Abstract

Nowadays the main task is to create conditions for the growth of population welfare. A large measure of
resolution of the problem – maintaining and improving the health of citizens of all ages, especially the younger generation. Daily physical activity combines various motor actions performed in daily life and labor activities. It is essential for human body optimal functioning, as well as is the basis for a healthy life. Objective of the research – to identify the level of daily motor activity of pupils of 5–6 classes. As a definition of studentsʼ daily motor activity, timing technique, developed by University of Framingham, is served. It is based on the registration of teensʼ activity during the day. Using this method, the opportunity to compare performance and
determine the index of daily physical activity was received. The research results show that the structure of daily motor activity of pupils aged 11–12 consists from the following regimes: basic, sitting, low, medium and high. Pupils who regularly deal with not only the mandatory forms of physical education and of school work,
but additionally take part in various sports and public events at the school and city level have a sufficient degree of physical activity. Those pupils, who have insufficient physical activity, preferably have different morph functional abnormalities of the body and existing chronic diseases. The level of studentsʼ motor activity is affected by physical culture tradition in school, available material resources, and the level of professional skill of teachers of physical education, teaching staff, and school administration. It is also
associated with underestimation of recreational and educational role of physical education and lack of understanding of that physical activity largely depends on the students themselves. Research results of daily motor activity of students have shown the differences in health indicators. The main mean of improving the daily motor activity of students is to develop new methods that will conform to modern pupilʼs conditions.
