LESSON 1 ETIQUETTE IN P. E
In physical education, it is important to have a governing rule that is implemented for everyone
so that a harmonious relationship is built with one another. Without it, society would show impatience
and lack of respect for one another which may lead to disobedience, cheating, dishonesty and insult.
This lesson will give you the importance of etiquette in physical education in order to establish
a safe, fun and healthy environment.
Did You Know?
One definition of the French word etiquette is “ticket” or “label attached to something for
identification.” In the 16th-century Spain, the French word was borrowed (and altered to “etiqueta”) to
refer to the written protocols describing orders of precedence and behavior demanded of those who
appeared in court. Eventually, “etiqueta” came to be applied to court ceremonies themselves as well as
the documents which outlined the requirements for them. Interestingly, this then led to French speakers
of the time attributing the second sense of “proper behavior” to their “etiquette”, and in the middle of the
18th century English speakers finally adopted both the word and the second meaning from the French.
DISCUSSION PROPER:
Etiquette
According to Merriam dictionary etiquette is defined as the conduct or procedure required by
good breeding or prescribed by authority to be observed in social or official life. Another definition given
by Collins dictionary, etiquette is a set of customs and rules for polite behavior, especially among a
particular class of people or in a particular profession.

Having proper etiquette is essential in all aspects of life. Showing respect and consideration to
others reflects our cultural norms that is generally accepted in our society. Knowing how to behave
properly in a given situation makes you feel more relaxed and it gives you a sense of satisfaction of
protecting others’ feelings while in a workplace. Etiquette is meant to be a guideline using common
sense, fairness, politeness and concerns for others. Ignorance of proper etiquette will result disorder in
the society, it is like having rude people controlling the actions of others.
Sportsmanship
There are written and unwritten rules in sports that require people to follow to make it fair. To
ensure respect, fairness and safety in sports, it is expected for the people engaged to take personal
responsibility and behave in a certain way compliant with the rules to promote social values.
As defined by Merriam dictionary, sportsmanship is a conduct (such as fairness, respect and
graciousness in winning or losing) becoming to one participating in sport. Sportsmanship is playing by
the rules and principles and using sports etiquette. A real sportsman observes and do all the rules in
right way.
