TEACHERS should consider incorporating locally available materials and indigenous games into their physical education (PE) curriculum, says Patrick Miniti, a researcher from the Solomon Islands National University (SINU).

In his research, Miniti highlighted that local materials are not only readily accessible but also sustainable.

He emphasized that integrating such elements into lessons will allow teachers to be innovative while enhancing the learning experience for students.

“This is an activity that significantly improves learning quality for children aged 8 to 12. It is during these formative years that students develop essential skills, including fundamental movement skills,” Miniti explained.

His findings suggested that utilizing locally sourced materials can create engaging and effective educational activities, fostering creativity and skill development while promoting sustainability within schools.
