2. K TO 12 PHYSICAL EDUCATION
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
The Physical Education Curriculum under the K to 12 Basic Education Program is anchored on the tenet “Move to Learn, Learn to Move” with ultimate goal of
achieving lifelong fitness. The framework is bounded on the context of legal and philosophical underpinnings pursuant to Article IV Section 19 of the Philippine
Constitution which mandates that:
The 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.
This curriculum shall contribute to the development of fitness, health and wellness among school-age students as provided in the program’s rich and challenging
physical activity experiences. It shall promote the development of a participative and active body; learning to use the body in moving efficiently and effectively in a
given space, time, effort and assurance of quality movement. The desire for becoming a physically educated person, thus aid an individual in successfully selecting
and in participating in activities appropriate at various stages of life.
In order to facilitate the development of an active lifestyle, selected and appropriate activities are designed in line with the five strands of learning which include body
management, movement skills, games and sports, rhythms and dance and physical fitness.
Body Management includes body awareness, space awareness, qualities and relationships of movements and how these are used dynamically in various physical
activities.
Movement skills relate to the fundamental movement patterns and skills that form the basis of all physical activities.
Games and sports comprise simple, lead-up and indigenous games, that help in the acquisition of proper sporting techniques in preparation for greater or competitive
participation in selected sports and recreational activities.
Rhythms and dances include understanding and performance of rhythmical movement patterns; promotion of the appreciation of Philippine folk dance, indigenous
and traditional dance and other dance forms, and the proficiency in performing a diversity of dances as contributory activities to achieve fitness, health and wellness.
Physical fitness includes assessment through fitness testing, interpreting and recording; the design and implementation of appropriate programs that will develop and
maintain learners’ desired fitness levels.
Each strand is sequentially developed across grade levels. Activities are varied and age-appropriate to address the needs and interest of learners and shall provide
movement experiences that enhance the involvement of every learner in all physical activities for lifetime use.
K to 12 Curriculum Guide - version as of January 31, 2012 2
3. K TO 12 PHYSICAL EDUCATION
The integrated movement approach enables the learner to relate the movement context to the development of motor skills and other combined use in a variety of
activities. The approach shall enable the learner’s ability to apply these concepts to their performance in a variety of physical education activities in school and in the
community they belong. This approach emphasizes the identification of movement potential which are used as the means for transfer of learning and in
understanding the human activity.
This curriculum responds to the government’s thrust in achieving total participation and involvement of the whole learning environment via instructional support
(quality instruction), administrative support (facilities and equipment), public and private partnership (cooperative effort) and the home and community support
(parents and society).
