Problems of teaching Physical culture in a modern school

Abstract

In Russia in the last two decades, there has been a high growth of physically inactive children.
Therefore, the problem of preparing children for a healthier and more fulfilling life is relevant.
To increase the level of physical activity, the correct motivation of children in physical education classes is of paramount importance. The lesson should be structured in such a way that students understand why they are doing it, what benefits it will bring and why physical education is important for their development, taking into account how satisfied students are with the physical culture lessons.
Students of primary and secondary schools of the municipality «The City of Maikop are the object of the research.
The purpose of the research is to identify the problems and needs of students associated with Physical education lessons in a secondary school.
A theoretical method for the analysis of available sources on the issues under study, an empirical method (questionnaires) and a statistical method for data processing have been used in the research.
The results of this study indicate that physical education classes are held on a regular basis and students regularly attend them. Schoolchildren like Physical education lessons because they feel comfortable in the classroom, find physical education classes useful, and the content is adapted to their abilities, capabilities and desires. Among the reasons for students’ dislike of classes are the following: they consider the lessons monotonous, passive and boring.
In order to fulfill the curriculum in Physical education, it is necessary that the school has material and spatial resources, as well as teachers, to contribute to the achievement of the maximum quality of teaching.
