PHYSICAL EDUCATION

Quarter 4TH Weeks 1 to 10

FOREWORD
 This module aims to develop your practical and creative skills in reading and writing. It
introduces you to the fundamental techniques of writing fiction, poetry, and drama. Discussion on the
use of such techniques by well-known authors in a variety of genres is also presented in this module.
The lesson discussed here is devoted to the examination of techniques and to the workshop of your
drafts toward the enrichment of your manuscripts. You will learn how to combine inspiration and
revision, and to develop a sense of form in your crafted play manuscript.

This module is anchored to the theory of “Experiential Learning: Learning by Doing” by John
Dewey (1938) and David Kolb (1984. Anthony William Bates, the author of the article „Teaching in
Digital Age‟ cited Simon Fraser University‟s definition of experiential learning as:
“the strategic, active engagement of students in opportunities to learn through doing, and reflection
on those activities, which empowers them to apply their theoretical knowledge to practical
endeavours in a multitude of settings inside and outside of the classroom.”

Thus, in this module you will be asked to do series of learning activities that encourages you
to reflect on real life situations and experiences, produce something from these daily experiences
and observations, gain insights that will enhance your practical expertise in your field of
specialization as a HUMSS student. The learning experiences will be delivered through use of
technology to enhance your knowledge and skills in this digital age.

INTRODUCTION

Exercise, in general, is an essential activity in our lives. Exercising is a physical activity

consisting of movements that one follow in order to serve the purpose of improving one‟s health.
Exercising regularly helps condition the body to adjust to more physical activities. Regular exercise
also improves one‟s fitness and promotes a healthier lifest.

I. Activity (Let’s Warm Up)

Directions: Look and examine each picture.

II. Analysis (Let’s Analyze)
Directions: After examining the pictures, answer the following questions by writing a
formal essay with no less than 500 words

III. Abstraction (Let’s Learn and Discuss!)

 Moderate physical activity refers to activities equivalent in intensity to brisk walking or bicycling.
Vigorous physical activity produces large increases in breathing or heart rate, such as jogging, aerobic
dance or bicycling uphill.

Dehydration is a condition caused by the loss of too much fluid from the body. It happens when you are
losing more fluids than you are taking in, and your body does not have enough fluids to work properly.
Hydration is the opposite of dehydration. Hydration can be accomplished through a few different ways. One
way is the way we were just discussing, which is simply drinking water. Consumable other liquids provide
water to help with hydration too. These would include drinks like coffee, tea, lemonade, soda, etc. Even the
foods that we eat contain some amount of water. Some foods contain more water than others. Foods such as
lettuce, some vegetables, and most fruits are mostly composed of water. So, eating is another way to hydrate.

Overexertion occurs when you push yourself beyond your physical limits and often results in pain,
inflammation, or other injuries. Struggling to lift or push a heavy box, typing for hours at a time with no break,
even walking can lead to a workplace injury if you do it long enough.

Overexertion injuries can be categorized in three main types:

1. Excessive physical effort directed at an outside source (for example, a heavy box);
2. Excessive physical effort involving free bodily motion (such as bending or kneeling); and
3. Repetitive motion (such as typing or using a computer mouse.

Overexertion can be prevented by doing these steps. The first step is to follow all proper safety
precautions. If your employer offers equipment to make your job easier (whether it be a back brace or a
forklift), use it.

Second, use proper techniques when it comes to lifting, carrying, and other body mechanics. Lift
with your legs, set up an ergonomic workstation, and change your position frequently so that you‟re not
performing the same action for too long.

Lastly, take a rest at regular intervals and whenever you feel the signs of overexertion, especially
when doing repetitive tasks. Pushing yourself past the breaking point will only increase the likelihood of an
injury.

Hypothermia is caused by prolonged exposures to very cold temperatures. When exposed to cold
temperatures, your body begins to lose heat faster than it‟s produced. Lengthy exposures will eventually use
up your body‟s stored energy, which leads to lower body temperature. While hypothermia is most likely at very
cold temperatures, it can occur even at cool temperatures (above 40°F) if a person becomes chilled from rain,
sweat, or submersion in cold water.

Hypothermia is a medical emergency. If you notice any of the above signs, take the person‟s
temperature. If it is below 95° F, get medical attention immediately!

If you are not able to get medical help right away, try to warm the person up.

 Get the person into a warm room or shelter.

 Remove any wet clothing the person is wearing.
 Warm the center of the person‟s body—chest, neck, head, and groin—using an electric
blanket, if available. You can also use skin-to-skin contact under loose, dry layers of blankets,
clothing, towels, or sheets.
 Warm drinks can help increase body temperature, but do not give alcoholic drinks. Do not try
to give beverages to an unconscious person.
 After body temperature has increased, keep the person dry and wrap their body, including
their head and neck, in a warm blanket.
 Get the person proper medical attention as soon as possible.

A person with severe hypothermia may be unconscious and may not seem to have a pulse or to be
breathing. In this case, handle the person gently, and get emergency assistance immediately.

5
  Perform CPR, even if the person appears dead. CPR should continue until the person
responds or medical aid becomes available. Keep warming the person while performing
CPR. In some cases, hypothermia victims who appear to be dead can be successfully
resuscitated.

Hyperthermia is an abnormally high body temperature caused by a failure of the heat-regulating

mechanisms of the body to deal with the heat coming from the environment. Heat fatigue, heat syncope
(sudden dizziness after prolonged exposure to the heat), heat cramps, heat exhaustion and heat stroke are
commonly known forms of hyperthermia. Risk for these conditions can increase with the combination of
outside temperature, general health and individual lifestyle.

Heat stroke is a life-threatening form of hyperthermia. It occurs when the body is overwhelmed by
heat and unable to control its temperature. Heat stroke occurs when someone‟s body temperature increases
significantly (generally above 104 degrees Fahrenheit) and has symptoms such as mental status changes (like
confusion or combativeness), strong rapid pulse, lack of sweating, dry flushed skin, faintness, staggering, or
coma. Seek immediate emergency medical attention for a person with any of these symptoms, especially an
older adult.

If you suspect that someone is suffering from a heat-related illness:

 Get the person out of the heat and into a shady, air-conditioned or other cool place. Urge
them to lie down.
 If you suspect heat stroke, call 911.
 Encourage the individual to shower, bathe or sponge off with cool water.
 Apply a cold, wet cloth to the wrists, neck, armpits, and/or groin. These are places where
blood passes close to the surface of the skin, and the cold cloths can help cool the blood.
 If the person can swallow safely, offer fluids such as water, fruit and vegetable juices, but
avoid alcohol and caffeine.

IV. Application

Directions: Using the things you‟ve learned throughout this lesson, create an “Alphabet of Mindfulness” that
observes personal safety protocol to avoid dehydration, overexertion, hypothermia and hyperthermia during
MVPA participation.

Note:

Attach your Alphabet Mindfulness in the Activity Sheet.
