There is an ongoing debate on which is beneficial between taking physical class as required classes and focusing on only academic classes. Some people prefer studying academic subjects for the purpose of preparing college entrance examination. In opposition to this, I strongly agree with the idea that students need physical education as required classes. The reasoning behind this is that student can improve social skill, have balanced educations, and enhance their physical health.
To begin with, students can develop social skill by taking physical education. While they are playing together, they begin to know each other and are able to learn how to cooperate in order to win the game. For example, when I was a high school student, I took physical lesson once a week. As I play basketball and football with my classmate, I could feel the feelings of cooperations and a sense of unity. Since every student studied individually after finishing classes, it was not easy for us to play together. From these classes, I could make many friends intimately and interact with them closely. In this sense, it is beneficial for student to have physical lessons for enrich their social skill.
Moreover, physical educations are good for students' balanced study. Most students get too much stress from the heavy burden of their academic study. Therefore, they need to be relaxed and refreshed by exercising their body. This is one of the best way for them to alleviate their stress. By doing so, they are able to be more concentrated on their academic study. To illustrate, when I was a middle school students, we could choose several activities as a physical education, such as sports dance, ballet, and tennis club. As we choose the subject each semester, we could learn different activities and it truly helped us to relieve our stress and recharge our batteries. In this regard, student can have balanced study by taking physical classes.
Finally, physical education make students stay in shape. These days, most high school student can not exercise on their own due to the lack of time. Therefore, if a school provides them physical lesson as a mandatory, they can get chances to exercise their body. For instance, When I was a student, physical classes were required subjects, therefore, a playground were full of students and students had many time to exercise. However, these days, many school replace physical lesson with academic subjects. Therefore, students' physical health weakened and their body become obese. Likewise, it is important for students to have physical lesson for their physical health.
To sum up, I firmly believe that it has many advantages for students to take physical classes as required subjects. This is because they make progress their social skill, their learning would be balanced. Additionally, they can have sturdy body. Even though academic subjects are important for gaining knowledge, however, physical education are also crucial for their healthy mind and body.
