Unit Plan in Arts and Physical Education Unit-Life in the Community Introduction: The present trend of education is often characterized by the iqtegrating of activities, that is, a subject formerly taught in isolation, like Music, Art, and Physical Education are now taught integratively as one subject, in the curriculum, as "Arts and· Physical Education." In Arts, we include Music, Art, and Drawing, while in Physical Education, the different activities as games, storyplays, mimetics, marching and the like are correlated with the songs studied. This is also true with Art and Drawing. Learning situations thus are made more meaningful and functional if there is a carry-over of the songs studied in their games, dances, and other activities in Physical Education. Closely related activities are apt to give more inspiration to children for their per.. ' sonality and development. In as much as most of the songs prescribed for each grade are divided into "Experience Areas" it would be likewise suggestive to have a unit plan for this subject. I. General Objectives: A.
