Arts -- Ikebana (Japanese Flower Arrangement), is the traditional Japanese art of flower arranging., \"Ikebana\" means \"living flowers\" and emphasizes harmony with nature. Focuses on balance, harmony, and form, often involving asymmetrical shapes. The arrangement uses natural elements to give life and meaning to the display. Materials such as metal, plastic, or wood may also be included. Japanese Architecture - Japanese architecture is heavily influenced by religion, particularly Buddhism. Early Japanese buildings were constructed with wooden logs, covered with roofs, and were often raised on stilts. Characteristics include simplicity, natural materials, and integration with the environment. Aesthetic and structural developments were influenced by contact with China and Korea. Japanese Painting - Japanese painting often includes landscapes and natural scenes. Techniques involve delicate brushwork and are influenced by Zen philosophy. Ukiyo-e, a genre of woodblock prints and paintings, became popular during the Edo period. Common subjects include kabuki actors, landscapes, and scenes from everyday life. Sculpture in Japan- Japanese sculpture traditionally depicts figures of deities and protectors. Early sculptures were made from clay and developed later into stone and wood forms. Influences from different cultures shaped the evolution of Japanese sculpture. Sculptures were commonly found in temples and represented religious figures. P.E **Overhead Serve**: Used to start a play with more power than an underhand serve. Requires the player to toss the ball above their head and hit it with an open hand. Aims for a fast, strong serve that is difficult for the opposing team to receive. **Overhead Pass**: Also known as a "set." Involves pushing the ball upwards using the fingertips, typically preparing for a spike. Requires precise hand positioning to control the ball's direction and height. **Spike**: A powerful, downward hit aimed at the opponent's court. Often the third hit in a sequence (bump, set, spike). Players jump and hit the ball forcefully with one hand, aiming to score by making it difficult for the opposing team to return. **Blocking**: A defensive move to stop or deflect an opponent\'s spike. Players jump near the net with their arms extended, creating a barrier. The goal is to block the ball back into the opponent's court or reduce the spike\'s impact, making it easier for teammates to handle. Volleyball is a team sport, requiring collaboration and coordination among all players to achieve success. Volleyball was introduced to the Philippines in 1910 by Elwood S. Brown, who was then the Physical Director of the YMCA (Young Men\'s Christian Association). Health - **Lesson 2: Maternal Health Concerns** **Let's Start** Many people think that once a woman gets pregnant, she does not need to visit a doctor until she begins to look pregnant. This is not true, for regular visits to the doctor start at the beginning of pregnancy until after birth. This ensures maternal health and is integral to family health. Brainstorm some do's and don'ts for pregnant women. List them on the board, and with your classmates and teacher\'s help, check if they are valid, and if not, correct any misconceptions. **Let's Move Ahead** Here are some of the changes during pregnancy and after giving birth. **Changes in Pregnancy** One positive yet challenging experience that a couple faces after marriage would be the woman's pregnancy. This is a challenge primarily due to major physical changes. A woman who is pregnant stops ovulating and menstruating. The muscular walls of the uterus become more elastic and stronger. The cervix produces a mucus plug preventing bacteria from entering the uterus. A pregnant woman's heart beats slightly faster to allow enough oxygen and blood to reach the baby. These are just some changes that occur in a woman who is pregnant. Pregnancy also accompanies adjustments to the mental and emotional well-being of the couple. **Maternal Concerns Before, During, and After Pregnancy** **Pregnancy Concerns** Pregnancy is a critical stage in a woman's life. A woman who has concerns before, during, and after pregnancy needs to consult a doctor. Here are some concerns about pregnancy: **Before Pregnancy** - Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS): A condition wherein the ovaries fail to regularly release eggs and the walls of the ovaries thicken, which prevents ovulation. The condition results in hormonal imbalance, infertility, and difficulty conceiving. To address this, a woman needs to take medication and undergo surgery if needed to take out cysts in the ovaries. **During Pregnancy** - High blood pressure: During pregnancy, the blood pressure of a pregnant woman increases because of the additional workload of the heart. High blood pressure is not ideal for a pregnant woman because this condition may cause the placenta to separate from the uterus before delivery. - Placenta previa: A condition wherein the placenta remains in the lower part of the uterus. Placenta previa causes complications and excessive bleeding during delivery, which is why it is advised for a pregnant woman with this condition to deliver her baby via caesarean section rather than vaginal delivery. - Infections: Pregnant women need to be protected from infections because these may affect both the mother and the baby. All unsanitary procedures during delivery need to be avoided. To avoid infections, proper care, and hygiene must be practiced. **After Pregnancy** - After the baby has been delivered, the woman must monitor her health. Postpregnancy is a crucial time for a woman's health as her body undergoes recovery. Proper diet, exercise, and adequate rest must be practiced to regain strength. Hormonal changes and depression must also be addressed. Families and other relatives must provide all-out support to a woman in postpregnancy to help her recover fully. **Maternal Nutrition During Pregnancy** Maternal nutrition is necessary to meet the needs of the mother and the baby. Proper nutrition also ensures that the mother can sustain the baby's development and her body's physical condition during pregnancy. The baby needs nutrients to develop, while the mother's body must maintain good condition during pregnancy. - **Nutrients Needed During Pregnancy**: - **Folic acid**: Folic acid helps the formation and development of the brain and spinal cord. It also prevents neural tube defects. - **Iron**: Iron is needed for the production of red blood cells to transport oxygen to the mother's body and the baby. Iron is needed to avoid anemia, a condition caused by a lack of red blood cells. - **Calcium**: Calcium strengthens the bones and teeth and aids in the development of the nervous system, muscles, and heart. - **Protein**: Protein helps the development of the baby's brain, muscles, and other tissues. - **Vitamin D**: Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium in the mother's body. - The combination of all these nutrients ensures proper maternal and baby health. **Sepsis (Blood Poisoning)** Sepsis, or blood poisoning, is a condition of heightened infection and immune response. It is potentially life-threatening. For women after delivery, this may develop following an unsanitary procedure or as a result of other prevailing illness or complications. Abortions, caesarean sections, and infections after vaginal delivery are a few examples that can lead to sepsis. Sepsis requires early detection, accurate diagnosis, and prompt, appropriate treatment.
