Author(s): Lijian Chen and Sunyue Ye
Abstract:This study recognizes the severity of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and addresses the issue of preventing the virus spread while achieving good standards of school-level physical education (PE). Accordingly, it examines feasible scientific strategies to implement offline PE activities during the COVID-19 pandemic based on local practical experience in Hangzhou, China. A regular practical mechanism to implement sports activities and provide PE based on the recommendations of the local government’s education bureau is well established for primary and secondary schools. To aid the local government in implementing scientific and reasonable PE programs, an operational guide was developed to carry out PE lessons and sports activities before, during, and after classes. The strategies discussed in this paper will facilitate the orderly practice of PE and sports activities in schools and the consideration of COVID-19 pandemic prevention measures, which can help PE teachers enhance students’ physical fitness and health.
