Physical education : my fitness journal [Student鈥檚 handbook]

Abstract

This student鈥檚 handbook, titled "Physical Education: My Fitness Journal," is a comprehensive pedagogical resource designed for secondary school students to actively engage with their physical health and skill development. Authored by Sarah Bonnici and Andrew Decelis and published by the University of Malta, the journal serves as a personalized tracking tool and educational guide.

The handbook is structured around two primary pillars of physical literacy: Health-Related Fitness (focusing on body composition, flexibility, muscular strength, and cardiovascular endurance) and Skill-Related Fitness (focusing on agility, balance, coordination, power, and reaction time). It provides students with standardized testing protocols and monitoring logs to document their progress over the scholastic year.
