teachers for their children’s project/ output/ performances/ activities • Making sure that their children are dressed appropriately (school uniform) while participating in live lessons • Establishing routines/schedules and house rules in online learning • Monitoring the conduct of proper behavior of their children during live lessons(synchronous) • Ensuring that the child is on task within the given schedule • Monitoring the children’s work constantly by browsing the module or logging on to the PSD e-desk /learning portal • Monitoring their children’s progress in school regularly, by constantly checking their work through browsing the module and logging on to the PSD e-desk portal and making sure that the homework/ assigned activities are done • Motivating their children to do their best in everything that they do by giving commendations on their achievements and encouraging them to work independently • Maintaining harmonious parent-teacher relationship and attending scheduled parent-teacher conferences and other important school meetings • Reading communication sent by the school, accomplishing the required response for each letter and confirming the receipt of the letter through PSD E-desk • Answering the school’s online survey and correspondence as honestly and promptly as possible • Communicating clarifications or issues with the teacher within the official work hours • Keeping in touch with the teachers to keep themselves up-to-date with their children’s progress • Raising issues and concerns through the proper forum Richard A.
