Approaches to health and nutrition are essentially universal, but in some cultures, methods can be slightly different. Keep yourself up-to-date with the latest health information and news from around the globe, and help widen the understanding of students on the complexities of health concerns.

3. Be creative and encourage creativity. Creativity is an important aspect of learning and understanding Music, Art, Physical Education, and Health. Again, do not confine your lessons to the curriculum guide. Always find ways by which lessons can be approached creatively, especially ways that allow students to create. When a student gets to create something, he or she feels satisfaction and fulfillment, sending him to an emotional state that makes education effective.

All MAPEH components effectively teach teaming, collaboration and inter-personal skills. Music is made richer by the collaboration of various instrumentalists and singers. Art forms gain a wider chance of interpretation with the fusion of various creative minds. Team sports can only succeed with effective group dynamics. Health concerns may be approached by communal actions benefitting more citizens. This inculcates the notion of being “global,” that no person can live by himself especially in this age of globalism. For the arts, positive inter-personal skills develop sensitivity, which brings depth in the creative output.

With the above-mentioned suggestions on how to approach lessons on MAPEH, students will realize the importance of its components even with the limited time given to the course. Creative approach leads to mind stimulation, increasing interest in the course components, which will make the learning experience more significant for students.
