PREFACE It is the purpose of this book to provide a course in physical training ada^6^d*to -the special needs of Philip- pine schools, taking into account the physical character- istics of Filipino pupils, the different ages of pupils in the same class, the crowded condition of many school- rooms, the restricted time that can be given to this subject, and the inexperience of Filipino teachers as regards this work. None of the so-called " systems " of gymnastics, which have proved their excellence in gymnasiums, can be used effectively in schools, since they all demand more space and more time than is available under average school conditions. None of the modifications of these systems, intended for school use in countries of the West, meet the requirements of Philippine schools be- cause of the difference in school conditions, teachers, and pupils. Many of the classes in Philippine schools are neces- sarily composed of pupils differing widely in age and physical development. Many of the buildings that must at present be used for school purposes are so small that classes are frequently two or three times as large as can be conveniently accommodated. The Fili- pino teachers, to whom instruction in physical training is often necessarily intrusted, have had little, if any, experience in this subject, either practical or theoretical, and equally important demands are made upon their iii IV PREFACE time and energy to equip themselves to teach other subjects. The physical development of an Eastern tropical people differs widely from that of a Western people in the temperate zone, on account of a difference in climate, food, and habits as regards physical activity. Conse- quently a course in physical training for Philippine schools should be designed to meet existing conditions, and should be especially adapted to correct the physical deficiencies of Filipinos.^ Any such course must neces- sarily involve a compromise on account of the conflict- ing conditions. In this book no attempt has been made to introduce new exercises, but to select such exercises as are most needed, to limit their number so that the work can be done well in the time available, and to restrict their character to such as can be inteUigently taught by those undertaking the work for the first time. It will be noticed that more ** heavy '' exercises (that is, exercises in which muscles should be tense) than *' light " exercises have been given. This is warranted by the primary need of the Filipinos for the power of resist- ance, by the short time available for physical training in each day's programme, and by the probability that pupils will not be engaged in energetic physical activity outside of the schoolroom. It is, however, essential that every class should begin with the first lesson in the book and take the lessons in the order given. The work as here outlined is pro- ^ Perhaps the most marked instance of a departure from familiar plans of work — the reasons for which will be readily recognized — is shown in the time given to exercises in which the pupil lowers the trunk by bending the knees and rising on the toes. These exercises are introduced early to correct the ill effects of the Oriental " squat." PREFACE V gressive, and the demand for increased activity as week succeeds week is not out of proportion to the increased power that should result from faithful work on each lesson. Some explanation is necessary as to the plan of work for ** weeks." Just as no two classes in arithmetic will be able to accomplish just the same amount of work in a given period, so no two classes in physical training will be able to acquire the same degree of proficiency in the same time. This plan is based on more than three years' observation of Filipino pupils and is believed to be consistent with what an average class can do. The photographs illustrating this book, with the ex- ception of group photographs, show the pupil in a special suit, since it was found that native dress obscured the lines of the body. The success of any course in physical training in the primary schools of the Philippines depends quite as much upon supervising teachers as upon a text-book. This work goes out in the hope that it may in some measure meet the need they all have recognized. Grateful acknowledgment is made to Mr. G. A. O'Reilly for his help in the study of the conditions which make needful for Filipinos a course in physical training and for his great assistance in the selection of these exercises. PREFACE FOR FILIPINO TEACHERS Importajtce of Physical Training for Filipiftos The importance of physical training for Filipinos is made evident by three well-known facts : the suscepti- bility to illness, the high death rate, and the compara- tively small amount of industry in the Philippines. These evils find their remedy only in that attention to the body which leads to health and strength. Careful, con- tinual, intelligent exercise is a very large factor in the process of making the body sound and vigorous, capable of resisting disease and of doing hard work without unnatural fatigue. Just as truly as the success of every great nation has depended upon hard work, so is such success impossible if bodies, as well as minds, are not trained into habits of activity. One should never fail to bear in mind the importance of the other factors which are necessary to produce health — pure air, good food and water, regular habits with regard to sleeping, eating, and bathing, and proper sanitary conditions. Most of these things, however, relate to home life rather than school life ; hence the teacher has to do mainly with regular physical exercise and bodily control. Requirements of a Teacher of Physical Training It would be well for the teacher of physical training to know as much of physiology and hygiene ^ as possi- 1 " Physiology and Hygiene," by John W. Ritchie, may be read with profit by Filipino teachers. Special attention should be given to Chapters III and XIII. vi PREFACE FOR FILIPINO TEACHERS vii ble. He should know the important work of each part of the body in keeping the whole body efficient, and just how physical exercise, proper in kind and amount, helps each part to perform its functions to the best advantage. He should know that continuous exercise develops and strengthens muscles, since muscles at work rid themselves of injurious substances and draw to themselves a greater quantity of blood ; that the more muscles are used, the better able they are to do their work with ease and accuracy ; that muscular work brings to the organs that flow of nourishing blood which greatly aids their development and makes them capa- ble of more effective work ; and that long-continued inaction changes bodily conditions for the worse, since the less muscles are used, the less they respond when the will calls upon them to act. Knowledge of the principles underlying bodily activity will not, however, be sufficient to make a good teacher of physical training. He must know the exercises thor- oughly and be able to perform them so correctly that pupils will make no mistake in following his example. Not only must he remember the commands perfectly, but he must be able to give them properly to his class. (See Explanatory Notes and Instructions, page ix.) It is also of the utmost importance that he should main- tain proper control of his body, not only during the period given to physical training, but at all times. If a teacher stands before his class in a careless attitude, with sunken chest, head falling to one side, weight on one foot, it is not likely that his pupils will put into practice his directions for erect carriage or bodily con- trol. It would be as unprofitable for a teacher to be careless in the control of his body, except when teach- viii PREFACE FOR FILIPINO TEACHERS ing physical training, as to be careless in the use of English, except when teaching English. The Infltieitce of Physical Training There are other reasons, however, besides that of example, why this control is advantageous. A teacher who is careless, from the physical point of view, can no more present with clearness the subjects he should teach, than pupils can recite satisfactorily if they are permitted to lean over their desks when seated and support them.selves against something while standing. Moreover, physical training, if properly taught, will be of great aid in creating and maintaining discipline. In pupils it cultivates habits of strict attention and immediate response, and in teachers habits of physical control and bearing, which are important in command- ing the respect and obedience of a class. Physical training makes an increased demand upon those who have had no previous experience in teach- ing it, but it yields a valuable return for the effort re- quired. The daily period should be welcomed as a pleasurable change — a brief rest from mental work, which shall make it possible to do the rest of school work more effectively. Good practice in teaching physical training may be had where several teachers are in one building and can form themselves into a class for ten or fifteen minutes' work daily, each teacher act- ing as instructor for a week or two weeks at a time. Careful attention should be given to Explanatory Notes and Instructions, page ix. EXPLANATORY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS 1. Class work in physical training should be given daily for fifteen or twenty minutes. The period should come as early in the morning as possible — not later than ten o'clock. 2. The work should be given out of doors where it is possible. This gives opportunity for change of air in schoolrooms, and enables pupils to breathe pure air during exercise. This is important, but classes should not be held out of doors unless sufficient space is avail- able on level ground and in the shade. When exercise is taken out of doors, after the com- mand Class — Attention^ the command Class — Form should be given. At the word Form, the pupils should go quickly to places in line,^ and at the words Forward — March} should march directly to the place for exercise, where the command Halt should be given. {a) For first-year classes the command Take Places — Form should then be given, the pupils stepping at once to places assigned to them. After the lesson the com- mand In Line — Form'^ is given. At the word Form, the 1 At the word Forward, stand with the weight of the body on the right foot, trunk and head erect ; at the word March, step forward with the left foot, and continue to march forward until the command Halt is given. At the word Halt, bring the rear foot to place beside the forward foot, heels together. 2 If classes are very large, it is advisable to form two lines, the pupils marching two by two. ix X EXPLANATORY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS pupils are to return to a line ready to march indoors, which they do at the command Forward — March. (See page I.) {b) For classes taking work after the fourth week of the second year, the command Right — Face or Left — Face should then be given, followed by the command By Twos — Count. The pupil at the right of line is to say One, the pupil next to him is to say Two, the next One, the next Two, and so on. The next command is Spaces — I, 2, 3.^ While the teacher counts i and 2, all of the pupils who have said One are to step forward two steps (left foot first), and all those w^ho have said Two are to step back two steps, all of them bringing their heels together at the count 3. After the lesson the command In Line — i, 2, 3, is given. While the teacher counts i and 2, the pupils step again into line, bringing their heels together at 3. The commands Right — Face (or Left — Face) and For- ward — March'^ are given, and the pupils return to the schoolroom. (See page i.) {a) >>>>>>>>> Halt V V V V Take Places — V V V V V V V V V Form V V V V V ^ If there are two lines, the front line should take two steps forward before the command Spaces — i, 2, 3, is given.

A programme of exercises is given for each week. The entire programme for the week is to be given each day of the week unless other directions are given with the lesson. At the beginning of each new week, the new programme is to be given and the programme for the preceding week dropped. Exercises that are to be continued are repeated in the new programme. 4. Exercises should always be given in the order indicated in the programme. Each exercise is indicated by a number. 5. In each lesson the name of the exercise is given first, and should be stated to the pupils clearly and dis- tinctly. In short exercises the name is immediately fol- lowed by a dash ( — ) and the command for action, which is in italics. No move is to be made by the pupils until the command for action is given. This command should be given sharply and clearly, with a distinct pause before it. For instance, Exercise I, for the fifth week, Series I, is Hands on Hips — Place; the words Hands on Hips simply xii EXPLANATORY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS describe what exercise is to be taken, no move being made by the pupils until the command Place is given. The longer exercises are given in parts, the name of the whole exercise coming first, followed by the name of the part to be performed first, and this in turn fol- lowed by — , and the command for action for this part. For instance. Exercise 3, for the fifth week. Series I, is Foot Placing Forward. Hands on Hips — Place, Right — I, 2, I, 2. Left — I, 2, I, 2. The words Foot Placing Forward simply describe what exercise is to be taken, while the words Hands on Hips indicate the first part of the exercise, no move being made by the pupils until the command Place is given. Similarly, the word Right indicates which foot is to be used first, no move being made until the command i is given. Then, after the commands i, 2, i, 2, comes the word Left, indicating that the left foot is now to be used ; but again no move is to be made by the pupils until the command i is given. A dash ( — ) always indicates a distinct panse, and the following word or connt is ahvays to be given sharply. This word or count is in italics or black figures and tnay be called the command for act ion , because no move is to be made until it is given, 6. The name of each exercise when first given is indicated by large capital letters. A detailed descrip- tion of this exercise is then given, but is not repeated in each succeeding lesson. 7. Exercises in which the arms are vertical should be omitted for classes of very small children, otherwise no additions to the programme, or omissions from it, should be made. The exercises should be given exactly as they are stated. For instance, Exercise 6, in the twenty-first week of Series I, is Breathing; On Toes; Arms Combi- EXPLANATORY NOTES AND INSTRUCTIONS xiii nation Stretch. While in Exercise 6, in the twenty-second week of the same Series, On Toes is a part of the pre- ceding exercise, No. 5. 8. The command Rest should be given after every exercise. If the exercise has been long or difficult, the time for resting should be longer than for short or easy exercises. 9. The command Position should be given before every exercise. 10. All exercises are to be taken with continuous movements entirely free from jerks. 11. All classes are to begin with the first lesson in the book and continue in regular order. 12. Under no conditions should the book be used in class. The teacher must memorize the exercises and commands perfectly, so that his whole attention may be given to watching his class and correcting mistakes. The memorizing of exercises and commands should not prove difficult since, when the work of one week is thoroughly learned, there remains only a small amount of new work to learn for the following week. 13. In giving a new exercise to a class, the teacher himself should always perform the movements first. Pupils should learn from imitation how to take the exercises. It is of the utmost importance that the teacher should learn to take the exercises properly, so that his example shall be suitable for the class to imitate. PHYSICAL TRAINING SERIES I FIRST WEEK CLASS — A TTENTION. At the word Attention, pupils are to sit erect, their arms at their sides, eyes turned toward the front. TAKE PLACES— FORM. At the word Form, the class is to rise quickly, and each pupil is to step at once to the place that has been assigned to him. On the first day, the teacher should assign to each pupil the place where he is to stand for physical training, that he may know just where he is to go when he hears the command Take Places — Form. When exercise is to be taken out of doors, follow the directions given on page ix. Explanatory Notes and Instructions. POSITION. Place the feet at an angle of sixty degrees, body and head erect, weight of the body on the balls of the feet, chin in vertical line with the balls of the feet, chest high, shoulders down, hips back. (See Fig. 2.) BREATHING— i, 2, i, 2, i, 2, i, 2. At I, take a deep breath ; at 2, expel the air. In this exercise, the teacher should count slowly, and the pupils 2 PHYSICAL TRAINING take long, regular breaths. The shoulders should re- main down, as in Position. There should be very little movement of the chest ; these deep breaths should show movement principally of the diaphragm and ribs. Un- less care is taken, when told that movement should take place at the diaphragm, pupils will make muscular con- tractions that are not controlled by breathing. Special attention should be given to each pupil to make sure that this breathing exercise is taken correctly. Z\.k^%— EXCUSED, At the word Excused, pupils should take their seats as quickly and quietly as possible. Note. — It is suggested that on the first day of the week only the commands Class — Attention, Take Places — Form, and Class — Excused be given, and that these three commands be repeated as many times as the period for physical training will admit, as it is of great importance that pupils should learn, at the very first, to take their places for exercise and return to their seats just as quickly and as quietly as possible. Much time will be gained and more effective work done later, if teachers are careful to have pupils respond very promptly to these first commands; On the second day, special attention should be given to Position, and on the third day to Breathing, This suggestion applies only to the work of the first week, and is meant simply to aid teachers in the division of time for exercises. It is, of course, not to be expected that special attention given for one day to an exercise will enable pupils to perform it perfectly; every exercise will need careful attention on the part of the teachers for many weeks.
