Physical Education and Health (Volume I) is a textbook designed for senior high
school students under the K to 12 program. It supports the mission and philosophy of the
Department of Education (DepEd) in equipping students with 21st Century Skills. Moreover,
this worktext is designed to promote positive attitude toward physical activity and provide
skills that will enable the students to pursue an active lifestyle throughout their adult lives.
The concepts in this book are based on current research as well as recommendations
of world-renowned organizations such as the National Association of Sport and Physical
Education (NASPE), American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), American Heart Association
(AHA), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), World Health Organization
(WHO), Department of Health (DOH), and Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI). An
integrated and holistic approach was utilized in designing the various lessons. Moreover, the
book incorporates di erentiated evaluation strategies in order to accommodate di erent
learning styles of students. It will be a valuable learning resource for students who want to
become independent, active, and lifelong learners.
The book has two parts, H.O.P.E. 1 and 2, based on DepEd's curriculum for Senior High
School. The rst two units under H.O.P.E. 1 focus on tness, exercise, and healthy lifestyle,
while the last two units under H.O.P.E. 2 focus on individual/dual and team sports in
competitive and recreational environments as well as exercising safety and injury prevention

The rst unit is Exercise Prescription that serves as a guide for students in developing
their own training programs. It explores reasons why exercise is bene cial to one's health as
well as provides ways to remove barriers from becoming active. The second unit is Healthy
Lifestyle that discusses other components of a healthy lifestyle such as proper diet and stress
management.
The third unit is Exercise Safety and First Aid that focuses on preventing injuries during
