THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION ROLE IN THE TEACHING-LEARNING PROCESSES OF PRIMARY BASIC STUDENTS

Abstract

Over time, the role of physical education in students' learning process has evolved, taking new paths and gaining relevance within the formative stages. It has moved from a purely physical focus to an approach that encompasses knowledge and social connection. This deeper understanding of its relevance in student learning processes is particularly evident in early educational stages such as primary school, where even infants are beginning to establish behaviors, knowledge, and skills that will form the foundation for assimilating and formulating knowledge. These skills establish the elements of understanding and problem-solving when faced with the various challenges they will encounter in their life experiences and education. Based on the above, this research seeks to delve deeper into the role of physical education in the formative processes of primary school students. For its development, the research methodology is framed within a qualitative approach, supported by the documentary analysis technique, in which, through an academic writing, some of the theories that concern and analyze the current object of study will be evidenced.
