The methodology efficiency of intensifying the instructional-educational process in the physical education lessons with the help of functional music in doing homework
Actuality. The musical support becomes a beneficial and rational factor for carrying out the motor activity. Positive emotions as a result of using music in the activity carried out contribute to a large extent to avoiding the feeling of overfatigue, conditioning the increase in work capacity. The use of functional music as a psycho-pedagogical factor requires students to possess an artistic sense, but also a special training of the physical education teacher. The teacher must be competent in the selection of exercises, music, sports inventory (gymnastics rope, hoop, various weight objects, sticks, etc.) for the execution of the planned exercises. In this context, we will exemplify the grouping of physical exercises intended to achieve certain objectives, as well as the selection of musical tracks in accordance with the respective requirements for the execution of the exercises. If the student has assimilated the recommended exercises for the hands, shoulder girdle, back, abdominal muscles, lower limbs, etc., it is precisely then that it is the most suitable moment to combine them in a certain order and then perform them without interruption. But without a well-selected rhythmic music, the intended effect and pleasure from this exercise cannot be achieved. Music is a prime factor in this activity. For this purpose, the most diverse music can be used, but it must first of all be rhythmic. The second requirement concerns the tempo of the music. Too fast music can exhaust the body, and exercises performed in a hurry can cause a violation of the consecutiveness of movements. And the present tempo will not result in the expected effect. How should the right tempo be chosen? The student performs any movement at a tempo suitable for him, for example, swinging his arms forward. The student counts how many cycles (rotations) he performed during 10 sec., and the number of movements is multiplied by 6. The tempo of the music for this exercise is equivalent to 90 musical accents. We have determined that a tempo of 40-60 musical accents/min is suitable for extension exercises, turns and head bends for exercising chest muscles - around 70-80 accents/min., for hands, shoulder girdle, leg movements - 80-90, jumping - 120-150, and for running at a fast tempo and energetic dances - 160 and many more accents / 1 min. It is important not only to respect the musical accents, but also that the music is to the students' liking. It is good to use favorite songs. These can be popular, pop songs performed by well-known performers and bands. Relaxation, extension exercises can be performed under blues music, for the shoulder girdle - music in the style of rag time, various leg movements, such as running, jumping are combined with rock music. For some, contemporary music may seem too noisy and the tempo too fast. It is possible that exercises accompanied by retro-style music will present themselves as an optimal option. Likewise, the student's favorite songs such as tango, foxtrot, Charleston, Latin rhythms (rumba, samba, cha-cha-cha) will create a good mood, a pleasant emotional background. Therefore, the musical tempo, depending on concrete exercises, can vary. The purpose. Validation of the developed methodology, aimed at the use of functional music in physical education lessons. Research methods. In order to carry out our research, there were applied methods that ensured the achievement of the established objectives, among them we can list: the analysis of the specialized scientific-methodical literature, observation, processing methods and quantitative and qualitative analysis of statistical data. Findings and results. So, for a complex of exercises performed at home, which is accompanied by listening to functional music, it is necessary to choose a musical composition that in terms of size, tempo and character coincides with the movements performed with or without objects. Both the musical instrument and the cassette player can serve as means that reproduce music. Conclusions and recommendations. Therefore, the student's motor practice at home, accompanied by functional music, will contribute to: 1. Formation of students' motivation and interest towards the physical education lesson conducted through functional music; 2. Increasing the student's work capacity and body's immunity being a curative and effective remedy in the prevention of the student's health; 3. Development of motor skills and refreshment of psychophysical forces.
