Physical Education (PE) is about movement, exercise, and teamwork that build a healthy body and mind. Through inquiry learning, students explore how physical activity improves strength, endurance, and coordination. Instead of only practicing drills, they ask questions, set goals, and reflect on performance. Activities such as games, fitness routines, and group challenges encourage responsibility, confidence, and fair play. By connecting physical activity with overall well-being, Physical Education becomes more than sports, it becomes a foundation for lifelong health and cooperation.
