P.E. lessons are often considered to be something secondary and compulsory. Today many pupils neglect them. And even parents try to do all their best to get rid their children of the “terrible” P.E. lessons. But they do a cardinal sin. Why is Physical Education Important?

School P.E. plays a great role in the individuality development of a pupil. It doesn’t only improve the health but it increases the communication level, social activity of a child.
The least tiresome for children is an independent motion activity. That’s why school P.E. lessons often provide children with free activity programs. They can be realized outdoors, in the gym and so on. Very often a definite range of exercises is done with music. It develops child’s hearing, sense of rhythm and pupil’s attention.  P.E. at school is obligatory followed by the medical examination – the examination of health, development and fitness pf children. Medical examination data allows the doctor recommends special physical exercises, workload and methods of its application.

Junior school P.E lessons continue to develop child’s stamina, deftness, hands and legs power, coordination of movements, skills of participation in team games. All these methods are applied according to the child’s organism peculiarities of the age. The greatest role is played by the junior school P.E. lessons. Why is Physical Education Important at the early age?

Junior school P.E. lessons continue to teach children:

• Breath right, combine motion and breathing together;

• Complicated walk and run;

• Hurdle race;

• Initial skills of long and high running jumps;

• Throw up and catch the ball with one or two hands;

• Throw the ball to the aim from various distances;

• Climb gymnastics wall by any ways;

• Sport team games elements;

• Swimming, skiing.

The upper school P.E. lessons are needed to form exercises habit for the whole life. School physical education should bring up the orientation to the healthy life-style of students. It should stimulate a person to further P.E. independent exercises.
It’s important to note that school P.E. plays a great role in prophylactics of the children asocial behavior.

But certainly it also has its own problems. Children with psychological and physical aberration are free from the P.E. lessons. But P.E. teachers should remember that such type of pupils need salutary influence of the P.E. on their organism.
