Abstraction

How it began?

Physical education originated thousands of years ago, in Ancient Greece.


In roughly 380 BC, Plato mentioned physical education in "The Republic", stating
that two types of education were necessary: educating the mind and educating the
body. Gymnastics was the form of physical education taught in Ancient Greece.
Boys and young men were expected to practice gymnastics regularly, in the
gymnasium situated in the center of Athens. A healthy body was celebrated
through the competitive gymnastics and races of the Olympic Games.

The brief history of physical education would start in just about 1820 when
schools focused on gymnastics, hygiene training and care and development of the
human body. By the year 1950, over 400 institutes had introduced majors in physical
education. The Young Men's Christian Association launched its very first chapter in
1851 and focused on physical activities. Colleges were encouraged to focus on
intramural sports particularly track, field and football. But physical education became
a formal requirement following the civil war when many states opted to pass laws
that required schools to incorporate a substantial physical education component into
their curriculums. But it was not till 1970 that an amendment was made to the Federal
Education Act that allowed women from high school and college to compete in
athletic competitions. Sex-based discrimination was completely outlawed from
government funded programs at this point.

Development

The first teacher of physical education to appear in America was a German


named Charles Beck. Physical education was taught by a select few in Germany in
the late 1790s, and in the 1820s Beck decided to promote physical education across
the world, travelling to France, Switzerland and eventually America. In 1825, Beck
was hired by the Round Hill School in Northampton, Massachusetts, becoming the
first official physical education teacher in the States. The school contained a
gymnasium, and Beck primarily taught German gymnastics.

Physical Education in college

From 1825 to the present, the form of physical education taught in schools
has altered dramatically. Whilst gymnastics is still taught as part of physical
education, it no longer forms a key part of the curriculum. Instead, athletics and
sports are now the main focus. The current emphasis on overall health and fitness,
and particularly physical stamina and endurance, stems from World War II, when
45% of the first 2 million males drafted failed their physicals. Since 1941, physical
education has been given increased time, attention and priority in American schools.

College athletics received a major stimulus when a National Collegiate
Athletic Association was created in the early twentieth centuries. There was a rise in
popularity of sports within colleges and universities and funding greatly increased.
Colleges took great pride in their athletic programs and sports scholarships became
a norm. There was also a surge in people who enrolled in sports education programs
to meet the growing demand for professionals in the field.

Decline in Physical Education

But this is not meant to imply that the history of physical education has been
all rosy. Late in the twentieth century there was certainly a decline in the commitment
to physical education. The growing offering of extra subjects and electives in schools
means that the shift was focusing away from physical education and towards
academics. The country also faced a recession around 1970 and 1980 and the
dearth of government funding means that physical education programs were often
the first to be cut from schools and universities.

The modern age

But recent awareness of the need for balanced curriculums particularly given
the national concern over the state of obesity and children's attention towards non-
physical activities like video games has brought physical education back in the
spotlight. The government has re-signaled its commitment to physical education by
making it mandatory in public schools in early classes. But it remains an elective at
the high school level. One of the most interesting developments in the history of
physical education has been how the definition of physical education has evolved.
While it only encompassed traditional sports in the beginning, it now includes several
fewer physical activities such as yoga and meditation which are considered critical
to helping students develop a sense of control in such a stressful age.

Lesson Purpose and Objective of Physical


Education
2
Objective:

• Demonstrate understanding on the concept, objectives and purposes of physical


education.

Introduction:

In recent years, physical education has been falling out of its position as a staple of the
traditional school day. Research not only connects regular P.E. classes with improved academic
performance, but also suggests that lack of activity could be damaging children’s cardiovascular health.
Despite the scientific evidence, the modern curriculum continues to impede physical education in favor
of more time spent in the classroom, placing additional pressure on physical educators and school
departments to optimize the time allotted towards achieving crucial fitness goals

Abstraction

1. Organic Development:

o Foremost objective & related with physical development.


o Development of organ systems such as circulatory system, nervous system,
muscular system, digestive system etc.
o Development in size, shape and efficiency of organic system are performed.
o During physical activities, the body demands more and more from various systems
and organs, which in turn have to function optimally to cope with the stress of
activity.

2. Neuro-muscular Development:

o Concern with better co-ordination between nervous system and muscular system.
o Good neuro-muscular co-ordination helps to keep of fatigue during vigorous
activities.
o Improves working with various equipment and tools.
o Also known as psycho motor development or co- ordination development.

3. Intellectual or Cognitive Development:

o Participants are required to follow the rules and regulations of a specific sport and
apply these rules according to the situation in that sport.
o Participants learns the values of these activities and carry it over for lifetime.

situation.
o Competitions are an indispensable part and are characterized by success and
failure.
o Physical education teaches to accept success and failure gracefully, which are
also helpful throughout the lifetime.

6. Health Knowledge Development:

o Health knowledge is a part and parcel of P.E. Program.


o School health education program includes not only principles and important rules
of health education but also information regarding healthy living and community
health.
o It also speaks of health hazards in society like alcohol, smoking, drug addiction etc.
o This knowledge builds a healthy and positive life style and society.

7. Development of Right Attitude towards Physical Activities:

o Physical education aims not only at teaching & learning various physical activities
but also helps to develop a healthy attitude towards sports and games.

8. Spiritual Development:

o By participating in physical activities and solving several tasks in the playfield, one
develops self-confidence and self-control.
o This self-control leads to moral and character development together with spiritual
development.

Lesson The Philosophy of PE


3
Objectives:

• Identify the philosophical theories of physical education.


• Apply the theories and philosophies in the teaching of physical education.

Introduction:

What's the point of all of those physical education classes we've all taken? Sure, we got to
have some fun playing sports but was that all there was to it? Of course not. The philosophy
behind physical education entails principles that teach students the mechanics of physical activity,
why it's important, and how they can and should remain physically active on their own.

It goes much deeper than that, of course. Underlying this outward manifestation of physical
education is the understanding that if students learn all of this and apply it, it will benefit them
tremendously in terms of physical and mental well-being. This will, in turn, benefit the entire nation
since healthier people do not take up as many healthcare resources.

Clearly, good physical education affects the health and economics of individuals and an entire
nation. So why don't we take a closer look at the goals, purposes, and current trends of physical
education.

7 Major Philosophies in Physical Education

1. Idealism

o The mind, developed through the acquisition of knowledge, is of highest


importance.
o Values exist independently of individuals.
o Fitness and strength activities contribute to the development of one's personality.
o Horace Mann, Wordsworth, Kant, Plato, and Descartes were idealist

2. Realism

o The physical world is real.


o A realist believes in the laws of nature, the scientific method, and mind
and body harmony.
o Religion and philosophy co-exist.
o Physical fitness results in greater productivity, physical drills are
important to the learning process, athletic programs lead to desired
social behavior, and play and recreation help life adjustment.
o Aristotle was a realist.

3. Pragmatism

o Experience is key to life.


o Dynamic experience shapes individuals' truth.
o Education is child-centered.
o Varied activities present experiences that are more meaningful.
o Activities are socializing.
o Problem solving accomplishes learning.
o John Dewy and Charles Pierce were pragmatists

4. Naturalism

o This philosophy is materialistic.


o Things that actually exist are found only within the physical realm of nature.
o Nature is valuable.
o The individual is more important than society.
o Self-activities accomplish learning and activities more than physical in nature.
o Naturalists promote play and discourage high levels of competition.
o Physical education takes a holistic approach.

5. Existentialism

o The chief concern is individualism.


o Existentialists do not want the individual to conform to society.
o They promote freedom of choice and a variety of interests.

o Sartre, Soren and Kierkegaard were Existentialists

6. Humanism

o One of the modern philosophies of physical education that most schools


follow today.
o The basis of the humanistic philosophy is the development of individual
talents and total fulfillment that encourages total involvement and
participation in one's environment.
o Humanists encourage self-actualization and self-fulfillment.
o Curriculums based on the Humanistic approach are more student-centered.

7. Eclecticism

o The second modern philosophy of physical education that most schools


follow today.
o The Eclectic approach combines beliefs from different philosophies and
does not resemble any single philosophy.
o When blended skillfully, the Eclectic approach affords a sound philosophy for an
individual.

Application

Based on the philosophies presented above, design a lesson that will employ
activities in physical education at least 3 philosophies in the lesson. Use Semi-
detailed 4A’s lesson plan.

To understand more the concept of psychology in physical education, please


study the following:

Mental Training Techniques in Physical Education

1. Goal Setting

Generally, process goals focus on how to do something while performance goals


focus on objective success or failure at the task.

SMART goals Being SMART about goal setting reminds you that your goals should be:

Specific: Set difficult but realistic positive performance and/or process goals that are
clearly stated.

Measurable: Set numeric goals so your progress can be easily measured.

Adjustable: Goals (and goal schedules) may need to be changed due to such things as
injury or sickness. Or you may have set goals that were in hindsight to easy
or too hard. Also, you should review your training methods to see if they are
effective and adjust your goals if needed.

Realistic: Know your limitations, but set goals that are challenging. Setting goals that are
too hard sets you up for failure, but they also need to stretch your abilities.

Time Referenced: Set target dates for achieving your goals. Again, these should be
challenging but realistic.

Goal Setting: Things to Avoid

• Setting goals that are not specific, realistic or measurable.


• Setting too many our progresses. Goals at once: keep it simple.
• Not monitoring Concentration and attention

2. Concentration

Concentration and attention control are perhaps the most important mental skills to
master. As there are so many potential distractions (sights, sounds, feelings, thoughts),
remaining optimally focused pays dividends. Selective attention is the ability to choose the
most appropriate stimuli to focus on, while concentration is the ability to sustain attention
over time. Players need to be able to shift attention rapidly and accurately. This constant
mental shifting from external to internal, broad to narrow and back is the essence of
attention control. Proper attention control allows a player to choose what is important, stay
focused upon it as long as necessary, and shift focus as needed.

3. Centering and relaxation

Centering and relaxation assist an athlete shift his or her thoughts away from
anxious negative thinking towards a relaxed, positive, focused mind-set. A simple way of
achieving this is through breathing exercises. One breathing exercise is centering, which
is breathing that commences from your center of gravity (behind your navel). This process
reduces tension and assists control under pressure through remaining relaxed.

The process deserves further reading but in simple terms it requires:

• An at ease standing position or lying with legs uncrossed


• Placing hands on top of each other on the abdomen below the navel
• Focusing on point behind the navel – the power and control center
• Breathing in through nose, using the stomach and sensing it expand
• Breathing out through the mouth, with the exhalation equal in time to inhalation
• Focusing attention on breathing and a single meaningful word on exhaling

4. Visualization and imagery

Imagery is the process of simulating sensory experiences in the mind in the


absence of external stimuli. Whenever a player daydreams of or imagines hitting an ace,
the player is using imagery. While visualization typically describes simulation of visual
stimuli, imagery may involve the simulation of many factors: sound, touch, body
awareness, psychological states such as confidence, and numerous other mental and
physical experiences. However, many coaches and sport psychologists use imagery and
visualization as synonymous terms.

Imagery is popular in sports, and much research evidence suggests that it


positively improves performance. Factors believed to improve an individual’s ability to
benefit from imagery include the ability to form vivid images, control the images, and relax
before producing images. Imagery is used to help players anticipate and solve problems,
prepare for tournaments, rehearse particular strokes and sequences, cope with adversity,
and reinforce positive performance.

Imagery may be performed individually or in a group, and it may be guided by a


sport psychologist or a coach. Like all mental skills, imagery and visualization must be
practiced by athletes consistently and correctly to produce positive effects.

Benefits of mind training techniques/skills:

Mind skills/techniques help athletes adjust their actions, thoughts, feelings, and
physical sensations in order to improve their games. Mental skills techniques do this by
helping the player to:

1. Improve focus and deal with distractions.

Many athletes have the ability to concentrate, but often their focus is displaced on
the wrong areas such as when a batter thinks “I need to get a hit” while in the batter’s box,
which is a result-oriented focus. Much of my instruction on focus deals with helping athlete
to stay focused on the present moment and let go of results.

2. Grow confidence in athletes who have doubts.

Doubt is the opposite of confidence. If you maintain many doubts prior to or during
your performance, this indicates low self-confidence or at least you are sabotaging what
confidence you had at the start of the competition. Confidence is what I call a core mental
game skill because of its importance and relationship to other mental skills.

3. Develop coping skills to deal with setbacks and errors.

Emotional control is a prerequisite to getting into the zone. Athletes with very high
and strict expectations, have trouble dealing with minor errors that are a natural part of
sports. It’s important to address these expectations and also help athletes stay composed
under pressure and when they commit errors or become frustrated.

4. Find the right zone of intensity for your sport.

This will vary from person to person and from sport to sport. Feeling “up” and
positively charged is critical, but not getting overly excited is also important. You have to
tread a fine line between being excited to complete, but not getting over-excited.

5. Help teams develop communication skills and cohesion.

A major part of sports psychology and mental training is helping teams improve
cohesion and communication. The more a team works as a unit, the better the results for
all involved.

6. Develop confidence post-injury.

Some athletes find themselves fully prepared physically to get back into
competition and practice, but mentally some scars remain. Injury can hurt confidence,
generate doubt during competition, and cause a lack of focus. I help athletes mentally heal
from injuries and deal with the fear of reinjury.

7. To develop game-specific strategies and game plans.

All great coaches employ game plans, race strategies, and course management
skills to help athletes mentally prepare for competition. This is an area beyond developing
basic mental skills in which a mental coach helps athletes and teams. This is very
important in sports such as golf, racing, and many team sports.

8. To identify and enter the “mental zone” more often.

This incorporates everything I do in the mental side of sports. The overall aim is to
help athletes enter the zone by developing foundational mental skills that can help athletes
enter the zone more frequently. It’s impossible to play in the zone every day, but you can
set the conditions for it to happen more often.

History of Music

Objectives:

• Identify the different period in music; and


• Explain the implication of understanding the historical perspective to the
development of Music.

Introduction:

In all probability, music has played an important role in the lifecycle of humans perhaps even
before we could speak. Significant evidence has been discovered that very early man developed
primitive flutes from animal bones and used stones and wood as percussion.

Voice would have been the first and most natural means of expression in our distant
ancestors, used to bond socially or comfort a sleepless child. It is from these humble beginnings that
the music we enjoy today evolved.

As we move further through the history of music, we find increasing evidence of its key role
in sacred and secular settings, although the division into these categories was not defined in this
way until many years later.

1. Medieval Period

As we move forward in musical time, we


begin to enter the Medieval Period of
music which can be generally agreed to span the
period from around 500AD up until the mid-
fifteenth century. By this time music was a
dominant art in taverns to cathedrals, practiced
by kings to paupers alike. It was during this
extended period of music that the sound of music
becomes increasingly familiar. This is partly due
to the development of musical notation, much of
which has survived, that allows us a window
back into this fascinating time.

From the written music that survives from


the monasteries and other important accounts of
musical practices, it’s possible to assemble an
image of a vibrant culture that ranges from the
sacred to the secular. Throughout the Medieval
period, the music slowly began to adopt ever
more elaborate structures and devices that
produced works of immense beauty and
devotion.
(medieval music notation)

Hildegard von Bingen and Perotin


pioneered many of the musical forms we still
recognize today including the motet and the
sacred Mass. Alongside these important forms
came the madrigal that often reflects the moods
and feelings of the people of the time. Its
wonderfully polyphonic form is both mesmerizing
and delightful.

2. Renaissance Period

(photo of Josquin des Prez: famous composer in the renaissance period)

Instruments developed in accordance with the composer’s imaginations. A full gamut of


wind, brass and percussion instruments accompanied the Medieval music, although it is still the
human voice that dominates many of the compositions. Towards the close of the high medieval
period, we find the emergence of instrumental pieces in their own right which in turn paves the way
for many musical forms in the following period: The Renaissance.

Before leaving this period of music it is important to mention the Troubadours and the
Trouveres. These travelling storytellers and musicians covered vast distances on their journeys
across Europe and further afield into Asia. They told stories, sung ballads and perhaps most
importantly, brought with them influences from far and wide that seamlessly blended with the western
musical cultures.

The Renaissance (1450 – 1600) was a golden period in music history. Freed from the
constraints of Medieval musical conventions the composers of the Renaissance forged a new way
forward. Josquin des Prez is considered to be one of the early Renaissance composers to be a great
master of the polyphonic style, often combining many voices to create elaborate musical textures.

Keyboard instruments also became increasingly common and the advent of the sonata
followed in due course. Other popular forms for instrumental music included the toccata, canzona
and ricercar to name but a few, emanating from the Courtly dance.

Towards the end of the Renaissance, what was called the Church Modes began to dissolve
in favor of what is now considered to be functional harmony or tonality based on a system of keys
rather than modes.

3. Baroque Period

(baroque music style and characteristics)

The Baroque Period (1600-1760), houses some of the most famous composers and
pieces that we have in Western Classical Music. It also sees some of the most important musical
and instrumental developments. Italy, Germany, England and France continue from the
Renaissance to dominate the musical landscape, each influencing the other with conventions
and style.

Amongst the many celebrated composers of the time, G F Handel, Bach, Vivaldi and
Purcell provide a substantial introduction to the music of this era. It is during this glittering span
of time that Handel composes his oratorio “The Messiah”, Vivaldi the “Four Seasons”, Bach his
six “Brandenburg Concertos” and the “48 Preludes and Fugues”, together with Purcell’s opera
“Dido and Aeneas”.

Instrumental music was composed and performed in tandem with vocal works, each of
equal importance in the Baroque. The virtuosity that began amongst the elite Renaissance
performers flourished in the Baroque. Consider the keyboard Sonatas of Domenico Scarlatti or
the Concertos that Vivaldi composed for his student performers. This, in turn, leads to significant
instrumental developments, and thanks to the aristocratic support of Catherine Medici, the birth
of the Violin.

Common musical forms were established founded on the Renaissance composer


principles but extended and developed in ways that they would have probably found
unimaginable. The Suite became a Baroque favorite, comprising contrasting fast slow
movements like the Prelude; Allemande, Gigue, Courante and the Sarabande. Concertos
became ever more popular, giving instrumentalists the opportunity to display their technical and
expressive powers.

Notation accompanies these developments and steadily we find that the accuracy of
composers works becomes more precise and detailed giving us a better possibility of realizing
their intentions in performances of today.

4. Classical Period

(classical period of music)

From the Baroque, we step into the Classical Period (1730-1820). Here Haydn and Mozart
dominate the musical landscape and Germany and Austria sit at the creative heart of the period.
From the ornate Baroque composers of the Classical period moved away from the polyphonic
towards the homophonic, writing music that was, on the surface of it at least, simple, sleek and
measured.

One key development is that of the Piano. The Baroque harpsichord is replaced by the early
piano which was a more reliable and expressive instrument. Mozart and Haydn each wrote a large
number of works for the Piano which allowed for this instrument to develop significantly during this
period.

Chamber music alongside orchestral music was a feature of the Classical Era with particular
attention drawn towards the String Quartet. The orchestra itself was firmly established and towards
the latter end of the period began to include clarinets, trombones, and timpani.

The rise of the virtuoso performer continued throughout this period of music as demonstrated
by the many of the concertos and sonatas composed during this time. Opera flourished in these
decades and became a fully-fledged musical form of entertainment that extended way beyond the
dreams of the Baroque composers.

5. Romantic Period

(romantic era of music)

As the Classical era closed Beethoven is the most notable composer who made such a
huge contribution to the change into the Romantic Era (1780 – 1880). Beethoven’s immense genius
shaped the next few decades with his substantial redefining of many of the established musical
conventions of the Classical era. His work on Sonata form in his concertos, symphonies, string
quartets and sonatas, goes almost unmatched by any other composer.

The Romantic era saw huge developments in the quality and range of many instruments
that naturally encouraged ever more expressive and diverse music from the composers. Musical
forms like the Romantic orchestra became expansive landscapes where composers gave full and
unbridled reign to their deepest emotions and dreams.

Berlioz in his “Symphonie Fantastique” is a fine example of this, or later Wagner in his
immense operas. The symphonies of Gustav Mahler stand like stone pillars of achievement at the
end of the Romantic period alongside the tone poems of Richard Strauss. The Romantic period
presents us with a vast array of rich music that only towards the end of the 19 th Century began to
fade.
It is hard to conceive of what could follow such a triumphant, heroic time in musical history
but as we push forward into the 20th Century the musical landscape takes a dramatic turn. Echoes
of the Romantic Era still thread through the next century in the works of Elgar, Shostakovich and
Arthur Bliss, but it is the music from France we have title impressionism that sparkles its way into
our musical consciences.

In parallel, the Teutonic world began to undergo its own revolution in the form of the second
Viennese school, led by Arnold Schoenberg. Disillusioned with the confines of tonality Schoenberg
threw out the tonal system in favor of a new twelve-tone serial system giving each step of the
chromatic scale equal musical validity. The result was serial music that was completely atonal and
transformed the musical landscape almost beyond anything that had happened before.

Lesson Fundamental Elements of Music


2
Objectives:

• Identify the fundamental elements of music;


• compose music of own style with the presence of all fundamental elements;
and
• draw out implications of the fundamental elements of music.

Introduction:

You don't need to be a musician to understand the basic elements of music. Anyone who
appreciates music will benefit from learning how to identify music's building blocks. Music may be
soft or loud, slow or fast, and regular or irregular in tempo—all of these are evidence of a performer
interpreting a composition's elements or parameters.

Leading musical theorists differ on how many elements of music exist: Some say there are
as few as four or five, while others contend that there are as many as nine or 10. Knowing the
generally accepted elements can help you understand the essential components of music.

Abstraction

1. Beat and Meter

A beat is what gives music its


rhythmic pattern; it can be regular or
irregular. Beats are grouped together in a
measure; the notes and rests correspond to
a certain number of beats.

Meter refers to rhythmic patterns


produced by grouping together strong and
weak beats. A meter may be in duple (two
beats in a measure), triple (three beats in a
measure), quadruple (four beats in a
measure), and so on.

Foundation of MAPEH
34
36

2. Dynamics

Dynamics refers to the volume of a


performance. In written compositions,
dynamics are indicated by abbreviations or
symbols that signify the intensity at which
a note or passage should be played or
sung. They can be used like punctuation in
a sentence to indicate precise moments of
emphasis.

Dynamics are derived from Italian.


Read a score and you'll see words
like pianissimo used to indicate a very soft
passage and fortissimo to indicate a very
loud section, for instance.

3. Harmony

Harmony is what you hear when


two or more notes or chords are played at
the same time. Harmony supports the
melody and gives it texture. Harmonic
chords may be described as major, minor,
augmented, or diminished, depending on
the notes being played together.

In a barbershop quartet, for


example, one person will sing the melody.
The harmony is provided by three others—
a tenor, a bass, and a baritone, all singing
complimentary note combinations—in
perfect pitch with one another.

Foundation of MAPEH
38
35
4. Melody

Melody is the overarching tune created


by playing a succession or series of notes, and
it is affected by pitch and rhythm. A
composition may have a single melody that
runs through once, or there may be multiple
melodies arranged in a verse-chorus form, as
you'd find in rock 'n' roll.

In classical music, the melody is usually


repeated as a recurring musical theme that
varies as the composition progresses.

5. Pitch

The pitch of a sound is based on the


frequency of vibration and the size of the
vibrating object. The slower the vibration and
the bigger the vibrating object, the lower the
pitch; the faster the vibration and the smaller
the vibrating object, the higher the pitch.

For example, the pitch of a double


bass is lower than that of the violin because
the double bass has longer strings. Pitch may
be definite, easily identifiable (as with
the piano, where there is a key for each note),
or indefinite, meaning pitch is difficult to
discern (as with a percussion instrument, such
as the cymbals).

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


38
39
36
6. Rhythm

Rhythm may be defined as the


pattern or placement of sounds in time and
beats in music. Roger Kamien in his book
"Music: An Appreciation" defines rhythm as
"the particular arrangement of note lengths
in a piece of music." Rhythm is shaped by
meter; it has certain elements such as beat
and tempo.

7. Tempo

Tempo refers to the speed at


which a piece of music is played. In
compositions, a work's tempo is indicated
by an Italian word at the beginning of a
score.

Largo describes a very slow,


languid pace (think of a placid lake),
while moderato indicates a moderate
pace, and presto a very fast one. Tempo
can also be used to indicate
emphasis. Ritenuto, for instance, tells the
musicians to slow down suddenly.

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


38
40
37
8. Texture

Musical texture refers to the number and type


of layers used in a composition and how these layers
are related.

A texture may be monophonic (single melodic


line), polyphonic (two or more melodic lines) and
homophonic (the main melody accompanied by
chords).

9. Timbre

Also known as tone color,


timbre refers to the quality of sound that
distinguishes one voice or instrument from
another. It may range from dull to lush and
from dark to bright, depending on
technique.

For example, a clarinet playing an


up-tempo melody in the mid to upper
register could be described as having a
bright timbre. That same instrument slowly
playing a monotone in its lowest register
could be described as having a dull timbre.

of a good music
Objectives:

• Identify the rudiments and salient features of good music; and


• Discuss the elements and salient features of Music.

Introduction:

How is it possible to identify principles that speak to the quality of song melodies, when
every melody that you write needs to be unique, never heard before? It’s chiefly by looking at the
thousands of great songs from the past several decades of pop songwriting, and identifying those
melodies that seem to make a strong connection to audiences.

So, what are the characteristics that all songs seem to have in common, no matter what the
genre? So, you might wonder what could it be?

Activating my Thoughts

Foundation of MAPEH Page |

41
Abstraction

1. Complexity / Variety

Good music has a high degree of complexity and internal variety. Minimalist or overly
simple music can't do much at all for you. In general (and other things being equal) the amount
of enjoyment you can get out of a piece of music is proportional to its complexity. The ideal of
"variety" should apply to your universe of music as a whole, not just to individual pieces. The
wider the range of stuff you like, the better will be your musical life. You can afford to carry some
knick-knacks and even a bit of rubbish along with the gold.

2. Unity / Coherence / Integrity

Variety without unity means noise! In good music, all the bits and pieces cohere to
make a satisfying "whole". A good piece of music is like a vibrant, happy society - it consists
of all sorts of folk but they all depend on one another and they all get along just fine.

3. Originality / Style

The best composers have an original, individual style and all the musical pieces they
create offer something new, both inspired and inspiring. (With the vast amount of music around
now, this is getting increasingly difficult.) “Original” doesn’t mean “outlandish”. If a musical piece
is too far out, it becomes inaccessible.

4. Organization / Balance / Flow / Direction

A good piece of music is well balanced and interestingly organized, the melody flows
and the whole thing has a sense of direction – it sounds like it’s going somewhere. “Balance”
means a lot of things, including orchestral or voice balance which, these days, is often
achieved electronically.

5. Sublimity / Transportation

Great music takes you somewhere else! It’s mind-blowing, it consumes you, elevates
you or whatever. Different kinds of music take you to different places. Some people reckon
there are good and bad places, and that’s what makes music good or bad.

6. Climax / Tension / Resolution

“Too many pieces of music finish too long after the end” (Stravinski)

A good musical piece has points of tension followed by a release. In particular the
piece as a whole usually has a climax and ends with a dispersal of remaining tensions.
Harmony (and dissonance) is usually the main element involved in this.
Foundation of MAPEH Page |
39
41
42
Pop songs often fade out instead of ending properly, while classical pieces often
stamp home the final resolution with repetition or fanfare - as Igor Stravinski wittily pointed
out.

7. Spontaneous, Natural feel

The best music sounds spontaneous and natural, not forced or contrived. People will
have their own opinions about this. Einstein once said that while Beethoven created his music,
Mozart's was so pure that it seemed to have been ever-present in the universe, waiting to
be discovered.

Others say listening to Mozart is like collecting shells along the beach. It's easy to see
what they mean, but doubtful whether this puts Mozart in a class above Beethoven.

8. Inevitability / completeness / non-arbitrariness

Good music leaves you with the feeling that all the notes are right and that even if
you altered a small number of them the whole piece would be spoilt. This characteristic is
more important with some genres than with others. For example, jazz is largely improvised,
so a degree of arbitrariness is to be expected.

The fact is; however, that much composed music does sound like that, and this is
especially true of modern music, which is governed by fewer rules and it really doesn’t matter
much what notes are played! Some kinds of music are just too easy to construct and require
little skill or creativity.

9. Excitement / Passion

"In opera, there is always too much singing" (Claude Debussy)

This is perhaps the most subjective aspect of good music. If a piece of music is
incapable of exciting or impassioning you (or somebody), you'd probably say it's boring and
not worth listening to. It pays to be reasonably objective here, and to realize that many, if not
most, people are excited by stuff that you might find uninspiring. Mood swings also come into
the picture.

10. Respect for Tradition

This is partly a concession to the "what is music?" argument and an acknowledgment


that the greatest music comes from the past, but the truth is that the best and most popular
music of today has its roots in traditional harmony and rhythm and follows most of the same
principles that were used by Bach. There appear to be some absolute values that underly all
good music.

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


39
42
43
11. Accessibility / Attention grabbing

Good music must be accessible, i.e. comprehensible to the usual audience for that
particular style of music. So, it has to be ordinary enough for them to be able to appreciate it,
original enough to grab their attention, and memorable enough for them to want to return to it
again and again. This is usually achieved by showcasing distinctive melodies, motifs or
"hooks".

Lesson Historical Overview of


4 Philippine Music
Objectives:

• Identify the three main divisions of Philippine Music;


• Discuss the implications of each division in the field of Philippine Music;
• Appreciate historical overview of Philippine Music.

Introduction:

The Philippines, an archipelago of 7,100 islands, is made up of 77 provinces grouped into


16 regions. The main groups include Luzon, the Visayan islands, and the Mindanao islands. Based
on religion, the population may be grouped into three broad categories: Christian groups,
indigenous religion groups, and Muslim groups. The Christian groups are the largest and are
concentrated in the lowlands of Luzon and the Visayan islands. Indigenous religion groups are
found in upland northern Luzon, Mindanao and Palawan. Muslim groups are concentrated in
Mindanao, the Sulu islands and southern Palawan.

Although, geographically, the Philippines belongs to the East, its music has been heavily
influenced by the West owing to 333 years of Spanish rule and 45 years of American domination.
Music in the highland and lowland hamlets where indigenous culture continues to thrive has strong
Asian elements. Spanish and American influences are highly evident in the music of the urban
areas.

Analysis

Based on concept map above, answer the questions that follows:

• Do you think Philippine Music is directly influenced by religion? Why or Why not?
• Do you think culture plays big role in the field of music?
• Do you think Philippine Music changes over time because of colonialism?
Why so?
• What do you think are the strongest points of Philippine music compared to the
music of the neighboring Southeast Asian Nation?

Abstraction

In discussing Philippine music, three main divisions are apparent: (1) an old Asian
influenced music referred to as the indigenous; (2) a religious and secular music influenced by
Spanish and European forms; and (3) an American/European inspired classical, semi-classical,
and popular music.

The Indigenous Traditions

The indigenous traditions are practiced by


about 10% of the population. Eight percent of this
minority comprises some 50 language groups of
people who live in the mountains of northern Luzon
and the islands of Mindanao, Sulu, Palawan, and
Mindoro in southern and western Philippines. The
remaining 2% of these groups are the Muslims from
Mindanao and Sulu.

While there is no written information about


the music in the Philippines before the arrival of
Magellan in 1521, subsequent reports made by
friars, civil servants and travelers include
descriptions of instrumental and vocal music–
sometimes mentioned in passing, other times in
greater detail. From these documents, various
kinds of interments made of bronze, bamboo, or
wood are cited. These include gongs of various
kinds of size and shapes, drums, flutes of
different types, zithers, lutes, clappers, and
buzzers. Vocal genres include epics relating
genealogies and exploits of heroes and gods;
work songs related to planting, harvesting, fishing; ritual songs to drive away evil spirits or to invoke
blessings from the good spirits; songs to celebrate festive occasions particularly marriage, birth,
victory at war, or the settling of tribal disputes; mourning songs for the dead; courting songs; and
children’s game songs. It is this type of music that is still practiced today by the indigenous groups.

The Spanish-European Influenced Traditions

With the coming of the Spaniards the Filipino’s music underwent a transformation with the
influx of western influences, particularly the Spanish-European culture prevalent during the 17th to
the 19th centuries. The Hispanization during the succeeding three centuries after 1521 was tied up
with religious conversion. It effected a change in the people’s musical thinking and what emerged
was a hybrid expression tinged with Hispanic flavor. It produced a religious music connected to and
outside the Catholic liturgy and a European-inspired secular music adapted by the Filipinos and
reflected in their folk songs and instrumental music.

Spanish Influences

Paseo de Iloilo

This is one of the most sophisticated


courtship and flirtation dances of the Spanish era.
The gentlemen compete among each other to win
the heart of the dalaga, or young lady, by
exemplifying chivalry, grace, and confidence. One
of the most sophisticated courtship and flirtation
dances of the Spanish era. The gentlemen

dalaga, or young lady, by exemplifying chivalry,
grace, and confidence.

Jota Manileña

A dance that originated in the capital city


around the 19th century. Like the other Jotas in
Philippine folk dances, this is an adaptation of the
Castillian Jota, but the castanets are made of
bamboo and are only held, not fastened, to the
fingers. It is recognizably Iberian in flavor.

47
44
The American Influenced Traditions

The American regime lasted from 1898 to 1946 during which time Philippine music underwent
another process of transformation. In the newly established public-school system, music was
included in the curriculum at the elementary and later at the high school levels. Music
conservatories and colleges were established at the tertiary level. Graduates from these institutions
included the first generation of Filipino composers whose works were written in western idioms and
forms. Their works and those of the succeeding generations of Filipino composers represent the
classical art music tradition which continues to flourish today.

Side by side with this classical art music tradition was a lighter type of music. This semi-classical
repertoire includes stylized folk songs, theater music, and instrumental music.

The sarswela tradition produced a large body of music consisting of songs patterned after
opera arias of the day as well as short instrumental overtures and interludes.

The strong band tradition in the Philippines, which began during the previous Spanish period
and which continues to this day, produced outstanding musicians, composers and performers.
Another popular instrumental ensemble was the rondalla which superseded an earlier type of
ensemble called the cumparsa. The latter was an adaptation of similar instrumental groups,
the murza of Mexico and the estudiantina of Spain.

American lifestyle and pop culture gave rise to music created by Filipinos using western pop
forms. Referred to as Pinoy pop it includes a wide range of forms: folk songs, dance tunes, ballads,
Broadway type songs, rock’ n’ roll, disco, jazz, and rap.

These three main streams of Philippine music– indigenous, Spanish influenced religious and
secular music, American/European influenced classical, semi-classical, and popular music
comprise what we refer to today as Philippine music.

Summary

In the course of history, music is the greatest creation of mankind. Creativity in the pure and
undiluted form is the true definition of Music. Music is an important part of our life as it is a way of
expressing our feelings as well as emotions.

Some people consider music as a way to escape from the pain of life. It gives you relief and
allows you to reduce the stress. Music is a powerful therapy that will make you calm down and in
the moment of joy, it will make you cheerful. Furthermore, it develops the mind and boosts your
self-confidence. Music plays a more important role in our life than just being a source of
entertainment.

“Arts is not what you see, but what you make others to see”

- Edgar Degas

In this Module

• Arts and Its Classification


• Elements of Arts
• Principles of Arts and Design

Introduction

Art has always been around in one form or another, helping mankind in the
development of diverse activities and their outcomes. Art is as vast as an ocean,
embodying a wide range of activities, such as sculpting, painting, photography and
architecture, etc. If we take a look at our past, we can see that the earliest form of art
that mankind learnt, was painting, presented on ancient walls. With the advancement
of time, newer forms of art arose, such as music, theatre and photography, etc., which
are nowadays considered the most beautiful types of performing arts.

Art is a way of expression, a way of joy, a way of making people understand


things which can’t be done verbally. In fact, we can say that everything that is beautiful
is art. Art provides mankind with a diverse range of necessities and comforts. The
use of art in various political and social issues to organize campaigns and create
awareness is indispensable. The importance of art in education for kids, as well as
adults, is undeniable. Art is everywhere around us.

Lesson Arts and its Classifications


1

Objectives:

• Develop a personal definition of arts;


• Identify the various classifications of arts; and
• Draw personal image of freedom with the presence of all classifications
of arts.

Introduction

The arts refers to the theory, human application and physical expression of creativity found
in human cultures and societies through skills and imagination in order to
produce objects, environments and experiences. Major constituents of the arts include visual
arts (including architecture, ceramics, drawing, filmmaking, painting, photography,
and sculpting), literature (including fiction, drama, poetry, and prose), performing
arts (including dance, music, and theatre), and culinary arts (including cooking, chocolate
making and winemaking).

Some art forms combine a visual element with performance (e.g. cinematography), or
artwork with the written word (e.g. comics). From prehistoric cave paintings to modern-day films,
art serves as a vessel for storytelling and conveying humankind's relationship with the environment.

Lesson
Elements of Arts
2
Objectives

• Identify the fundamental elements of arts;


• Differentiate each element from one another; and
• Discuss personal views about arts.

Introduction

Upon understanding any field, it’s important to have a solid foundation from
which to grow. In the field of art, this means understanding the elements of art. These
creative building blocks are essential and having a grasp on how they work is important
both for artists and for lovers of art. By gaining a deeper understanding of the elements
of art, it’s easier to analyze, unravel, and create any type of artwork from painting and
photography to sculpture and architecture.

In fact, many of these elements are taught to schoolchildren as part of basic


art education. But while the concepts may seem simple, once mastered they can
stretch and grow in all directions, no matter what style of art is being created or
appreciated. The elements of art are concrete visual components that work in tandem
with principals of art that organize and harmonize them.

Analysis

• What flower have you formed from the group of circles?

• Can you identify the elements of arts present on your output?

• Do you think with the absence of one element it would still be


called as an art? Why?

Abstraction

Line, color, shape, form, value, space, and texture are the seven core elements of
art and they often overlap and inform one another. Whether talking about drawing, painting,
sculpture, or design, these components of art all need to be taken into consideration. Once
you have a handle on these seven visual elements, it’s even easier to create your own art.

1. Line

These marks span a distance between


two points and can be straight or curved.
In visual art, lines don’t only need to be
made with marks and outlines. They can
also be implied or abstract. Whether two-
dimensional or three-dimensional,
there’s no denying that lines have a huge
impact on the rest of the elements of art.
They can be used to create shape and
form, as well as give a sense of depth and
structure. Lines are the foundation of
drawing and are a powerful tool unto
themselves.

Using different types of lines—


continuous, broken, vertical, jagged,
horizontal—drastically changes the
psychology of an artwork, impacting the
viewer greatly.
(rose line drawing)

2. Color

By working with hue, value, and


intensity—three building blocks of
colors—artists can tap into a wide range
of emotions. There’s nothing that changes
an artwork’s emotional impact more than
color. Masters like Van Gogh, Monet,
and Toulouse-Lautrec all expertly
manipulated color in their art to provoke
different feelings. Color can be used
symbolically or to create a pattern. It can
be selected for contrast or to set a specific
mood.

A deep understanding of color


theory helps any artist make better use of
the colors they have at their disposal.

(color pencil art)

3. Color

The result of closed lines, shapes are


two-dimensional, flat, and only have height
and width. Geometric shapes like circles and
squares are mathematical and precise, while
organic shapes take cues from nature and
tend to be curved and abstract.

Henri Matisse‘s collage art makes


great use of organic shapes, while Piet
Mondrian is known for relying on geometric
shapes in his paintings. Shapes can be used
to control how we perceive a composition. For
instance, triangles can help draw the eye to a
particular point, while circles represent
continuity.

(collage art)

4. Form

When a shape acquires depth and


becomes three-dimensional, then it
takes on form. Cylinders, pyramids, and
spheres are some of the more common
forms, though they can also be
amorphous. In sculpture, form is of the
utmost importance, though it can easily
be introduced into drawing and painting
using 3D art techniques. Baroque
sculptor Bernini was a master of form,
carving his sculptures in a way that gave
enjoyment from any perspective.

Form is also a big consideration in


architecture, with acclaimed architects
like Frank Lloyd-Wright, Zaha Hadid,
and Tadao Ando giving careful
consideration to this element in their
designs.

(form art)

5. Value

Related to color, value is the


lightness and darkness of a color. The
lightest value is white and the darkest
value is black, with the difference
between them defined as the contrast.
Playing with value can not only change
certain forms, but also influence the
mood of the artwork. Value is so
important that the Italians created a
term—chiaroscuro—that specifically
refers to the use of light and dark in a
piece of art. Baroque painter
Caravaggio was a master of
using chiaroscuro in his moody oil
paintings.

Photographer Ansel Adams is


another example of an artist who
expertly used value to his advantage by
using areas of contrast to create interest
in his landscape photography.
(Tonal value drawing)

6. Space

This element of art can be


manipulated based on how an artist
places lines, shapes, forms, and color.
The placement of these other elements
creates space. Space can be either
positive or negative. Positive space is
an area occupied by an object or form,
while negative space is an area that
runs between, through, around, or within
objects. Artists often think about the
foreground, middle ground, and
background of their artwork,
purposefully placing shapes and lines
throughout the space to achieve the
perfect composition.

A sense of depth in two-


dimensional works is often achieved
by perspective, which itself can rely on
lines or colors.

(depth in art space)

7. Texture

Texture is an element of art that


also plays to our sense of touch. It’s
defined as a description of the way
something feels or looks like it would
feel. Sometimes we’re speaking about
an actual texture that can be felt, as in
the case of Icelandic artist Hrafnhildur
Arnardóttir, who creates installation art
using synthetic hair. Other times, the
texture is an implied visual texture that
is two-dimensional. Smooth, rough,
hard, soft, furry, fluffy, and bumpy are
just some different textures that evoke
different responses.

For instance, an artist looks for


a hyper realistic result would want
clouds to appear fluffy, while another
artist wishing to subvert conventions
might play with texture to create a
surreal experience for the viewer. 19th-
century sculptor Antonio Canova was a
master of this, as exemplified by his
portrait of Napoleon’s sister where
she’s resting on a cushion that seems
so soft and touchable, it’s hard to
believe that it’s marble. (textures in arts)

Lesson Principle of Arts and Design


3
Objectives:

• Identify the seven principles of arts and design;


• Differentiate each principle from another;
• Differentiate views of arts from traditional to contemporary; and
• Explain understanding about the principles of design.

Introduction

The principles of design are the rules a designer must follow to create an
effective and attractive composition. Design differs from art in that it has to have a
purpose. Visually, this functionality is interpreted by making sure an image has a center
of attention, a point of focus.

The 7 principles of art and design

1. Balance

Balance refers to the visual weight of the elements of the composition. It is a sense
that the painting feels stable and "feels right." Imbalance causes a feeling of discomfort
in the viewer.

Balance can be achieved in 3 different ways:

Symmetry, in which both sides of a composition have the same elements in the same
position, as in a mirror-image, or the two sides of a face.

Asymmetry, in which the composition is balanced due to the contrast of any of the
elements of art. For example, a large circle on one side of a composition might be
balanced by a small square on the other side.

Radial symmetry, in which elements are equally spaced around a central point, as in
the spokes coming out of the hub of a bicycle tire.

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


56
57
67
2. Contrast

Contrast is the difference between elements of art in a composition, such that each
element is made stronger in relation to the other. When placed next to each other,
contrasting elements command the viewer's attention. Areas of contrast are among the first
places that a viewer's eye is drawn.

Contrast can be achieved by juxtapositions of any of the elements of


art. Negative/Positive space is an example of contrast. Complementary colors placed side
by side is an example of contrast. Notan is an example of contrast.

(Japanese notan art)

3. Emphasis

Emphasis is when the artist creates an area of the composition that is visually
dominant and com mands the viewer's attention. This is often achieved by contrast.

(Art design emphasis)

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


56
59
68

4. Movement

Movement is the result of using the elements of art such that they move the
viewer's eye around and within the image. A sense of movement can be created by
diagonal or curvy lines, either real or implied, by edges, by the illusion of space, by
repetition, by energetic mark-making.

(visual movement in art)

5. Pattern

Pattern is the uniform repetition of any of the elements of art or any combination
thereof. Anything can be turned into a pattern through repetition. Some classic patterns
are spirals, grids, weaves. For examples of different pattern types see the Artlandia
Glossary of Pattern Design. A popular drawing practice is Zentangles, in which an
abstract or representational outline is divided into different areas, each of which contains
a unique pattern.

(zentangle woman inspired)

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


59
6069

6. Rhythm

Rhythm is created by movement implied through the repetition of elements of art


in a non-uniform but organized way. It is related to rhythm in music. Unlike pattern, which
demands consistency, rhythm relies on variety.

(rhythm in art)

7. Unity/Variety

Unity/Variety You want your painting to feel unified such that all the elements fit
together comfortably. Too much unity creates monotony, too much variety creates
chaos. You need both. Ideally, you want areas of interest in your composition along with
places for your eye to rest.

Art is a part of our culture. It should be given importance by the people. It is the
expression of our creative ideas and imagination. It has different forms such as the visual
arts, sculpture, music, literature, theater, films, and other ways that artists choose as a
medium for their craft.

Art transcends time. It transcends the artist who was responsible in its creation. It
shatters barriers and goes beyond them to be able to share its message and speak of its
meaning. Art rises above language, class, religion, gender, and other factors that seem to
divide the world. Art brings people together.

Module Highlights

• The various classifications of art include: fine art, visual art, plastic art,
performance art, applied art and decorative art.

• The seven core elements of arts are Line, color, shape, form, value, space,
and texture. These elements often overlap and inform one another.

• The seven principles of arts and designs are balance, emphasis, contrast,
movement, pattern, rhythm, and unity/variety.

Lesson
1 Health and Wellness

Objectives
• Reflect on the importance of mental and physical health;
• Identify the factors of good health and preserving health; and
• Explain your personal understanding of health and wellness.

Introduction

“Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely
the absence of disease or infirmity.” This means that health is a resource to support an
individual’s function in wider society, rather than an end in itself. A healthful lifestyle
provides the means to lead a full life with meaning and purpose.

Analysis

After doing the activity, what do you think is in need as of


today in times of pandemic?

Abstraction

Mental and physical health are probably the two most frequently discussed types of
health. Spiritual, emotional, and financial health also contribute to overall health. Medical
experts have linked these to lower stress levels and improved mental and physical well-
being.

People with better financial health, for example, may worry less about finances and
have the means to buy fresh food more regularly. Those with good spiritual health may feel
a sense of calm and purpose that fuels good mental health.

Physical health

A person who has good physical health is likely to have bodily functions and
processes working at their peak. This is not only due not only to an absence of disease.
Regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and adequate rest all contribute to good health. People
receive medical treatment to maintain the balance, when necessary.

Physical well-being involves pursuing a healthful lifestyle to decrease the risk of


disease. Maintaining physical fitness, for example, can protect and develop the endurance
of a person’s breathing and heart function, muscular strength, flexibility, and body
composition.

Looking after physical health and well-being also involves reducing the risk of an
injury or health issue, such as:

• minimizing hazards in the workplace


• using contraception when having sex
• practicing effective hygiene
• avoiding the use of tobacco, alcohol, or illegal drugs
• taking the recommended vaccines for a specific condition or country when
traveling

Good physical health can work in tandem with mental health to improve a person’s
overall quality of life.

Mental health

According to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, mental health refers
to a person’s emotional, social, and psychological well-being. Mental health is as important
as physical health as part of a full, active lifestyle.

It is harder to define mental health than physical health because many psychological
diagnoses depend on an individual’s perception of their experience.
With improvements in testing, however, doctors are now able to identify some physical signs
of some types of mental illness in CT scans and genetic tests.

Good mental health is not only categorized by the absence of depression, anxiety,
or another disorder. It also depends on a person’s ability to:

• enjoy life
• bounce back after difficult experiences and adapt to adversity
• balance different elements of life, such as family and finances
• feel safe and secure
• achieve their full potential

Physical and mental health have strong connections. For example, if a chronic illness
affects a person’s ability to complete their regular tasks, it may lead to depression and
stress. These feelings could be due to financial problems or mobility issues. A mental illness,
such as depression or anorexia, can affect body weight and overall function.

It is important to approach “health” as a whole, rather than as a series of separate


factors. All types of health are linked, and people should aim for overall well-being and
balance as the keys to good health.

Factors for good health

Good health depends on a wide range of factors.

Genetic factors

A person is born with a variety of genes. In some people, an unusual genetic pattern
or change can lead to a less-than-optimum level of health. People may inherit genes from
their parents that increase their risk for certain health conditions.

Environmental factors

Environmental factors play a role in health. Sometimes, the environment alone is


enough to impact health. Other times, an environmental trigger can cause illness in a person
who has an increased genetic risk of a particular disease.

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


63
76
65

Access to healthcare plays a role, but the WHO suggest that the following factors
may have a more significant impact on health than this:

• where a person lives


• the state of the surrounding environment
• genetics
• their income
• their level of education
• employment status

It is possible to categorize these as follows:

• The social and economic environment: This may include the financial status
of a family or community, as well as the social culture and quality of relationships.

• The physical environment: This includes which germs exist in an area, as well
as pollution levels.

• A person’s characteristics and behaviors: A person’s genetic makeup and


lifestyle choices can affect their overall health.

Preserving health

The best way to maintain health is to preserve it through a healthful lifestyle rather
than waiting until sickness or infirmity to address health problems. People use the name
wellness to describe this continuous state of enhanced well-being.

The WHO define wellness as follows:

“Wellness is the optimal state of health of individuals and groups. There are two
focal concerns: the realization of the fullest potential of an individual physically,
psychologically, socially, spiritually, and economically, and the fulfillment of one’s roles and
expectations in the family, community, place of worship, and other settings.” Wellness
promotes active awareness of and participating in measures that preserve health, both as
an individual and in the community. Maintaining wellness and optimal health is a lifelong,
daily commitment.

Steps that can help people attain wellness include:

• eating a balanced, nutritious diet from as many natural sources as possible


• engaging in at least 150 minutes of moderate to high-intensity exercise every week,
according to the American Heart Association
• screening for diseases that may present a risk
• learning to manage stress effectively
• engaging in activities that provide purpose
• connecting with and caring for other people
• maintaining a positive outlook on life
• defining a value system and putting it into action

The definition of peak health is highly individual, as are the steps a person may take
to get there. Every person has different health goals and a variety of ways to achieve them.
It may not be possible to avoid disease altogether. However, a person should do as much
as they can to develop resilience and prepare the body and mind to deal with illnesses as
they arise.

2. What would you do to lessen or eliminate your unhealthy habits?

3. Would you recommend to others your healthy routines?

4. What must be done to avoid illnesses or any type of diseases?

Abstraction
Wellness is an active process, and you are in the driver’s seat. Let’s break down
some components of wellness…

1. Physical Wellness:

This is probably the first thing you think of when you think of health and
wellness. But physical health is much more than “losing a few pounds”. Physical
wellness is taking the necessary steps to maintain optimal health and functioning.
This includes participating in physical activity and maintaining proper nutrition by
eating a well-balanced diet.
Some ideas to achieve physical wellness:
• participate in physical activity every day for 30 minutes
• take the stairs instead of the elevator
• learn how to read nutrition labels
• eat a variety of foods and understand portion sizes
• maintain a regular sleep schedule.

2. Emotional Wellness:

This includes stress management, self-care, relaxation, and


understanding/managing your emotions. It allows you to recognize and understand
your emotions, cope with them, and express them.
• Take time for yourself to process, unwind, rejuvenate by finding a few
minutes to be alone each day.
• Stay positive! write notes to yourself, stick post-it’s around the house/office
to remind yourself.
Foundation of MAPEH Page |

• Maintain a gratitude practice.


• Explore and practice mindfulness.
• Give yourself grace, see all opportunities as experiences for learning and
growth.

3. Spiritual Wellness:

This can refer to religion, values, faith, ethics, morals, etc. It allows you to be
in touch with yourself and what you believe in. In this aspect you are likely to find
meaning, purpose, appreciation, and your guiding compass.
• If you identify with a specific religion, continue to explore that. If you don’t, be
open to exploring different belief systems.
• Meditate
• Take time for self-inquiry, get curious about knowing yourself and what you
align with.
• Maintain your spiritual or religious practices.

4. Social Wellness:

This has to do with the relationships you have and interaction with others,
how you relate and connect with others. Having strong and positive relationships
provides you with support as well as self-esteem, joy, and connection.
• Join a club or organization that interests you
• Take the time to call an old friend to catch up
• Keep in touch with supportive friends and family, distance yourself from toxic
individuals
• Identify what you look for in social relationships, what you need, and what
you can give

5. Environmental Wellness:

This refers to your relationship with your environment, living in harmony with
the Earth, and taking care of the surroundings. Just like plants, we need sunlight,
fresh air, and fresh water to thrive.
• Recycle, conserve energy, reduce your footprint
• Spend time outside
• Try earthing

Foundation of MAPEH Page |


67
8170
6. Occupational Wellness:

This refers to how we interact with our job, our achievements at work, and
our outlook of the work we do. Our attitude toward our work directly influences our
overall health.
• Explore different career options, if you’re not doing what you love investigate
alternative jobs.
• If a career switch isn’t in your cards (and even if it is) look into non-
paid/volunteer work that interests and motivates you.
• Set realistic career goals, and work toward them.

7. Intellectual Wellness:

This refers to participation in new and creative activities, learning and


exploring new skills.
• Try something new, explore new hobbies
• Be open-minded
• Travel
• Find new ways to be creative

Types of personal hygiene

Each person’s idea of personal hygiene differs. These main categories are a useful
place to start for building good hygiene habits:

Toilet hygiene

Wash your hands after you use the restroom. Scrub with soap for 20 to 30 seconds,
and be sure to clean between your fingers, on the back of your hands, and under your nails.
Rinse with warm water, and dry with a clean towel.

If you don’t have running water or soap, an alcohol-based hand sanitizer will also
work. Use one that’s at least 60 percent alcohol.

Shower hygiene

Personal preference may dictate how often you wish to shower, but most people will
benefit from a rinse at least every other day. Showering with soap helps rinse away dead
skin cells, bacteria, and oils.

You should also wash your hair at least twice a week. Shampooing your hair and
scalp helps remove skin buildup and protects against oily residues that can irritate your skin.

Nail hygiene

Trim your nails regularly to keep them short and clean. Brush under them with a nail
brush or washcloth to rinse away buildup, dirt, and germs.

Tidying your nails helps you prevent spreading germs into your mouth and other
body openings. You should also avoid biting your nails.

Teeth hygiene

Good dental hygiene is about more than just pearly white teeth. Caring for your teeth
and gums is a smart way to prevent gum diseases and cavities.

Brush at least twice a day for 2 minutes. Aim to brush after you wake up and before
bed. If you can, brush after every meal, too. Floss between your teeth daily, and ask your
dentist about using an antibacterial mouthwash.

These two steps can help prevent tooth decay and eliminate pockets where bacteria
and germs can build up.

Sickness hygiene

If you’re not feeling well, you should take steps to keep from spreading germs to
others. This includes covering your mouth and nose when sneezing, wiping down shared
surfaces with an antibacterial wipe, and not sharing any utensils or electronics. Also,
immediately throw away any soiled tissues.

Hands hygiene

Germs on your hands can easily enter your body through your mouth, nose, eyes,
or ears. Wash your hands:
• when you handle food
• before you eat
• if you handle garbage
• when you sneeze
• any time you touch an animal
Likewise, wash your hands after changing a baby’s diaper, helping someone clean
themselves, or when cleaning a cut or wound.

Side effects of poor personal hygiene

Good personal hygiene habits are directly related to less illnesses and better health.
Poor personal hygiene habits, however, can lead to some minor side effects, like body
odor and greasy skin. They can also lead to more troublesome or even serious issues.

For example, if you don’t wash your hands frequently, you can easily transfer germs
and bacteria to your mouth or eyes. This can lead to any number of issues, from stomach
viruses to pink eye. Not brushing your teeth can lead to teeth issues and plaque buildup.
Poor dental care is also a risk factor for several serious health issues, including heart
disease.

Poor hygiene habits can also affect your self-esteem. Looking and feeling
presentable can give you a confidence boost and a sense of pride in your appearance.

Other conditions may be prevented or the risk minimized by practicing good personal
hygiene. These are some examples:

• scabies pubic lice, head lice, body lice, diarrhea, athlete’s foot, ringworm,
pinworms, swimmer’s ear, hot tub rash.

Creating a personal hygiene routine

If you want to improve your personal hygiene or help a child develop better habits,
these strategies might be helpful:

Set reminders

If you can’t remember to do things like shower, wash your hair, clip your nails, or
brush your teeth, set a reminder on your phone. The cue will push you to the activity, and
over time, you’ll begin to do it yourself.

Use signs

Hang a reminder in the bathroom to wash your hands after using the toilet. Put a
little sign by the plates or bowls in the kitchen to cue yourself to wash your hands before
eating. These signs can help jog your memory and improve your habits. They can help both
you and your children.

Practice makes perfect

It takes time to learn a new habit. Start with a new habit at the beginning of the week
and make it your priority. Practice it for a week or two. When you feel comfortable with it,
add a new one. Overtime, you’ll establish the habits you wish to have.

Module
Summary

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely
the absence of disease or infirmity. The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of
health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race,
religion, political belief, economic or social conditions in life.

The health of all peoples is fundamental to the attainment of peace and security and
is dependent on the fullest co-operation of individuals and States. The achievement of any
State in the promotion and protection of health is of value to all.

Module Highlights

• Physical well-being involves pursuing a healthful lifestyle to decrease the risk


of disease. Maintaining physical fitness, for example, can protect and
develop the endurance of a person’s breathing and heart function, muscular
strength, flexibility, and body composition.

• Wellness promotes active awareness of and participating in measures that


preserve health, both as an individual and in the community. Maintaining
wellness and optimal health is a lifelong, daily commitment.
• Types of personal hygiene: Toilet hygiene, Shower hygiene, Nail hygiene,
Teeth hygiene, Sickness hygiene, and Hands hygiene.

Congratulations you have successfully finished the last module of this course.
It is hoped that after finishing this module you will be more aware about your health.
