The study aims at examining the impact of exercise games on preschool children’s physical development. The study took place in the school year 2018-2019 in Dong Thap, Vietnam. A total of 133 male preschool children aged from 5-6 years old from four public kindergartens took part in the study and were distributed in experimental group and control group. 30 exercise games were employed as the implementation tools. Although the physical fitness of both groups increased after the treatment, the physical fitness level of the experimental group gained higher improvement than that of the control group. The results indicate that the exercise games are effective in physical education in general and in improving children’s physical fitness in particular. <p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0854/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

ABSTRACT. Education begins in the moment we are born and continues our entire lives having a crucial part during our school period. This a very important period of time because it is when a child develops forms itself and learns to be conscious that everything contributes to their development as human beings. The approaching methods are very diversified, but between the ages of 7-10 (primary level) are the most appropriate and very handy to complete these tasks. Two of these tasks have the main objectives to develop the motor qualities and the harmonious physical development of children. Through these active games, the objective of Physical Education is completed simultaneously, in an attractive manner, thus helping and shortening the development of these motor skills. The study has been conducted at Baia Sprie Gimnasium School, from Baia Sprie, Maramures county, with a total of forty fourth graders, between the ages of 9-10. The general preparation and result registration of the experiment took place in the school year of 2018-2019. All the tests and measurements were made rigorously during Physical Education lessons. At the beginning of the school year, in September, all the initial tests were made for both class groups. The final tests were carried out in May 1-25. The following research methods were used: observation, experiment, the mathematical and statistical method, the statistical mathematical method.

Adventure-physical education has been proposed to promote adolescents’ physical development, but little is known about physical activity levels during such lessons. Using the System for Observing Fitness Instruction Time, we observed students’ (ages 11–14 years) physical activity levels in co-educational classes during 43 adventure-physical education lessons at seven public schools. The mean percentage (±SD) of time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was 28.3% (±16.3%). The greatest percentage of lesson time was spent in two activities—high elements (24.1% ± 36.5%) and initiatives (22.3% ± 32.4%). When data were aggregated across all lessons, 40.0% of the time in high elements and 13.7% of the time in initiatives was spent in MVPA. Of all MVPA time, 31.5% occurred in high elements and another 12.6% in initiatives. Compared with traditional physical education lessons, less time is spent in MVPA during adventure lessons. Efforts to increase MVPA should target high elements and initiative activities.

Purpose: Physical education (PE) teachers’ assessments are often based on continuous observations of pupils. As certain psychological factors may mediate pupils’ learning behaviors relevant to the PE context, they may also influence academic achievement in PE. Thus, this study’s aim was to explore the association between pupil-related psychological factors and academic achievement in PE. Methods: Eighty-nine boys and 111 girls (12–16 years old) in lower secondary school participated in this study, responding to a questionnaire containing previously validated scales measuring pupils’ grit, mindset, self-perceptions, and situational motivation. The pupils’ final grade in PE was collected at the end of the school year. Results: A multiple regression model significantly explained 33% of the variance in grade. The self-perception domains—scholastic competence, athletic competence, and physical appearance—acted as unique predictors, explaining a small portion of the variance in academic achievement. Discussion/conclusion: These results support the importance of positive self-perceptions in relation to academic achievement in PE.

<p><em>The purpose of the work</em><strong> </strong>is to identify the influence of various components of the training load on the improvement of sportsmanship of athletes at the stages of preliminary training and initial specialization. <em>Research methods</em>. Students at the age of 17, who were engaged in the athletics section and performed regulatory tests at the level of the third sports category, were divided into 2 groups: experimental and control (10 people each). The students of the experimental group were trained in the author's 6-component training load program. The students of the control group were engaged in a program developed at the Research Institute of Physical Education and Sport. Investigated indicators of physical development (height, body weight, functional reserves of the cardio-respiratory system) and physical fitness (endurance, speed and power indicators) every 6 months for 5 years. <em>Results</em>. The developed program, which is implemented at the stages of preliminary training and initial specialization of athletes, provides for the development of specially oriented physical abilities and allows you to increase the level of sportsmanship. This is indicated by the dynamics of the obtained positive results of testing basic anthropometric data and indicators of physical training of students-athletes. It is also necessary to take into account the direction of development of physical abilities, based on the development of the main indicators of the cardio-respiratory system and the leading role of the mechanisms influencing the regulation of the level of general endurance, movement speed and strength characteristics in the whole organism. The program provides for a systematic, but gradual complication of physical activity, determines the appropriate conditions for the implementation of the basic principle of physical education in higher educational institutions and developmental training for students-athletes of various qualifications. <em>Conclusion</em>. The results of 5-year testing of students-athletes after the introduction of the author's program in the training process, indicate pronounced positive changes in physical development and physical fitness, expressed in increasing the level of their sportsmanship and achievement of sports results corresponding to the first sports category.</p>

The problem of prophylaxis of various deficiencies of the skeletal bone of preschool children and first of all of the spine, as a basic pillar in their development, was and remains in the sights of specialists in the field of physical education and sports. It has been shown experimentally that the means of physical education can and must be a basic support in terms of spinal deficiencies prophylaxis, especially in children of preschool age, in this case the age of 6-7 years. It is at this age that the first symptoms occur related to the appearance of one or another spine deficiency. If no direct action is taken, with the application of specific means to eliminate or reduce the occurrence of these deficiencies, the situation may become much more serious and much more difficult to resolve. In this case, a series of means of physical education are proposed in the form of complex exercises and dynamic games, which have been used successfully in the training process of preschoolers aged 6-7. At the same time, the influence of the prophylaxis process of spinal deficiencies on the level of physical development of the contingent given by children was researched.
