Life is a battle, and in order for us to win the battle, we must be geared up with weapons, and of course, we must be holistically ready and prepared to face whatever challenges we may take along the way. Right? So, today class, we are going to enter a battlefield. On this battlefield, as mentioned earlier, we will be needing our weapons, and our greatest weapon for today will be the knowledge. Okay. So, today we're going to play the BOK or the Battle of Knowledge. Now, let's team up. This battle, of course, we definitely need our allies, or our teammates.

Considering the videos, the actions that you've seen, and the words describe them, what have you noticed? Yes, Jean?
[6:39]Okay, great. That's correct. The actions demonstrated in the video presentations are commonly done at home. Correct? Any other observations? What have you noticed? Yes, Lorene?
[6:59]Oh, brilliant. According to Lorene, she saw a lot of activities that are usually done when you have free time. Maybe Lorene loves to do some of those activities when she has free time. Am I right, Lorene? Okay, very good. Okay, with that, being said, okay, I'm very much impressed with your ideas, and it seems like you really are keen observers and very critical thinkers at that. Good job. Now, all of the words that you have mentioned earlier in the game, as well as the ideas that you have just shared with the class, has something to do with the heart of our discussion for today, which is recreation. Okay. Now, our mission for today is I want you to identify the different terms and concepts of recreation. Next is I want you to distinguish the different scopes of recreation, and lastly, appreciate the importance of recreation in day to day living. Okay, are you ready to confirm your mission now? Okay, that's great. Let us now define what is recreation. Okay, recreation is the use of time in various creative ways. It is a therapeutic refreshment of one's body and mind. Okay, we also consider this recreation as a time or an activity for leisure. Okay, when we say leisure, what comes into your mind? What do you mean, what do we mean when we say the word leisure? What comes to your mind when you hear the word leisure? Yes, Nicole? That's right. Free time. Great. Leisure is the use of free time to do something for enjoyment. Okay. You know that the need, okay, the need to do something for recreation is an essential element of human biology and psychology. Recreational activities are often done for enjoyment, amusement, pleasure. and are considered to be fun. Now class, having said all of that for you, okay, in your opinion, when is the best time for recreation? Hm? When do you usually do recreational activities? Anyone? Okay. I usually do recreational activities during, Yes, Keno? That's right. Okay, Keno thinks that the best time for recreation is during weekends or holidays, because he has no classes. He's away from any school works and responsibilities at that. Very good. How about the others? Yes, Abelle?
[10:22]Oh, wow. Abelle loves to do recreational activities when there are special occasions. I assume Abelle also loves to go to different parties to have fun. Am I right, Abelle? Okay, that's right. Okay now, having said all of that, what do you think about a life without recreation? Okay, we have mentioned earlier that recreation are done for enjoyment, amusement, and pleasure. Now, what do you think about a life without it? What do you think a life would be without recreation? Okay, Charish, raise your hand. Yes, dear?
[11:11]Wow, interesting. I agree. Life without recreation will make an individual unproductive. That's right. That is why we can say that recreation indeed plays a very important role in an individual's life. Now, let's dig deeper into this, and let's now discuss about the importance of recreation. Okay, for the first one, physical health. Okay, a large part of recreation is physical in nature. Okay, a lot of these recreational activities that we are doing every day, are physical in nature, just like some sort of dances, games, and sports that we usually engage in, like playing basketball, playing volleyball, or other activities that require an effort of your physical body.
[12:11]Okay, now, in what way do you think does the recreation helps in the betterment of your physical health? In what way does it help? Anyone? Okay, Abelle, yes.
[12:33]Okay, recreation helps because when you are doing these activities, you are making yourself or making your body active. That is very good, Abelle. Okay, let's now jump to the next one, which is the psychological health. Okay, leisure and recreation can relax and recharge the overworked individual. So, we all know that frustration is a product or a result of mental stress. So, doing satisfying and worthwhile activities that can relax a tired mind during our spare time, can help us overcome this frustration. When we overcome frustration, it makes our psychological health well, or it makes us psychologically healthy. Okay. Can you remember still the concepts that we have discussed earlier? Can you still follow? Yes, okay, let's see about that. Now, I want you to identify the word being described in this video. It refers to the use of time in various creative ways.
[13:57]Oh, that's right. The answer is recreation. Very good. How about this one? This is considered as an importance of recreation because a large part of recreation is physical in nature. That's right. Physical health. Wow, impressive. You are really listening. Okay, let's move on to the next one, which is the social well-being. Okay, recreation can be a source of happiness and satisfaction. Okay, we all know that a happy person can easily adjust to his or her peers. Right? When you have your friends around you, you can easily adjust. So, doing such recreational activities can help in boosting your social well-being, because it helps you create fun memories, fun activities together with your peers or with other people while socializing with them. Okay, it also helps in restraining or controlling the delinquency, or lessens the problems of the community as well, or organizations, and it also offers varied opportunities for better social relations. Okay, let's move on to the next one, which is emotional stability. People who balance work and recreation find their life fulfilling and their existence more meaningful. Okay now, in what way does recreation help in your emotional stability? Anyone? How does recreation help in your emotional stability?
[15:41]Yes, Ramiel?
[15:46]Oh, when he does things that make him happy, through those activities, that makes him emotionally stable and stress-free. Very good observation. Very good idea. Okay, and now, the last one is occupational. Recreational activities usually translate into monetary benefits for people who are engaged in businesses. So, we all know the examples of this, and I am sure that once in your life, you have experienced um engaging with this such recreational activities, just like um having fun in amusement parks, internet cafes, games, arcades. We need monetary benefits for this, or we give monetary benefits for the owners of these businesses. Okay. Because they offer recreational activities for us to enjoy. In exchange, we must give them monetary benefits for them to enjoy as well. Okay.
[16:55]You understand? Now class, do you know that recreation has different scopes? Yes, I am sure a lot of these activities are very close to your hearts, but maybe you just didn't notice that these activities are already the what we call the scopes of recreation. Okay. For the first scope of recreation is games and sports. First, let us um differentiate these terms. Okay? I know this is closely related to each other, but there is a remarkable difference between the two. Okay, what do you think is it? Anyone? What's the difference between a game and a sport? Yes, Lester?
[17:42]Brilliant. That's correct. A sport is more competitive in nature, because there is a rule, standard rule set for that. On the other hand, a game is less competitive in nature, because the rules of it can be modified depending on the participants of the game. That is very impressive, Lester. Okay, the examples of this one, under games and sports, are playing sports, it's like basketball, chess, playing hopscotch, or Pikoy in Filipino, playing volleyball, and playing board games, such as Twister. It's a board game that requires you to move and twist your body, right, if you're familiar with that. Okay, next scope of recreation is music activities. So, examples under this scope is playing musical instruments, listening to music, in an online platform, for example, Spotify, and singing in a karaoke. Okay, music activities refers to the practices or activities using any kind of music accompaniment to release stress, relax, and for entertainment purposes as well. Okay, great. Next one is the technology-based activities. So, the examples under this scope are surfing the internet, just like scrolling through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, playing at the arcades, playing online games, such as Valorant. What else do you have? That's right. Mobile Legends, others. How about the others? Can you give me an example as well? Okay, right. Yeah, playing Tetris. That's old school, but that's a lot of fun to play, I guess. Okay, next one. We have the fitness activities. The examples under this fitness activities are risk walking, working out at the gym, and cycling. So, any activity that requires your, requires a lot of effort from your physical body, as a form of exercise, or performing exercises is considered under this scope, which is fitness activity. Next one, we have the arts and crafts activities. So, this activity refers to any activity that involves artistic skills and imagination, such as drawing, or sketching, or cooking, as well, and of course, cross stitching, that is very famous among our mothers, or our titas.
[20:43]Okay, the next one. We have nature and outdoor activities. So, example under this scope are camping, hiking, and swimming. So, anything that has something to do with the nature is considered under this scope. Okay, last but definitely not the least, commercial and home entertainment activities. So, example under this scope are watching Netflix, or what we call also Netflix and chill, or watching cinemas, or watching movies at the cinemas. Okay, I know you all experienced, and I'm sure you missed doing these kinds of activities at the mall. Right? Or, for now, you just have to stay at home and be safe. Okay. Now, I want you to identify which scope of recreation this falls under. Okay, I will play a video, and you have to identify or distinguish which scope of recreation does it fall to. Okay? Are you ready? Okay.
[21:55]Okay. Yes, Danemark? Very good, Arts and Crafts. How about this one?
[22:07]Okay. That's right. Fitness Activities. How about the next one?
[22:23]Okay. How about this one?
[22:28]Okay, that's correct. Very good. Games and sports. I'm very impressed. You're really listening, and listening attentively and participating in our discussion for today. Very good, class. Okay. Now class, do you know that this recreational activities have a strong impact in our lives? Yeah, I can see you agreeing.
[22:56]Oh, we have found a crate. What is this crate? Let's see. This is the crate of wisdom. Okay, what is this crate of wisdom? This crate of wisdom will provide you with additional information and equip you with realizations, knowledge, and deeper understanding. Okay, and very much interested with this one. Do you want to open the crate now?
[23:36]Okay, you you had just have to to to tap your cameras to open.
[23:51]Okay. We will try to put inside the rocks. Is the jar full now? Yes, okay. Let's now try to put the pebbles. How about now? Is the jar full?
[24:18]Okay, how many times have you said that it is full, but we keep on adding more into it? This jar represents the time in our lives. The rocks represents our major priorities in life, while the pebbles represents the less important things in life, and the fine sand represents the things that we do for leisure and pleasure. And in proper order, everything fits just fine, but if the order of these things were put differently inside the jar, there would be no space for more important things to do in your life anymore. This complements now with our main topic for today, which is recreation. We only do these activities, or these recreational activities, as we've said earlier, during our free time. So, we must always put a deeper emphasis on our priorities first before doing anything else. Yes, I know. Recreation is indeed a very important part of our lives. It plays a very big role in our lives. It makes our life complete and happy. But as they say always, it's just a matter of time management and priorities. Do you understand, class? Can you now confidently say that you appreciate recreation? Okay, wow. Let's see about that now. I want you to access this link. Okay, I will send you the link. All you have to do is answer a question that is attached to it. So, there is a question attached to it, which is, how is recreation significant in your day-to-day living as an individual?

Wow, there are already a lot of responses here in our Padlet link. Let's see. Let's read the work of Reynald. Recreational activities help a person not only physically, but also in reducing stress and anxiety, especially in our current situation. Personally, when I do my recreational activities, such as playing games and exercising, I stopped overthinking and I can relax. Wow, can you see how important is recreation in your day-to-day living as an individual? Okay, I am very happy and very impressed with your performance today.
